The lee adapter will fit on the extension, though be careful not to use thin metal filter frames - I use high quality brass ones that aren't as inclined to deform under the weight of a heavy glass filter like that.

aha! Something I hadn't thought of. Thanks Digitalis.

Thanks guys. disco -- precisely what Digitalis said.

FA31

Been using the FA31 a lot the past couple weeks. Honestly didn't expect to, given my general disconnect with that focal range, but this lens might be turning me around.

Thank you. I cleaned it up slightly in post. There were Some obvious Dust bunnies present as I shot at F16.

without getting too much of a diversion from the main thread , I used a 58mm metal Filter adaptor screwed into FA31 which gave me enough offset and 58-62 Step up ring so I can now use the 62 uwa ring adaptor on FA31. believe it or not I had all the bits at my disposal

Yes I noticed the tell-tale cloud streaking and said "hmm, someone is looking at his FA31 in a new way!" ;-)
