Series V filters

[chas_ucla]

Does anyone know of a source for these? Or maybe an online camera store that might have them? I know Chambless sells some but what I'm looking for are filters like a "Star" filter for my Bolex 160. Series V are the "drop-in" filters that go into a bracket that is attached to the camera.

Do you mean like the Cokin "A" and "P" Filters?
I understand these are a 67mm and 87mm thread system respectivley using a specaial bracket and 6x7 plastic filters. There is also a system called the Lee system which is similar.

I would imagine Cokin filters would be available in any good photography shop.

Ebay???? You can usually find stuff like that there. Good Luck

Technicolour,
no the Cokin filters you are speaking of are not the same as the Series V filters...These are really small filters that were initially made for cameras that I don't believe are manufactured anymore. Anyway, if you've ever seen a Bolex 150-160 camera you'll see how small the lens is.

Yeah, Nigel, I tried E-bay...they are a great source for filters, but the only Series V I've seen are the common, color correction types...no multi-image, star, gradation, etc.

Oh well...back to the online search...if anyone comes across anything, please let me know!
