If there are threads on the inside of the lens then you would be able to use any of the screw in (B and W) or system filters such as Lee or Hitec. Lee also do wide angle adaptors which can help avoid vignetting

If there are no filter threads you may be able to get a push on filter holder such as the one supplied by Lee for the 50mil lens on the Bronica GS1, not cheap though

An alternative may be the use of bluetac on the filter itself and this can be stuck to the outside of the lens barrel

Many Thanks Dave,I will track your info, and see what I can come up with.Kind Regards Tom, G

Another possibility is the Lee "GelSnap" - a rubber band held filter holder. It works surprisingly well, and is very useful with lenses without filter threads.

Cheers Ole,All info is welcome,I will follow it up,Kind Regards Tom, G.
