* Filters and Lens Shades: The Ikoflex Cameras, with the exception of the “coffee can” use 35.5mm screw in or 37mm push on filters and/or adapter rings over the taking lens. The viewing lens takes either a Zeiss S27 (27mm screw in) or 28.5mm push on filter. Original Zeiss Filters and shades are extremely hard to find these days.
