Cap sizes for Schneider Optivaron 6-66 ?

[verydarkroom]

Hello,

If you own one of the Beaulieus that has a Schneider 6-66 on it, could you please let me know the sizes for both the original plastic Schneider caps?

What is the size of the cap which fits the lens, and the size for the other cap that fits the 30/2 metal hood?

Much obliged,
Cheers!

Hello, the front lens use 62mm filter size and the back is a c mount standard. Jean

The factory cap for the 30/2 hood is marked SN 223/74. Its inside diameter is roughly 94mm. The factory cap for the Optivaron lens is marked SN 223/28 and its inside diameter is roughly 76mm.

The last sentence of the previous post should've read "The factory cap for the Optivaron lens is marked SN 223/28 and its inside diameter is roughly 66mm."

Thank you, Jean.

And thank you sciolist, these are precisely the dimensions I was looking for high and low. Chicken and egg, cart and horse. I had a chance to pick up some new Schneider caps BEFORE my ZMII arrived, so I couldn't really figure out which ones were needed. Much obliged.

Cheers!

I stand corrected. The metal lens hood is roughly 94mm. Jean
