Hello,

Can anyone tell me what filter fitting my Rolleicord V has?

Also, is there an adaptor available that will let me use my Cokin P system
filters with it?

Thanks,

Simon.

Rollei Bayonet I. Don't know for sure, but I think very unlikely to have an
off-the-shelf adapter for Cokin P. Given the relative huge size of the P
filter, I wonder how that would work without blocking access to the camera
exposure controls. If you are dead serious about an adaption, try to find a
Bay I to Series V or VI [fairly common], then further Series > a standard
thread which in turn adapts to P. With some luck, you might find a Bay I >
threaded adapter which would then step up to a P adapter, skipping the
Series intermediate adapter.

Heliopan has one: Bay I to 30,5mm

Pretty nifty, but pretty expensive as well...

The P series are likely to be a bit large for this camera and may obstruct your
viewing lens. However, if you wish to do this, look for a Bay 1 to 49mm
adapter for your Rolleicord (you can find them on EBay) and then attach your
Cokin P holder to that if a P filter holder is made in the 49mm size. I think
I also saw a Bay 1 to 52mm adapter being sold at one point.
