Series VIII (8) Step-Down Filter Ring Adapter for 67mm Lens Filter Thread
Though I believe the title above says it all, I will explain a little more.
As you probably know, most common lenses allow filters and accessories to be screwed into them. These filters are referenced by their diameter sizes, typically in millimeters.
There are adapting rings, commonly called step-up or step-down rings that allow you to place a different sized filter on the lens.
This adapter ring is somewhat of a special type having a "Series" number designation.
So this adapter ring screws into a lens having a filter diameter of 67mm and allows a smaller size, which is known as "Series VIII" (8)
Going into Series Filter sizes is beyond the scope of this explanation, but essentially Series VIII filters are approximately 66.7mm.
So if you have a lens hood designated as Series VIII, you may now screw that hood into this adapter to use on your 67mm Filter threaded lens.
One more thing about Series Filter Adapter rings, such as this one. They allow special filters that have no threads to be placed inside. Then a special ring with male threads, screws in to hold the filter in place. Also, this retaining ring still will allow further Series VIII male threaded accessories to be screwed into it.
Note: No retaining ring is included in this listing.
The adapter ring is in good to excellent shape.
Please feel free to message me should you have any questions, corrections or comments.
Your Series VIII 67mm Step-Down Adapter Ring will ship by way of USPS First Class Mail, worldwide within 1 business day of receiving your PayPal payment. Your payment is expected to be rendered within 12 hours of the listings end time.
Thank you for your consideration.
