I have a set of the classic B&W photography filters (four colours), and they are even in a case with the KMZ / Krasnogorsk logo - but I can't for the life of me find what lens they were for, nor with what piece of equipment I got them (I've had various FSU photography gear, but almost all of it is rangefinder - Kiev / FED / Zorki.
So here's the thing: they're marked M26,5 X 0.5. they're tiny. I get the basics on what that means (diameter/thread), but again - cannot figure out what piece of equipment this could be for. I've checked all the lenses in my possession, and one or two that I sold recently (eg a Jupiter 12 in Kiev mount). So far, can't think of what it could be for.
Anyone know?
Last idea, could these be for an eyepiece on something?

Most FSU movie cameras (and they made an awful lot) were supplied with full set of accessories including sets of filters.

Thank you! That explains it. I did indeed have one of these for a while, since passed on to someone else.Zenitar 16/2.8 fisheye:

I should have said - if anyone has this fisheye and needs the filters, I'd be happy to share with a member here for covering the cost of postage (from Ontario).
