May be worth a second look.
One could of course phone or email the company to double-check if unsure.

Teamwork in London sell Heliopan MC glass filters up to and including 105mm - https://www.teamworkphoto.com/online...lter-37-105mm/

I have some Heliopan filters and can see no difference between B+W, Hoya and Heliopan in terms of optical quality.

I have also used Teamwork many times for various bits.

The 105mm is not a cheap size - the law of supply and demand.

If you Google filters make sure they clearly say they are multicoated - not all of them are and some are even uncoated.

After hunting for a 105mm filter I came across this one. I'd not heard of Novo filters before but they do tick a couple of boxes - Nano multi-coating and Schott glass.

There are several sellers on eBay offering the Kood version in 95mm for around 20 pounds new. It is multi-coated, and comes in a slim mount, which would be useful for the wide angle lens. The lens itself is multi-coated, so the coating quality of the filter is probably of less importance. There’s nothing to suggest, however, that the Kood product is in any way of inferior quality.

Earlier versions of the 40mm used a petal lens hood, the later ones are 95mm threaded.
I made a hood for mine from miscellaneous bits lying around. I got the measurements from an old Focal Press book, Optics.

The 50-100mm zoom Zenzanon for SQ is also 95mm thread but comes with a twist on petal hood.

John,Éarlier in this thread you were talking about SRB glass filters, I have several of them to cover the range of lenses I have, ans out of curiosty I just looked at the storage boxes they came in and the label states they are MC HD filters, which I think makes them good value for money, I have used them for a long time now and cover every lens I have both MF and 35mm, never a problem and no problems with 24mm lenses,

Hi John,
Earlier in this thread you were wondering about the SRB range of glass filters, I have a range of the, covering every lens I have both 35mm and MF, and just checked on the storage box they came in and on the box it states they are MC HD filters, which I think makes them good value for money, certainly I have never had problems even using them on 24mm lenses
