I noticed the AE900u has threads for a lens or filter on the inside of the focus ring. Does anybody know the size? I will probably get an ND2 filter for it, but I don't know how to find the size. Thanks!

I have the AE700 and it used a 77mm filter. I think the AE900 is the same.

Does the 700 have the threads as well? It looks like the 900 was made for a filter and one would screw right in.

Yes the 700 is threaded. I have a KR6 filter on mine.

It is a warming filter that helps to improve contrast. It was not very expensive so I bought one. It has been on my 700 since I set it up. Not sure what actual improvements it makes but there was alot of buzz here about using it and many who had much success with it so I figured it was worth it.
