OK, ignorant question mode.  One of the things I just discovered I owned (in
the bag of a kit I bought) was a Nikon CU filter. Oddly, it also seems to be
a 49->55 stepup ring at the same time.  Is that possible?  Actually, the
question is, what's the effect of the CU?  The seller also included a set of
Hoya +1,+2,+4, so he must have been doing some closeup work (the detective,
if you remember the story, you have to wonder what he was taking pictures
of).

Thanks.

Tom
