Hi Bill,
I'm no expert, but my 1st thought on this is: when you say insufficient back focus, Im just wondering how much is insufficient you mention, because a filter, I'm thinking a filter 'some screw in types is/can be only a few mm thick ?
So - I assume your focus train is fully & totally extended with absolutely no more room to extend, not even a few mm ?

Just for any other 'onlookers' Can you post a 'close-up' pic of your Focus train, maybe a hack with the actual focuser that may give a few more mm ?

But as said, Im no expert, and also not sure of the size shape of the filter needed, but there should be a thin screw in version, ?

Just added my Bobs worth
