Has anyone tried adding a filter holder to lens adapters?

Re: Has anyone tried adding a filter holder to lens adapters?

Investigating further it seems DEO sell adapters with slot in filters (~$100) in EF-MFT configuration. And of course Canons new EF-R range includes a adapter with filters. The length of this adapter is longer than the filterless models due to the thickness of the glass.

Adding a filter behind the lens will change focus - this shouldn't be a big issue with longer focal lengths but could be for fisheyes etc. I may have to stick to adding gels in most cases...
