[Leica] B+W Filters on M8

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

I have been testing my WA Tri-Elmar on my M8 with the 1.102 firmware  
and the B+W IR cut filter. I am finding that the B+W is too strong  
and the lens detection + UV/IR filter setting does not fully  
eliminate cyan creep. At 16mm the cyan creep is quite pronounced and  
unacceptable with tungsten light. I don't see the problem in  
daylight. Since the Leica 67mm UV/IR cut filter will not be available  
for two months there is no way of knowing how well it will work.

I just noticed there is a thread on the Leica Users Forum that  
suggests the B+W filter should not be used for lenses 21mm and wider  
because it's too strong as I found.

I will be returning the 67mm B+W filter and will try another brand  
filter. All my other filters are Heliopan which I'll be able to test  
when I get my 21mm back from Leica for coding.
