I have a set of Kaesemann Polaroid filters for all of my R system
and VC lenses. Apparently, they are 1) handmade, and the
polarizing material is completely sealed from the atmosphere.
This to keep them from long term separating (I have had this
happen to a couple of Leitz polarizers for my M camera).
How much better they are optically, I don't know, except they are
very good products.

Subject: Polarising Filter Question
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain

Dear Fellow LUGnuts,
Now that I am using R lenses in addition to M lenses, I am getting
interested in using a polaroid filter. I have previously used circular
polaroid filters so that I could meter more easily with metering systems
that contained beam splitters. I understand that there is a way you can
use a linear polaroid filter but I found the circular polaroids easier to use.
Now in my investigation of circular polaroid filters, I have discovered the
Kaesemann circular polaroid filters. They are even more expensive than the
normal B+W filers. Does anyone know the advantages of the Kaesemann
polaroid filters?
Thanks. I'm having a lot of fun with the new 35-70 R zoom lens from Leica.
Can't wait to ge the winder.
Richard
