Michael, this is the old *swing out* polarizer that's nearly as old as I am.
It's not a circular polarizer but I'm now told it works OK with the M6
meter.
Regards,

In my experience, all circular polarizers work OK with TTL metering. If you
are not sure if it is circular (e.g., if it is an older one), remember that
circular polarizers only polarize one way wnen you look through them,
whereas linear polarizers, whick are said not to work with TTL metering,
polarize both ways (from either side).
