No, and it is a pity! But I'm sure Leica will correct that during the next few weeks.(Before vacations maybe) ;-) >Also I heard that the 13356 will work with the Contax G2 46mm filter >lenses 'with limitations': what do you suppose these limitations are? >Perhaps it blocks the AF sensors or is it simply that using Leica >accessories with Contax cameras is verboten? (g) I've tested that combination with G2 + 28 or 45 or 90 with 46mm ring and it work without any problem. All you have to do, it's to turn it a little bit, in order to not obstruct the AF windows with the hinge. The fact that the Polarizer is linear don't interact with the AF or the light mesurement.
