I fiddled with a new one for a week (Jeff's of KSP) but didn't like it at all. And Jeff says the new one is better than the old. Something about screw-in adapters vs. clamp-on adapter. The new one is screw-in and doesn't have adapters for all sizes. I know of people who have kludged it to E55. I do know, however, new (1970's on) polarizers don't have numbers on them. I bought some in 1976 (still have them) and they are numberless. So I'll continue to use the numbered Heliopan polarizers. They work swell. Jim
