Mine($1095) was delivered yesterday so I am just learning about it. But
right off the top you can screw filters on the very front of the lens
and also is a slot close to the Visoflex. Being close to the Visoflex
and in a slot allows one to use much smaller(and less expensive) filters
and it should be easier to turn the polarizing filter to the desired
direction.

Now I must find some used(or at least less expensive than B&H) Series 7
filters. The polarizer is first priority but I also need colors for the
SCALA film and/or to reduce long distance mountain haze.     Dale

By the way, for you Great Northwesters, there should be some fine Leica
moments at unicycle days near North Bend and at the top of the Pass
during the next few days.   Dale
