My concern comes from the situations in which a polarizer is used to best effect: at right angles to the sun. I like to shoot in the morning and at dusk, and I carry my M slung over my shoulder and across my chest, so when I'm at a 90 degree angle from the sun, the lens faces directly toward the sunlight (or away from it, depending on which way I'm facing). Ok, granted, I could change my carrying style, but finding a cap seems a better solution--if one exists out there. Happy shooting, Dan
