Have not been able to clean it to my satisfaction. You are probably right Mark, problem may be with B+W and not B&H. Other than this, I have had no problem coming from B&H's direction. ==Steve Caspersen - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Rabiner" <mark@rabiner.cncoffice.com> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2000 9:56 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] B&H Should Respond To This Message > John Hoang wrote: > > > > Mark Rabiner wrote: > > > > > I've dealt with B&H for decades and this ain't them. > > > > I've also dealt with B&H for a while and been pretty happy with them. > > > > UNTIL THIS MONTH, I ordered 2 B&W filters for my boss: 55mm and 60mm MC polarizers.
