I like it, and with the adapter rings, it fits a variety of lenses. Quality is great, but some have found the lens mount can come undone. This has not happened (touch wood) to me. I also use an adapter for the Digilux 1 which is an oversized frame, which holds a 67mm filter. The gaps at the edge allow you to see the polarizing effect without "flipping" the filter into position. It works, but my 67mm filter is bit "cheap" and was bought long ago in my poor "registrar" days ;-) Cheers Christopher Driggett writes: > All, > I was looking to get a polarizer for my R-D1 and saw the Leica version > for 357 dollars.
