Pola Filter on D2?


Recommended Posts

Advertisement (gone after registration)

Is anyone using a polarizing filter on their D2?

If yes, which one and is it worth it?

 

I had looked at Heliopan but they are a bit expensive with a 69mm thread.

Hence I was considering a 69-67 step down ring, as 67mm filters are much easier to find and less expensive.

Good or bad thinking?

 

Thanks

Michel

 

Edit: purpose being for macro and landscape

I have some day discovered a Leica E72 (18673), I am using it with a step-up ring 69-72. (I am reluctant to step-down (risk of vignetting ?). It is efficient against reflections and to enhance blue sky. I also own a 69 mm (Japan-no name), equally good. If you are interested by this one, let me know. Vive Digilux 2 !

Pol-Alexandre,

Awfully sorry for my very late reply due to being away. :(

As your no-name filter is as good as the Leica one, I would indeed be interested.

How shall we proceed?

 

Thanks

Michel

I have been using a 69 to 67mm step down adapter on my Digilux 2 for years. There is no vignetting at all and unlike the step-up 69 to 72mm adapter, you can continue using the original lens shade.

 

Best,

 

Jan
