Leica Q3 ND/Polarizer filters

Hey everyone,

Just picked up a Leica Q3 43 and I'm looking to get a solid polarizer and an ND filter (6-stop).

I tried the B+W 49mm Master high transmission polarizer from amazon, but it didn't fit quite right on the lens. The mount kept rotating and wouldn't stay snug, so I had to return it.

I have seen many brands like:

B+W, Breakthrough, Zeiss, Tiffen, K&f, Polarpro, Hoya

Anyone have recommendations for filters that fit the Q3 perfectly with solid performance? 

Thanks in advance!

I have a B+W 49mm Master Nano 10 stop ND filter - works fine on the Q3 43.

What do you mean by the "The mount kept rotating and wouldn't stay snug"? - polarisers are intended to rotate.

It felt loose and kept turning even when I wasn't intentionally rotating it to adjust the polarization.

I use Maven magnetic filters on my Q and SL3 with APO Summicron-SL lenses and won't go back to screw on types.  The glass is great and their NDs and Linear polarize impart no discernable color cast.  I particularly like the LPL.

I have the Zeiss T* polarizer and it fits perfectly.
