Paul Gruyters Posted November 1, 2006 Share #1 Posted November 1, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I will most likely be purchasing the V Lux 1 when it arrives in Oz. I am suspecting I may need a circular polarizer due to our bright/glary conditions down here. A few questions since I have never used one before. A. Will it be possible to get one from Leica that will fit the V Lux 1 B. Do polarizers come with their own lens cap, and if so do those caps usually have a means by which you can thread it onto to camera body for ease of use. ie: take the cap off and just let it dangle until you have finished your shooting. If someone can help here I would greatly appreciate it. Regards, Paul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
