Subject: circular polarizing filter on M lens


Hello all,

Quite awhile ago I picked up a circular polarizing filter for my M lens (Model - POOTR). As I understand it, you dial in the effect with the filter off the camera noting the number and then screw it on to the lens and set it to that number. The "zero" should be in the noon position as you set it off camera, but when I go to mount it on the lens, it doesn't always come out that way. The result, non-polarized images, and I have kinda given up using it. I am going to FLA for a couple of weeks and am hoping to give this another try.

Is there any trick or am I missing something when using this filter?

Thanks for any suggestions,

Joe Hayes
