You should check carefully before getting a linear polarizer for any of the R
cameras. The two SL models require a circular polarizer because the reflex
mirror is semi-silvered to direct some of the light to the meter cell. A
linear polarizer would result in incorrect meter readings if used with those
cameras. (I know, a shame -- circulars are lots more expensive!) I think the
R series cameras (some of them, anyway) work the same way. Maybe other list
members have already weighed in with more specific information.
