Nick,

If my memory serves me correctly, ALL SL & R series cameras need a circular 
polarizer to meter properly. With that sais, I'll go out on a limb and say that 
I think that the early 50 & 35's that use a series 6, actually have a 48mm 
filter thread in the lens, so that all you need to do is het a 48mm-to-55mm 
step-up ring and you can use the latest leitz filters. You can also use the 
excellent HAMA of Germany, rectangular lens hoods which work all the way down 
to 
24mm focal length without any vignetting!!

Hope that helps
