Rest assured, the men are already the slaves. Women are much too smart for us, but only a small number of men realize this.

Re: circular polarizer question
Hi Scott, The camera does it for you. The ZX-5n's light meter doesn't know you've put a filter on, it just measures the light making it to the meter and adjusts Av and Tv accordingly. You may not have hurt much, depending on the film (print film is more forgiving than slide film).

Re: circular polarizer question
Metering is through the lens, hence through the filter. No manual compensation should be necessary.

Re: circular polarizer question
Hello, the answer is NO. The camera will compensate by itself because there is less light going inside the camera...

Re: circular polarizer question
Since the camera meter will compensate the difference automatically, you do not need to compensate manually. So the answer is "no". However, if you use a handheld meter, the answer will be "yes". regards, Alan Chan >Hi, >I have a ZX-5N and was using a circular polarizer on a wide angle lens >(28A) >this weekend at a antique car show in Springfield, Missouri.

Maybe I am wrong. :^) you seem to want an "automatic polarizer";^) You still must orient the polarizer to relative to what degree of polarization effect desired w/ either type. The circular ones are needed by certain AF cameras which use some sort of mirroring in them. Someone else will have more detailed info, sooner or later. Having to re-adjust when changing focus distance can be a nuisance, though. Bill - Bill D.
