Hello all,

On an RB67, is it advisable to use a lens-threaded circular polarizer with the Mamiya bellows hood G?

It is physically possible. The questions is - is it effective and does it create any problems?

The bellows hood itself has a threaded adapter, which would be fastened to the front thread of the polarizer. Is this setup too wobbly? Does it have any optical shortcomings? Thanks for any input.
