RB67 with compendium hood and circular polarizer

[chassis]

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.

There's a manual for the bellows hood online here http://www.butkus.org/chinon/mamiya/mamiya_lenses_accessories/mamiya_lenses_accessories.htm

Thanks tedr. Is there anyone who has used the hood with a polarizer? I didn't see anything about this in the manual.
