Hello, all. I'm in the process of rebuilding my Mamiya RB67 kit after having to liquidate all of it a few years ago. Since I'm starting from scratch I'm trying to plan ahead. I do mostly landscape and nature photography and am intending to use the RB67 more like a lightweight field camera than a handheld camera, so having a drop-in filter system like Cokin or Lee is the direction I'd like to go. I use polarizers and ND filters pretty heavily. I'd also like to be able to use the Mamiya Bellows Hood G-3 on the camera and use that as the filter holder. I've done some research, and I've found that neither Lee's nor Cokin's filters will fit the 3"x3" slot in the bellows hood. I know Kodak Wratten filters are an option and are probably the direction I'll end up going. Which brings me to my problem:
How can I use a polarizer in one of the two filter slots on the bellows hood without having to rotate the bellows hood itself? Is this possible, or am I going to be unable to have my cake and eat it, too? Is there any way to combine a polarizer and the Mamiya bellows hoods?
