Hi. I'd like to use a circular polarizer with the lenses on my M8. I know of the "Steps" product and the Leica universal polarizer but other than the occasional comment on various forums (this one included), can't really figure out what solution most people employ.
Would anyone here vouch for the Steps product, and are there any alternatives? Lutz of Leicagoodies fame mentioned somewhere that he'll have a difficult time filling orders after the end of this year, so Steps is the answer, I'll place my order right away. I already have a great B+W 77mm circular polarizer, which makes Steps attractive to me.
Thanks.

I don't use a polarizer with my rangefinders. Like you, I'm considering solutions.
I've heard of the "Steps" and then there's this Kenko system that I saw at Robert White that looks interesting to me but do not see discussed either.

The Kenko item would seem to give a pretty good view of the polarizing effect but would add another step to the process as it necessitates transferring the number value from the viewfinder to the filter.
