George Duncan Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Much to my dismay, when we were out on location shooting a lake scene, I put the Polarizing Filter on our EX1 and the lens hood would NOT fit back on. Even removing the UV Filter to give it more room was to no avail. The Polarizing Filter, even alone, was just slightly too thick to allow the lens shade back on. VERY poor design on Sony's part. Later, I bought a rubber, collapsible lens shade, and even that collapsed "all the way" still caused vignetting when the lens was at its widest. Be that as it may, have any of you conquered that problem, and if so, how? We MUST be able to use a Polarizing Filter on our EX1. Thanks. .

Mark McCann Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Your best bet would be to see about a matte box for it and just slide in the filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
