Duh.....once you hit " send" to post on the list, the " return" key will
not bring the silly question back. :-) After using the Realist for so
long, I had to think about the linear vs circular and exposure
compensations etc. I should have remembered this as I own both circular
and linear polarizers, and purchased each for a specific reason.
Compensation applies only when using a hand-held meter ( unless metering
through the polarizer) and linear vs circular is a concern for
auto-focus. Thanks Paul Talbot for simply stating something that I once
knew so well. I'll return to what it was I was doing before I posted the
question that I already knew the answer to......and that was trying to
remember some of the other things I forgot. :-)
