Polarizer Choices For GF1

Going to order a B+W Polarizer for my GF1 with the 14-45 & 45-90mm lenses. I want to make sure that I'll still be able to attach the lens hood.

Should I get the 52mm Circular MRC?

or the 52mm Circular THIN MRC ?

or the 52mm Linear MRC ?

or.... ?

Thanks!

The linear MRC. You don't need the circular for this camera and a linear has one less interface to degrade the image (no quarter wave plate in a linear). And you definitely want MRC, multicoating is a major improvement to contrast/flare performance.

I just got one for my 14-45 and 45-200 (I presume you meant 45-200 although you typed 45-90). I've verified it doesn't vignette at all at wide angle (in fact it isn't even close to doing so).

Rebel XT, XTi, Pany G1, LX3, FZ28, Fuji F30, and a lot of 35mm and 4x5 sitting in the closet...

Thanks for the quick reply, and 45 - 200 is correct!
