I know (or think I know) that a mirrorless camera can use either type of polarizer. Is that correct?

Is it the linear or circular that is rotated to polarize? I don't recall.

Which would do a better job for image quality on a mirrorless camera?

Could I rotate a polarizer on a lens that has a bayonet mount lens hood?

Makes no difference.  Just make sure it's of good quality.

Good luck. Report back your findings.
