Re: Panasonic 14-42mm ii with a hood and a polarizer?

Depending on your level of handiness - and your willingness to experiment, I would consider taking the hood and cutting a small slot in the bottom center of the hood to allow you to rotate the polarizer.  Might take a bit of engineering but not too much.  A spare hood and a dremel tool would do the trick.

I have had hoods that had this "hatch" in them in the past - I just can't think of who, although Pentax comes to mind with some of their larger hoods.
