2 9 50

Not posted much lately, been enjoying the 2 too much.

However, today through up an opportunity for a mix of driving the 2, and taking pics with the M9 with a 50 elmar-m bolted to the front. Also presented with a great chance to compare shots with and with out a polariser..

Not the simplest thing to do, But still do-able.
Know you pola. By how many stops do you need to compensate? Mine is worth two stops.

I normally hold up the pola and rotate in mid air to see the effect. I then make a mental note of the writing on the back so I can hold it in that position for the shot.

I then compose and set the exposure. set it normal then open by two stops.
Whilst framing the shot I then simply place the pola in front of the lens. Sorted.
Obviously exposure is done manually.

Without pola
 With pola

And a mix of shots slightly varying the exposue. 1/2 stop at a time. Just rotating the shutter speed dial between shots.
