I sent the following question to Olympus customer support, and the
last line is their reply:
>>Using an Olympus OM-3Ti and 28mm f2.0 lens and the standard

>>(the slim filters do not have front threads) circular polarizer?
>As long as you use slim filters, you shouldn't have a problem.
As you can see, the techo-emailer did not really answer my
question. So, I will attack the question from a different angle.
I could use a linear polarizer with a wide angle lens and a hood
to avoid any vignetting. However, then I wouldn't be able to use
spot metering. Before I start spending money, I'd like to hear
comments on that option. I generally use my 28mm lens to
photograph buildings and other outdoor city scenes. How
limiting would the elimination of spot metering be for city photos?
