Just had an expensive week for "odds and ends". A new hood for my 17mm Lens at 
?36 and a Kood 82mm circular polarizer at ?39 from Denton Photo Optics. The 
polarizer,which looks to be of very good quality,has quite a thick mount. If 
the mount was any thinner it would be bl**dy nigh impossible to grip it to turn 
- due to the shape of the lens hood and the way the filter fits  :-((
        Denton Photo Optics seem to be by far the cheapest for filters in the 
UK.   Regards, John Duggan Wales, UK.
