Use the Series 8 filter, E60 won't work. And the wheel in the hood will let
you rotate the filter while looking throught the viewfinder. And make sure
it's a circular polarizer, all Leicas since the first R4, and maybe some
before that I'm pretty sure, need the circular type - and sorry to say,
more expensive.
