Shouldn't be any difference in light transmission regardless of how a
polarizer is rotated. What can vary is the light meter reading when a
linear polarizer is used on a camera that requires a circular polarizer
(like the Can-not-an-OM-on FTbn).
I *have* one polarizer that is darker than my others, thus reducing light
transmission more than the others - but it does so uniformly regardless of
rotation.

I was under the impression that it was always a light loss of 1.3 stops to
adjust for the filter. Am I unaware of some changing variable?
