I assumed that the notion of reusing the OM polarizers was implying 49
and 55mm filters. Since the only thing they're likely to fit is manual
focus Zuikos I assumed we could discard any notion of linear polarizers
as being a problem with autofocus. Metering might be a different story
but I has assumed autofocus was out of the equation.
