Is not suited for really tight filters: blanket is much better

In Norway it happened, although I am always careful and patch filter never fixed prefer. The temperature fluctuations in a mountain tour ensured that a polarizing filter - unfortunately a slim version with very slim, barely grippy edge - after how cold welded stuck on a Zeiss Ultra Wide. The classic all-metal body of the lens, the operating temperature changes accordingly, may have exacerbated the problem.

Back home I ordered after unsuccessful attempts with heating by hairdryer etc. these filter terminals. What came next was the most labile flimschiges cheap plastic variety, and of course it did not turn off the pole filter. Tongs lost only once their teeth if I could ever successfully start without lateral bending.

My wife brought me then of her work (chemical plant) with the solution: a clean blanket (Swagelock Grip Pack). Thus, the polarization filter let turn. Since cloth is always in my camera bag. And the terminals? Have long been in the trash.
