I'd go Hoya over Tiffen if I had the choice. >But I love B+W and Heliopan filters the best! Well, be careful. Hoya apparently has a much higher complaint rate than does Tiffen. Nor does Hoya "make glass for Leica": Hoya contracted with Schott to make certain Schott formulations, which Leica buys. If you want, YOU can buy the same lens blanks, and post, "Hoya makes glass for Rabiner". I picked up an H&H Series adapter for $10 or so, and use H&H Series filters, on the rare occasions when I use filters at all. These are inexpensive and quite nice: they are the standard filters used by Hollywood, Tiffen's hype to the contrary. An H&H adapter and lens hood is going to cost around $25, and the adapters, unlike those horrid Kenko things, are actually quite well made.
