Polarizer mounting for Leica 19mm f2.8

It does not seem Leitz wanted anybody to have filters on this lens other than the ones they built into it.

Has anyone succeeded in fitting a circular polarizer to one?  I have version II, if that helps.

I own one too and unless you used a few step-up adapter rings and then maybe gaffer-taped it to the lens, I can't think of anything that would work, and it would be pretty awkward.  I don't know about you, but I've found that polarizers on wide angles don't produce even results across the frame on deep blue skies.

I think you are right- I just got it and have a routine to try to have a polarizer handy.  Come to think of it, some of  my winners were shot with no filter.  This lens has a built in uv, that may do enough.
