I missed the episode but wonder if there was a polarizer on the lens?  I
find it hard to "polarize" with a hood on.
Hm, there was some talk about polarizers. He might have been using
a polarizer on the lens when he had the hood reversed (I think it was a
70-200/2.8L he used, but I'm not sure). Other times I've seen them using
the 17-35/2.8L, also without hood and most likely without a polarizer.

Yes, I agree that using the polarizer with a hood can be difficult, if not
almost impossible, especially if the hood is very deep, as it is with the
70-200/2.8L I manage fine with the 28-105, though.
