Pentax does make a 43 mm circular polarizer filter that fits into the drop in holder of the FA* 600/4.0. I got the part number from a Pentax rep last October, the part number is 35184. I think that he said the list price is about $550 Canadian. I use a B+W slim series 49 mm circular polarizer in my A* 300/2.8, it's price was $100 Cdn, I haven't decided if I would use the 43 mm circular polarizer enough to justify it's price. -- David S.
