Al,
Good for you. I dont really care about the cost as I have sorted the problem without wasting any more money - which may have happened if I bought another "non" brand filter. Normally I am very sceptical of such things but in this case it worked. Maybe a Hoya or a Sigma et al would have worked, maybe not. I was not prepared to take that chance. Leica assured me that the uV77 would work to my satisfaction and it did. I personally will be getting the Leica 62 UV filter if they make it.
I suggest everyone reads the other thread, esp. about the guy with the Zeiss 65 - he seemed pretty convinced as am I.
I get the feeling that there are a few doubters out there - fair enough I suppose. I am not interested in the Laws of Physics - I would rather trust my eyes. I would post some pix of the comparisons between the Leica and the Jessops but it would be a waste of time since someone will just say I deliberately didn't focus as well with the Jessops one ;-}
