Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1] More info | Jul 27, 2010 10:59 | #3 NEVER need 'slim' with any lens of that quite modest AOV (74 degrees) on an APS-C body. Even with wider 84 degree AOV (15mm on APS-C, 24mm on FF) they never need it. 17mm on FF (with 104 degree AOV) may need it, depending upon whose 17mm lens and the setback of the front element, but typically only for the polarizer which is inherently thicker. For example, the B+W F-Pro MRC polarizer will not vignette on the Canon 17-40L at 17mm on a full frame, so a 'slim' is not needed. You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost!

If, however, you were looking at B+W's Circular Polarizers, the only kind you should consider for a DSLR, the Kaesemann's are all MRC (Linear Kaesemann's are not available in MRC). Jon

You're sure all KSM's are MRC? According to B+W's product guide, yes. If you get a Kaesemann CP, it's MRC. If you get a Kaesemann LP, it's not MRC. Jon
