Which filter for 200-400VR drop-in holder?

[Jbear]

Hey There,

Always wanted to try this lens for myself, so...I am. Got a good deal but the drop-in holder won't have a filter. Can anyone direct me toward which filter I will be looking for to replace the missing one. I have shot my drop-in lenses with and without filters to see if there's a difference, and I have never seen one, but...I would like to do the same with this lens.

Also...will the drop-in polarizer from a 300 2.8 VR fit this lens?

Short version...have a holder...need a filter.

Thanks all!

I think a standard 52mm NC filter can screw on the empty drop-in filter holder. Also, according to Nikon's info the 52mm Slip-in Circular Polarizing Filter (C-PL1L) is an approved accessory for the 200-400 f/4G and the 300mm f/2.8G.

52mm Slip-in Circular Polarizing Filter C-PL1L

Dramatically reduces reflections from water and glass as well as rendering blue skies darker.
