Is there not a circlip holding it in place? If there were you could
tighten it to eliminate the rattle.

I've got a B+W circular polariser I acquired in a box of bits -- it's in
fine condition as far as the glass goes, but the glass itself rattles in the
filter. Checking, it will rotate relative to the filter ring, which is a bit
annoying for a polariser.. it doesn't seem to do it under normal
circumstances, but I'm still a bit wary.
What's the best way to fix this? I'm tempted to just put a tiny blob of
epoxy somewhere along the edge; that'd be thick enough that it shouldn't
drip over the rest of the filter and mess things up -- would white
glue/cyanoacrylate be a better bet? There's also the option of wedging a
little shim of something in there to keep it tight; that's less permanent,
but I'm not sure what I could use that'd be small enough.
Any other suggestions I'm missing?
thanks,
