"Lensing"

I have a .6 century wide angle i want to use to film a port. At the same time to prevent reflection i want to use the polarizer. How can i attach both lenses?
only one fits on at a time, it doesnt make sense!
The wide-angle has the DVX100 adapter!
 
Your polarizer does not have threads on the outside? It is safe to stack them if they work, although it's best to have the polarizer on the outside of the wide angle, it will still work.
 
Ok, some more questions!

Placing a polarizer and then stack the UV filter on top, will it affect in anyway the "polarization" Is it a good idea or not.

My wideangle adapter for DVX will only allow me to attach the wideangle to the lens and if i need other filters (polarizer) i must go in front of the WA but of course, they cannot be the standard 72's i use and have to be much larger. I cannot afford buying a new polarizer to stack in front of the wide-angle. I would like to use my 72' and place it beneath... any suggestions?
thanks!

Why is it best? Why do you say it will still work but then say its best...
Im not trying to be nosey! just plain curiosity :)


What is the difference if i place polarizer beneath WA (easier for me in this case)
 
WA lenses are designed to be installed directly to the stock lens. Even though you can sometimes put filetrs between them, you are pushing the WA lens away and the image will be different, perhaps not what is intended.

Also, the WA lens is altering the image and light and may change what the polarizer is trying to do. Better to have the polarizer on the outside where the light hits it directly.
