It's fine. It's an interference filter and not directional.

BTW, there are a number of shops in Germany that can send you 
filters. As I posted a number of times in the first year of the M8, 
Heliopan makes a huge variety of filters at generally better prices 
than B+W and Leica, and also can get you odd sizes quite quickly. I, 
and some other LUGgers have had amazingly good service from Sally 
Neureuther at:

sneureuther at fotomayr.de

Her English is impeccable.
