I just mounted my new CPLv2 onto my Panorama-G. It is much, MUCH better than the original. The magnets are stronger and it is a better fit to the lens.
With the CPLv1 I used to knock it off whenever I put-in, took-out my heat reflector. With the new one, it doesn't budge at all even when it gets "thumped" pretty good.
I also like that it is "darker" than the original by hiding the white text around the lens on the camera.

I blacked out the printing on the camera itself but the change in the lens is all due to the new CPLv2.
I tested the performance between the two by putting a piece of paper on my dash and they performed exactly the same so I won't bother posting videos of that.
