Product Description

Light rays which are reflected by any surface become polarised and polarising filters are used to select which light rays enter your camara lens. They allow you to remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass etc. They also saturate colors and increase contrast. Polarizers come in two variations but have the same effect. Linear polarizers work with older camera meters; Circurlar polarizers are designed for today's newer split-beam metering systems used in auto focus cameras. Check your camera's manual Extra thin filters are narrow construction with ultra thin glass. They are designed to avoid vignetting with today's larger wide angle lenses.

Product Details

  • Creates dramatic sky/cloud contrast.
  • Saturates colors without changing color balance.
  • Mount rotates to control amount of effect.
  • Super Multi Coated for maximum flare protection.

Much of the content of the picture frames I photograph is encased in reflective glass. This filter does a great job of removing a lot of the interfering reflections.

Reviewer: Ray Harclerode,
The Hoya circular polarizer functions extremely well and, as far as I have been able to discern, does not decrease the sharpness nor add optical aberrations to the final prints I have made.
Great polarizer

This Circular Polarizer is very nice and heavy and very clean out of the package. The only thing that I'm worried about is that there is a tiny ring inside just around the glass itself that is cracked and kind of warped, but still inside it's track. I have researched photos to see if this is broken but a few pictures of the item for sale new seem to show the same crack in the ring - fingers crossed.

Also, I bought it along with the Amazon recommended HMC UV(0) filter and I have to agree that when you put them both together they are very hard to get apart. It's great quality though very heavy, clean and nicely milled around its edge.
