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.

Customer Reviews

Sticks easily3
It jammed on my Nikon 70-200 f/2.8. I didn't have a filter wrench and it took a lot of work to "coax" it off. Optically it is great.

vignetting at wider than 13mm4
The quality of the filter is good. However, vignetting is a problem when your lens is wider than 13mm.

A great product as advertised.5
This polariser works beautifully on my Canon 24-105 zoom lens.
It is better used outside in brighter conditions since the lens opening needs to be stepped up while it's on.
I have many family members who wear glasses that reflect light & finally I can make portraits of them where their eyes can be seen.
