Tiffen Circular Polarizer Sunglasses for your camera

Tiffen Circular Polarizer

Polarizers provide color and contrast enhancement. Reflected light often shows up as whitish glare that washes out color in an image. A Polarizer corrects this problem producing deep, dramatically blue skies. It also removes glare from non-metallic surfaces, such as windows and water. Color saturation in general, especially outdoors, can be improved significantly. Think of it as sunglasses for your camera.

A Circular Polarizer has the same effect as a Polarizer and is used on cameras with beam splitting metering systems commonly found on auto focus SLR's (for most 35mm auto-focus cameras see your camera manual).

Area of sky most effectively polarized with a Circular Polarizer: Point your index finger at the sun. With your thumb extended at a right angle (90°), rotate it around the axis of the index finger. It will point out the band of deepest blue from horizon to horizon.

24 customers mention24 positive0 negative

Customers like the filter. They say it's a great polarizing filter, helps out tremendously, and does a good job of filtering out excessive light. It also doubles as a neutral density filter, and is great for protecting lenses. Some say that it'd be better with a multicoated filter, but it'll still protect your lens in extreme environments.

"...The filter itself does a great job of filtering out excessive/obtrusive light without itself getting in the way...." Read more

"...It will also help protect your lens in extreme environments. So instead of sticking a useless UV filter on the front of your lens start using a pola." Read more

4 Stars
Barely noticeable.
Normally a CP makes the contrast between the sky and clouds change as you turn it. With this one, I can barely tell a difference.It works, but not the best.
