An Adorama 55mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter is an indispensable tool for both professional and amateur photographers. This high-quality filter enhances color and contrast in your images by effectively reducing the whitish glare often caused by reflected light. With this filter, your photos will exhibit deep, dramatically blue skies and improved color saturation, particularly in outdoor settings.The Circular Polarizer Glass Filter is not just a color enhancer; it also minimizes reflections in both black and white and color photography. This makes it an ideal choice for shooting through windows or capturing images of water surfaces without the distracting glare. For those seeking to create incredibly dramatic black and white landscapes, this filter can be combined with a Red 25 filter (sold separately). The filter can be easily rotated to achieve the desired effect, giving you complete control over the level of polarization in your images. Designed for use with the Tiffen Polarizer, this filter can also be used with the enhancing filter for more dramatic effects. It's also compatible with wide-angle lenses, making it a versatile addition to your photography kit. This Circular Polarizer has the same effect as a Polarizer and is designed for use on cameras with beam-splitting metering systems, commonly found on auto-focus SLRs. For optimal results, follow the simple rule of thumb: point your index finger at the sun, extend your thumb at a right

Getting this filter on and off is a B(must be slightly over tighted or it will just slip off) , but once on it works well. I'd get it for a lense you will keep it on for long lengths of time. For the price nothing touches it

The polarizer works fine like all the other circular polarizers I own. Set the orientation for the sun angle and it works. You can visually see the difference through the lens easily. No issues.

Initial Review April 12, 2022I don't normally take landscape photos but we are going to visit the Grand Canyon soon. As I researched into photographing the canyon the idea of using a circular polarizer kept coming up. As I didn't have one I researched and found this Tiffen was highly rated by those who purchased a copy.The filter fits perfectly and my lens cap fits on the polarizer too. I'm sure the quality is good but I have to take more photos with it to give it a proper evaluation.

The product is exactly what I wanted/needed. I have only had it a short time and so cannot make a in-depth review. However for the few times I have used the polarizer, it meets my expectations.

Debo aclarar algo; para su costo si conviene.Debo mencionar que es mi 3er filtro que tengo, dos de ellos son mayores a 1500 su costo c/u. Por lo que he aprendido hasta el momento los filtros deben ser de demasiada calidad para que no de una viñeta que afecte la imagen o haga que pierda nitidez de la imagen.Sin embargo este filtro (por su bajo costo) de viñeta rápidamente en sus pasos más oscuros y en sus pasos más claros hace perder un poco la nitidez de la imagen.Si es tu primer filtro lo recomiendo para que entiendas mejor su funcionamiento. Si es tu 2o en definitiva no lo compres.

The construction and quality of material used is very good and the two rotating rings used to establish the polarizing effect (and the angle that it applies from the ambient light reaching the lens) is as expected. I would rate this filter as "intermediate" as to the degree it filters out non-polarized light (which creates glare from reflections or creates less than deep blue skies). This effect comes with a combined plus/minus:Plus: This intermediate polarization reduces the f-stop penalty, as all filters creates one, polarizing lens being without exception. Therefore you are more able to get the proper exposure for the aperture setting (depth of field) to your liking as to photo composition.Minus: If looking to obtain really deep blue skies in photos in landscape or "seeing through" water or glass for your photo in well lit situations (say, midday on a sunny day), then this polarizing filter may not be for what what you want.It is better suited for moderate or less strong ambient light situations when using a lens that already as a fairly strong f-stop penalty (as many variable focal length lenses have) to prevent the need to use a tripod (long shutter speed) when using the camera in aperture priority mode.

There aren't enough threads on the outside for a lens cap, and the polarization effect could be better. Overall a decent polarizer for the price. If it were not inconvenient i might return this one and try another but bleh.

Secret weapon for spectacular land/water scape shots. You take a shot. The sky is brilliant deep blue, the clouds brilliant white, and the water is so clear you can see the rocks on the bottom. HOW? Simple, use a polarizer. With today's TTL metering (through the lens) and circular grooving of the surface of the polarizer, there's no twisting to get it to the right angle, and there's no sweating if it will throw the exposure off. Just POINT and SHOOT and love the results. First thing I do with a new camera is put a UV or SKYLIGHT filter on the lens, insurance. Second thing is add a polarizer to inventory. In snow shots, water shots, scenery with blue skies and clouds the filter is magic. And it does all the work. Should be in every photographer's gadget bag. It's in every serious photographer's bag, that I am sure of. It will remove reflections when you shoot through windows. It will add richness and depth to the colors of photographed cars. Just by being there, on the lens.

Gute Qualität für diesen Preis. Verwende ihn an einer GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition mit entsprechenden Adaptern. Ich kann den Artikel empfehlen, wenn keine absolute Super-Spitzen-Profi-Qualität erwartet wird.
