Product details
Polarizing Filter Functionality
Light rays reflected from surfaces become polarized. Polarizing filters selectively allow certain light rays to enter the camera lens, effectively removing unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass. They also enhance color saturation and improve contrast. The effect is visible through the viewfinder and can be adjusted by rotating the filter. The filter factor varies depending on the rotation and its orientation relative to the sun.
Applications
If photographing outdoors—whether in mountains or at the beach—a polarizer is ideal for capturing vivid cloud-filled skies or intensifying water saturation. It can increase or decrease reflections on water or glass surfaces, enhancing image quality. For black and white photography, pairing with a red filter can simulate dramatic stormy skies.
Essential Gear
Alongside UV or Skylight filters, a polarizing filter is essential for any photographer's kit. It transforms ordinary images into striking photos by boosting color saturation.
Technical Specifications and Features
- Constructed with hardened glass offering 4× the tensile strength of traditional filters of similar design.
- Incorporates special coatings to reduce internal reflections, resulting in clearer, brighter, and sharper images—especially beneficial for sensitive digital camera sensors.
- Provides 25% higher light transmission compared to standard polarizing films used in photographic filters.
- Eliminates ultraviolet rays to reduce haze in outdoor photography while polarizing light to remove reflections and enhance color saturation without altering overall color balance.
- Effectively enhances blue skies and makes clouds more prominent when used at a right angle to the sun.
- Features an 8-layer multi-coating to minimize reflections on filter surfaces, reducing flare and ghosting.
- Water and oil repellent, scratch and stain resistant for durability.
- Exceeds ANSI standardized testing for breaking strength, rated against steel balls dropped from 127 cm onto the glass.
- Compatible with cameras using beam splitters in the TTL light meter path and autofocus systems.
Physical Characteristics
- Slim matte black aluminium frame
- Designed for lenses with 72 mm filter thread diameter
