Title: What is the correct circular polarizing filter? Post by: 2_Rastas on August 28, 2008, 06:18:24 PM Hello, I'm using a Canon 28 - 135 IS USM lens and I'm looking for a circular polorizing filter. I'm told that not all circular polarizing filters are created equal. Can anybody help a guy out?
Thanks in advance for any help 2_Rastas Title: Re: What is the correct circular polarizing filter? Post by: Bob Atkins on August 28, 2008, 08:38:01 PM You need a good quality 72mm circular polarizer. I'r recommend a Hoya or Tiffen as being good value and good quality.
If you can afford it, I'd get the Hoya 72mm HMC circular polarizer (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00009R9D5/bobatkinsphotogr). The HMC (Hoya Multi-Coated) filters are very good and the coating can suppress flare under adverse lighting conditions. If that's too expensive, uncoated Tiffen 72mmm circular polarizer (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004ZCGX/bobatkinsphotogr) is pretty good (I have one myself) |
