Polarisers are perfect for any type of lens and camera combination including DSLR, mirrorless and medium format cameras. Our inventory covers leading companies such as B+W, Hoya and Sigma as well as camera manufacturer own options from Canon, Leica, Nikon and Panasonic Lumix. More importantly, the new HD polarizing filters use magic polarizing material that loses less light. Most polarizers lose two stops of light. I measured this one, and it loses only 1 and 1/6 stop (one and one-sixth of a stop) of light. This means sharper photos at lower ISOs than using regular polarizers, about one full stop better. When photographing distant subjects such as mountains, a polarizing filter can also help in reducing atmospheric haze, as explained further down below. So if you are wondering how some photographers manage to get rich colors in their photographs, particularly when it comes to the sky, foliage, and distant subjects, you will find that they often heavily rely on polarizing filters. Although color can certainly be added to photographs in post-processing, the effect of a polarizing filter cannot be fully replicated in software, especially when it comes to reducing reflections and haze in a scene, making the filter indispensable for landscape photography. Maximum Degree of Polarization Polarizer filters let you see under the reflections and glare on water, snow, or glass. They also deepen the color and boost contrast in a way that is impossible to replicate in post-processing. B+W’s premium XS-Pro circular polarizers come in a huge range of thread diameters to suit lenses from tiny Micro Four Thirds optics through to beefy large aperture super-teles. A cheaper ‘F-Pro’ range is also available, but at the time of writing, the price difference isn’t vast.

The high-end Hoya HD nano Mk II CIR-PL is a circular polarizer with a difference

This eliminates vignetting on wide-angle lenses. The glass is Schott superwhite optical glass with 16 nanocoated layers. And the glass has a high light transmission. I personally use and highly recommend the B+W 77mm High-Transmission MRC-Nano filter, because of its top-notch optics, small footprint, and very minimal light loss of 1-1.5 stops. Although I linked to the 77mm size, make sure to get one that matches your lens.

Ultra-high light transmittance】 The lens uses K&F Concept's exclusive coating technology, and the reflectivity as low as 0.15% can eliminate 99.2% of polarized light and ensure 45% light transmittance. Reduces flare and ghosting that can occur when filters are attached to the lens, with little or no impact on the original performance of the lens A polarizing filter improves the vibrancy of water and lets you see below the surface. Your sky becomes more vibrant and reduces atmospheric haze. Some vibrancy tools in photo editing programs may be able to simulate contrast and color. But you can’t edit out reflections and glare.Overall, a polarizing filter is a must-have tool in every photographer’s bag. One of the challenges of being a photographer is making the best of the light you have available to you. Polarizers give you the ability to control the light that comes through your lens, creating vibrant images that might otherwise look dull. Lastly, some manufacturers might even sell drop-in polarizing filters that are specifically made to fit a particular type of filter holder. The one pictured above allows photographers to easily rotate the polarizing filter using the dial on its top.
