Product Description
Product Description
Polarizing filters are amongst the most important filters in photography, both analogue & digital.They can be rotated in the mount,allowing the visible regulation of bluish grey veils of light which appear in the sky
The second beneficial effect of polarizing filters is the reduction of reflections on non -metallic surfaces i.e water,glass etc. Objects behind these surfaces are made clearly visible
Using a B+W polarizing filter is a fascinating and effective way to enhance images at source,without the hassle of post production editing

The performance is not in doubt here as it's a top quality item. The reason I have given 4 stars (I was angry enough to give 1), instead of 5 is this:
My understanding (unless I'm mistaken with this particular model) is that B+W filters (at least the pro or premium ones) have brass threads allowing them to unscrew easily from the internal threaded aluminium parts (due to the differential expansion rates). I was on a holiday, in a hot country (30s deg C) and mounted this onto my permanently attached B+W filter (same pro grade). After not very long at all I tried to remove it. It was stuck fast, as if it was welded on!! It was hell to remove and almost had me wanting to take a hammer to the thing! This happened twice within the fortnight. I'm very disappointed about this as I cannot be assured that it won't happen and in the first instance it almost caused me to miss a great photo opportunity.
I'd highly recommend it on performance (5 stars) but, if it does indeed have brass threads then I'm not impressed. If it is aluminium then it's a huge mistake on my part as I bought it partly for the brass thread - to avoid sticking.

Absolutely brilliant piece of glass. Really worth the money as it survived my trip to thailand without a scratch and is so easy to clean with barely any smear marks. I can't see any immediate colouration, so to me it's worth the money.

I did some test shots and it's as if the filter isn't even there in terms of affecting the image.
Easy to fit, easy to adjust in action, the only main drawback is that you can't put your lens cap on when you have this fitted, nor can you use the light lens hood.
That's a major drawback, but when you can use it it works fine although not sure if I can honestly say it is worth the massive price I paid for it.
