Amazon Basics Circular Polarizer Filter - 82 mm

Product Information

Due to the popularity of DSLR cameras, the demand for linear polarizers plummeted over time, causing filter manufacturers to concentrate on primarily making circular polarizers – from cheap, poorly-coated filters, to high-quality multi-coated circular polarizers with superb light transmission qualities. Although linear polarizers are still available today and work just fine on modern mirrorless cameras, they are not recommended for use due to the unavailability of high-quality options. Filter Shapes With filter thread diameters available in all common sizes from 37mm through to 95mm (and even an elusive 105mm option, if you can find it), there’s a DHG Super polarizer for almost any lens, and most are very well priced, in the UK at least. They also have coatings that repel water, dirt, dust, and oil from your fingerprints. Some have anti-static coatings. The top-of-the-range filters have coatings that harden the glass. These make the filters nearly unbreakable.

One of the most frustrating aspects of owning several lenses is that, unless you've stumbled into a fantastic fluke, they'll likely be different filter thread diameters. However, that doesn't mean that you have to invest in a polarizer several times over to fit your different pieces of glass! Buy one to fit your lens with the largest filter thread diameter, and then use step-up rings to mount it to the others. Sorted! These HD (heavy-duty) filters use specially hardened glass that is far more resistant to breakage than other optical glass.Circular polarizer filters are preferred over linear polarizers for digital photography, not least because they avoid the risk of causing false color and moiré patterning when used in conjunction with a camera’s low-pass filter. This Hoya is typical of the breed in combining two filters in one frame, the forward one being able to rotate and give between zero to full circular polarization with each successive 90-degree rotation. Double Coated】Adopted 18-Layer multi-resistant double coating technology, the green coating helps effectively reduce filter surface reflection and the ghosting while making the filter anti-scratch, water repellent, oil and dust resistant.
