Light rays which are reflected by any surface become polarized and Polarizing filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. They allow you to remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass etc. They also enable colors to become more saturated and appear clearer, with better contrast. This effect is often used to increase the contrast and saturation in blue skies and white clouds. Polarizers do not affect the overall color balance of a shot. It is important that you choose the correct version of polarizer for your camera. Many of today's cameras use semi-silvered mirrors or prisms to split the light entering the viewfinder in order to calculate exposure and focusing distance. Polarizing filters can sometimes interact with these items to give unpredictable exposure or focusing. So we recommend that you choose a circular polarizer unless you have a manual focus camera which has no beam splitter. If you will be using your Polarizing filter on a lens which has a focal length of 28mm or wider (on a 35mm camera), we recommend that you use a Wide Circular Polarizer to avoid a possible vignette effect.

Tiffen 58 mm circular polarizer

"I use this for landscape shots in the mountains and especially if there is a lake or stream in the shot. It definitely results in a more dramatic blue sky in many situations. In other words it works as advertised and at a very reasonable price...." Read Full Review »

"I needed this filter to shoot original art prints that had been already mounted and framed under glass. The filter was great at removing high glare from my tripod and other components set up in front of the art.
