Features:
Light rays which are reflected by any surface become polarized and polarizing filters are
used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. PL (Linear Polarizing)
and PL-CIR (Circular Polarizing) filters have the same effect, but it is
important that you choose the correct version for your camera.
The filters 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. These polarizing filters
do not affect the overall color balance of a shot.
These popular filters are renowned for their ability to minimize reflection at the
filter surfaces which reduces flare and ghosting. The result is an average light
transmission of over 97%, giving sharp contrast and well balanced color. HOYA
HMC filters are recommended for enhancing the performance of today's multicoated
lenses.
