The Vulcan Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I was sorting out my camera bag a few days ago and came across a pola filter which I'd forgotten I had. Haven't used it for yonks so thought I'd give it a run I'd forgotten how good they are for controlling reflection, glare and enhancing colours and skies. The container (being white in the sun) was really glistening and potentially was going to be blown out but the pola saved it. The little girls dress, again white and full sun, is well contained also. I guess I might be using this a lot more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aeon Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I never go around without a polarizer, if you shoot in the city or nature (waters or landscapes) it is your best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiud Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I have a polarizer always on, circular one but, for what I remember with my old Nikon film camera, the effects where much more enhanced than with my digital slr: darker skies and more deep colours. Why? I need a 4/5,000 baht filter? My Hoya is not enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why?I need a 4/5,000 baht filter? My Hoya is not enough? I saw circular polarizers especially created for digital cameras (not sure if there is difference on performance) because they say that sensor are differently sensible to those kind of incident lights, but they are more expensive. Personally I use a traditional one (for film) with great performances on digital. Edited October 31, 2009 by aeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetaroi Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I have to admit...I love CPs and am guilty of leaving them on too much of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
