This is my first polarizer filter. I've been getting good results with this filter. I find it's best to use these when shooting outside with plenty of light. You really get a nice vivid pop, and you can make the sky blue instead of a washed out white, when you're exposing for people/objects/anything in the foreground. If you adjust it all the way, you can make the sky really deep and things seem almost surreal, but turn it half way and you get that nice enhancement for your general shots. I wish I could comment on this brand versus others, but this is the only one I've ever used. I was pleasantly surprised with the construction. I was expecting something more flimsy and plastic-y, but it's got a good sturdiness and build quality to it. I had no problems screwing ... MoreThis is my first polarizer filter.

I purchased this filter for a family vacation to Hawaii later on this year. I wanted my parents to have something for their camera to help add contrast and bring out the sky while shooting oceanic landscapes during the day. I got to play with the filter and must say it's a good filter for the price. Keep in mind that I'm used to B+W filters, which IMO are some of the finest made for the money. That being said, I can't give this 5 starts because it's not in the same league of the B+W. Plus, I don't like how the filter element freely rotates. If you're looking for a rather inexpensive filter for enhancing contrast in landscapes, and or shooting through reflective surfaces, I'd say go for it.

The alpha CPF is great for eliminating and reducing glare, but for real brightly lighted scenes. Best suited for glare on water, but for bright skies... not so much. Not really suited for using along with any linear filter systems. I found it to easily re-positioned when attaching my Lee linear filter adapter. When I screw it on over the CPF it has a tendency to rotate, which messes up my polarization setting. When used alone it works very well.

I purchased this filter to use on my 70-300mm lens when shooting telephoto landscapes/skyscapes. This filter is about what I expected for the $30 price point. The glass tends to smudge easily but the optical quality seems to be very good. At the longer focal lengths I am using, the polarization effect available usually isn't drastic, but when used in the right situation it effectively cuts through haze and preserves/improves definition, saturation, and dynamic range very satisfactorily. It is a bit difficult to get started threading onto my lens but attaches securely and is easy to remove. The rotating ring has the perfect amount of play in it- not too tight, not too loose. Overall I am happy with the performance of this filter and think it is well worth the money.
I used to use a Hoya UV filter to protect my lens and enhance the sky in my shots. I just had eye surgery and am sensitive to bright light. This polarizing filter works no matter how the lens is situated because it is a circular polarization. At the same time, the outside ring can still be turned to give a different effect in the shot. It cuts enough light through the lens that my eye doesn't hurt, protects the lens itself and enhances shots with a lot of glare in them as well as, of course, enabling shots through the surface of water to give those clear underwater shots. It still allows 96% of the light through the lens so the F-stop and lens opening are not really effected that much, even in night shots. I just leave it on the lens. In many ways I prefer it over ... MoreI used to use a Hoya UV filter to protect my lens and enhance the sky in my shots. I just had eye surgery and am sensitive to bright light.

I've always liked the HOYA brand and found their optics to be second to none. The same can be said about their coatings. What has always surprised me has been the quality of their so-called second tier(?), their next grade down from their top of the line. You have only to hold, to examine one to be impressed. And their prices don't bust the budget, at least not the ones that I've found on eBay. The other more expensive brands I've come across haven't impressed me in the least and certainly not the prices that a lot of them demand. All of my current lenses have HOYA's as well as my past film lenses that are currently in storage. Check them out.
I have a polarizer filter on ALL my lenses. I NEVER use special effects filters but I find a polarizer is a necessity. They cut glare off water; enhance the sky and separation with cloud formations; create much more detail when shooting mountains with snow etc ... This type of filter helps the camera see what your eye sees. Camera have a difficult time with glare from reflection off water and snow . This filter will only work when you are aiming your camera about 90 degrees from the sun so it won't work under all circumstances and don't forget to Rotate the filter to vary how much polarization you want . It is easy to forget that you have to rotate the filter for the best results. No matter what; always put some kind of filter on your lens to protect it from ... MoreI have a polarizer filter on ALL my lenses.

I just received it a few minutes ago. I can screw it on the Fujifilm XF55-200 easily , but impossible to install the lens hood. The filter knurled section has a diameter slightly higher than the opening of the Fuji lens hood.The rotation of the front filter element is very easy, but slightly noisy.. I don't know if I can find a replacement lens hood, that would work my the lens & filter.I use a Hoya HRT on my Fujifilm XF50-140 F2.8, without any problem.To be fair I can't rate it at this point.
I bought this polarizer for my 18-55mm kit lens after trying my first one out on a different lens. I'm satisfied with the quality of the glass and impressed with the ability my lens now has to see through glare on the surface of water. I leave this filter off most of the time but it's an indispensable tool when you do need it. If you're shooting into a mountain stream on a cloudy day, having this polarizer mounted is a real game- changer.
I have had this product for over a year, attached to my Sony Rx-100 IV. Looking back at the photos that I have taken I have noticed that it is causing some banding on the blue skies in certain angles.This happens very obviously when I am shooting from an airplane, but I suppose that could also be because of the double (and curved?) glass of the window. I havent tried that with other polarizers. That said, airplanes are not the only scenario, so just dropping my two cents here. Its OK for the price and can be used in most other scenarios, but I wouldnt rely on it for important photos.
Light rays which are reflected by any surface become polarized and polarizing filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. The PL-CIR (Circular Polarizing) 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. Hoya's polarizing filters do not affect the overall color balance of a shot.
