Product Information

When you use it to cut down on reflections, the effect on something like water is pretty profound. In this example, I used it on the water of a canal I was walking by and it completely cut the reflections out.

Filter is equipped with a straight knurling edge for non-slip along with easy attachment and removal. It is always a good idea to keep your filters clean with a cleaning accessory and this stands true with CPL’s. A filter which has water spots, dust or other grime will sometimes degrade the final image, and can show as minor softening or blur in the photograph.A polarising filter will work with most camera systems and are not brand specific in any way. They range in price and quality from inexpensive entry level to professional-grade options. The defining factors include the amount of light which will enter the lens, which is referred to as light transmission, to the coatings on the filter which keep it clean and grease-free. The more light which enters the lens the better on the whole, as the shutter speed will be less affected. Polarisers will generally decrease light transmission by an EV stop down to two or three stops. The quality of the glass used in the filter is very high, with no noticeable color casting and image degradation. After extensive testing on a multitude of lenses, I can confirm that this filter does not noticeably affect the image quality.

Marumi makes the DHG Super Circular PL in an impressive number of sizes and if you have a collection of lenses with different sized filter threads, the price of the polarisers makes it tempting to buy one for each of them rather than use step-up rings. However, with a 105mm filter costing less than some 82mm filters, it’s tempting to buy the biggest and know that you’ve got everything covered.This system means the polarizer is large at 105mm in diameter, allowing it to cover numerous different lens diameters. It’s also very easy to rotate, and it clips into the holder much more easily than trying to screw a conventional polarizer onto your lens. However, the clip-in mechanism is surprisingly difficult to detach again, requiring more squeeze than is comfortable. Another consideration is the combined filter, holder and adapter ring cost, which is significant.
