Review: Water/land scape shots secret weapon for spectacular results. - Secret weapon for spectacular land/water scape shots. You take a shot. The sky is brilliant deep blue, the clouds brilliant white, and the water is so clear you can see the rocks on the bottom. HOW? Simple, use a polarizer. With today's TTL metering (through the lens) and circular grooving of the surface of the polarizer, there's no twisting to get it to the right angle, and there's no sweating if it will throw the exposure off. Just POINT and SHOOT and love the results. First thing I do with a new camera is put a UV or SKYLIGHT filter on the lens, insurance. Second thing is add a polarizer to inventory. In snow shots, water shots, scenery with blue skies and clouds the filter is magic. And it does all the work. Should be in every photographer's gadget bag. It's in every serious photographer's bag, that I am sure of. It will remove reflections when you shoot through windows. It will add richness and depth to the colors of photographed cars. Just by being there, on the lens.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Water/land scape shots secret weapon for spectacular results.

Secret weapon for spectacular land/water scape shots. You take a shot. The sky is brilliant deep blue, the clouds brilliant white, and the water is so clear you can see the rocks on the bottom. HOW?

*by H***Y on April 23, 2017*

The construction and quality of material used is very good and the two rotating rings used to establish the polarizing effect (and the angle that it applies from the ambient light reaching the lens) is as expected. I would rate this filter as "intermediate" as to the degree it filters out non-polarized light (which creates glare from reflections or creates less than deep blue skies). This effect comes with a combined plus/minus: Plus: This intermediate polarization reduces the f-stop penalty, as all filters creates one, polarizing lens being without exception. Therefore you are more able to get the proper exposure for the aperture setting (depth of field) to your liking as to photo composition. Minus: If looking to obtain really deep blue skies in photos in landscape or "seeing through" water or glass for your photo in well lit situations (say, midday on a sunny day), then this polarizing filter may not be for what what you want. It is better suited for moderate or less strong ambient light situations when using a lens that already as a fairly strong f-stop penalty (as many variable focal length lenses have) to prevent the need to use a tripod (long shutter speed) when using the camera in aperture priority mode.
