CPL Polarizer Lens Filter (58mm)

Pros: Makes the skies bluer and the reflections disappear. Could probably use it as a temporary lens protector to keep your lens free from dirt or debris. Fun to experiment with.

Cons: Makes your pictures "soft". Low quality piece of glass so it changes the quality of your pictures as well.

Other: If you are looking to experiment with this filter by making your pictures "soft" (not sharp), by all means get this filter. It IS fun to remove the reflections off of leaves or sunglasses or even your dog's shiny coat. But at the expense of image quality? No, you should probably invest in a better piece of glass somewhere else.

Pros: it is a CPL and it works generally, but when stacking two Massa CPLs I was unable to get complete blocking of light, so I guess it's polarizing isn't perfect.

Cons: it softens your images, the glass isn't of very high quality.
The softening was less problematic on shorter focal lengths but when I mounted it on 300mm lens the images suffered from some bluring.

Other: I now use it only on my 28-90mm lens(Equivalent) and I regard this buy as having the chance to experimenting with low quality CPL for a cheep price.
if I will start to use the CPL more, I will have to get a better one.

Pros: - You just can't beat this price
- Works just as good as my old Tiffen filter, but at a fraction of the cost
- Can be used as a ND filter as well as a Polarizing filter

Cons: - I found the threading on the filter to be a bit rough, but this does not effect the use of the product.

Other: Don't look at the price... don't think about it... just buy this product. It works great.

Pros: It's cheap. It's work, you can clearly see difference between a images with and without the filter. I can't notice any quality decrease when I use this filter in bright sunny day.

Cons: Threads could be weakest part of this product because it's "moving" and wearing part.

Other: It's cheap, so it's especially good if you don't know do you need polarizer filter or not: you can buy it and test it, if you don't need it you don't lose lot of money (and you can sell it for someone of course).

Pros: It´s a CPL Polarizer Lens Filter, period. It does what it was designed for. blocks almost 100% of polarized light (test it in front of and lcd monitor for yourself, it has polarized output, so it will be black in front of the monitor)

Cons: none that I can think of, let´s see if painting and thread last for long, but I think it will.

Other: Need a CPL Polarizer Lens Filter? Buy this one without fear.

Pros: Does what a polarizer is expected to do. Tested it with my DSLR on photos through glass windows, water and other surfaces and works. For pictures from use in internet up to letter format quality is OK

Cons: No real cons. Compared to price a great product but a good photograph can see a loss of quality in very high resolution photos.

Other: Comes in a square plastic box and not in a round one like on the pictures. But this box is also great for transport of the filter in my photo bag and protects the filter.

Pros: Obviously there are much better filters out there but this one does exactly what it says it does. It cuts the glare and adds contrast to skies. I use it with my 18-55mm kit lens. The filters fits without any issues and does what is expected of it. For the price I paid, I am really happy with the product. I always use it while taking pictures during the day and I love the way it improves color saturation.

Cons: The only bad thing is that the filter can rotate while the auto focus is moving. It was not all the time and was easy to correct but it can be annoying.

Other: Being new to digital SLRs and using filters, I enjoy just toying with it - and the camera settings. So far, this filter has done what I need it to, gone are the blown out "white" skies I used to get.

Pros: It is really cheap! You can't beat this price! Check your local shops. Build quality on he top level! Also good package is available. You can check this on photo on the product's page. Standard screw thread for 58mm lenses. Also you can attach standard lens cap over this UV filter without any problems! Rotating outer ring presented. For example, Canon lenses are rotated while focusing. So, here you can select the best point after focusing by this outer ring. All lens flares are removed! Just rotate this filter to select the best picture!

Cons: None. Really none! As I already mention, problems with automatically rotated lenses are disappeared because outer ring is flexible!

Other: I can suggest this UV filter to any interested person! I hope my review will be helpful!

Pros: Well it actully have a very nice build quality, feels nice and solid. The threading might be a wee bit of but it doest affect the performance. Outer ring of the lens can be rotated, meaning that even if your lens moves while focusing you can adjust the filter so it still works. Filter does what it suposed to and gives good results

Cons: The threading is a bit of, nothing major though.

Other: If you want a polarizing filter on the cheap this is it, works great and is really cheap compared to other brands.
