Tiffen Circular Polarizer
Polarizers provide color and contrast enhancement. Reflected light often shows up as whitish glare that washes out color in an image. A Polarizer corrects this problem producing deep, dramatically blue skies. It also removes glare from non-metallic surfaces, such as windows and water. Color saturation in general, especially outdoors, can be improved significantly. Think of it as sunglasses for your camera.
A Circular Polarizer has the same effect as a Polarizer and is used on cameras with beam splitting metering systems commonly found on auto focus SLR's (for most 35mm auto-focus cameras see your camera manual).
Area of sky most effectively polarized with a Circular Polarizer: Point your index finger at the sun. With your thumb extended at a right angle (90°), rotate it around the axis of the index finger. It will point out the band of deepest blue from horizon to horizon.
Taken with Tiffen Circular Polarizer

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I've taken them both on numerous hikes and in some fairly dangerous conditions. I've thrown them in my camera bag without much regard to their safety, and yet they work fine without any scratches. For the money, Tiffen is great.
First off, the build quality is excellent. It feels sturdy and well-made, fitting perfectly onto my 58mm lens threads. The black finish not only looks sleek but also prevents any unwanted reflections that could affect the image quality.
The primary benefit of this polarizer is its ability to reduce glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water and glass. It works wonders for outdoor photography, bringing out the true colors and enhancing the contrast in skies and foliage. This filter has enabled me to capture the vibrant blues of the sky and the rich greens of nature in a way that was not possible before.
Another aspect where the Tiffen 58CP excels is in reducing haze, which is especially useful on sunny days. It helps to bring out the clarity and crispness in distant objects, making landscape photography more rewarding.
The filter's circular design is user-friendly, making it easy to adjust the level of polarization with a simple twist. This feature provides great flexibility, allowing me to quickly adapt to changing lighting conditions without having to remove the filter.
Moreover, I've found that this polarizer also helps protect my lens from dust, scratches, and fingerprints, which is an added bonus.
In conclusion, the Tiffen 58CP 58MM Circular Polarizer Glass Filter is a fantastic investment for any photographer looking to elevate their outdoor and landscape photography. Its ability to enhance color saturation and contrast while minimizing glare and reflections is impressive. I highly recommend this filter to both amateur and professional photographers for its build quality, performance, and the dramatic improvement it brings to photographs.
I bought the Tiffen as I had read the Tiffen and Cokin filters were the best, and because of other reviews. It is a glass filter that screws in to a 58mm lens end. Others have info on how you can find out if this one will fit yours. I'm sure you can buy it in whatever the right size is for you.
The polarized filter is for blocking reflected light from glass and bodies of water (lakes, ponds, streams, puddles). It can also help to darken the sky in pictures, while not affecting other parts of the picture too much. It does not darken the entire scene, just aspects of it by blocking reflected light. You can control how well it does this by rotating the filter, which is good because if you block out too much light a small puddle can look like a piece of glass on the land, and lose the effect.

Recebi hoje o produto. Produto chegou aberto (não sei se ele vem lacrado de fábrica) e com um risco profundo na lateral (aparenta ser defeito de fábrica), mas está apresentando resistência ao girar o mesmo.

Como precisava fotografar quadros com vidro na frente, lamentavelmente, não resolveu meu problema de reflexos.
Não sei se isso é uma questão desse modelo e marca de filtro específico ou se todos os filtros polarizadores têm o mesmo resultado.
