B + W 67mm Basic Circular Polarizer MRC Filter #66-1100752

You can capture the vibrant hues of a deep blue sky or the rich colors of autumn foliage with the 67mm Basic Circular Polarizer MRC Filter. This B+W polarizing filter, a crucial tool for both analog and digital photography, enhances the natural colors in your shots and boosts color saturation.

The rotating filter mounts allow you to visibly control the polarization effect directly through your camera's viewfinder or monitor display. This B+W polarizer also reduces reflections from non-metallic surfaces like water, glass, and glossy paint, making objects and people behind these surfaces visible again. This unique feature provides an intriguing image enhancement without the need for post-processing.

Designed as a circular polarizer, this filter is compatible with almost all modern cameras, especially when beam splitters are used in the light path for TTL exposure metering or autofocus. This compatibility ensures that exposure errors are avoided. The filter's multiplying factor with HTC ranges from 2 to 3, equivalent to 1 to 1.5 f-stops, while other polarizers can reach up to approximately 3 stops.

In landscape photography, the maximum polarization effect is achieved when shooting at a 90-degree angle to the sun. To ensure an even effect in your photos, and due to uneven skylight polarization, your focal length should ideally not be less than 28 mm in 35 mm format. With the right orientation, this polarizer can completely suppress reflections in ideal situations. An ideal situation here refers to when the lighting and shooting angles are almost the same and correspond to the angle of maximum polarization, typically between 30 to 40 degrees.

In summary, the 67mm Basic Circular Polarizer MRC Filter is a vital tool for photographers looking to enhance their images' color saturation and reduce unwanted reflections.
