What is a polarizing filter?
Light rays which are reflected by any surface can become polarised
so polarising filters are used to select which light rays enter your
camera lens. CIRCULAR PL filters allow you to remove unwanted
reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass etc. They
also enable colors to become more saturated and appear clearer
with better contrast. This effect is often used to increase the contrast
and saturation in blue skies and white clouds. HOYA's polarising
filters do not affect the overall color balance of a shot.
