This filter is amazing. It makes the skies bluer, and the clouds stand out so much better. Also, it arrived the day before a big car show, and without it my pictures wouldn't have been anywhere as good.

I've had two other circular polarizing filters, and this just doesn't seem to do quite as well as those did. However, it's satisfactory, and certainly good to have in your bag when you need it. Given the price of circular polarizing filters, unless you really need one often, or have need of a top-notch CP filter for a demanding shot, this will do quite well. Nothing spectacular, but no significant complaint either (using a Nikon D70).

I dont really know what to say in a review for this item. It works, it works well, it works exactly as described, it fits easily onto my lenses, it doesnt scratch easily, it's easy to maintain, it hasnt fallen apart. It's exactly what I wanted and was expecting

I bought one of these - heard all the talk about some polarisers messing up auto-focus so went with the circular (although I don't use auto-focus a lot). I shoot film (Nikon F90X) & frankly I was VERY disappointed: the effect was way milder than I expected. One day as an experiment I shot my digicam thru my sunglasses and voila!! That's the look I was after - the super intense colors & classic "black sky" look. Went to my local camera store & told them that's the look I wanted & they handed over the LINEAR polariser. My Nikon immediately got the look I wanted.

It seems to be photography lore that "thou shalt use a circular polariser", and I spose there must be something to it, but before you hand over the cash just be sure it's gonna work for YOU. I do mostly manual focus of landscape/abstract stuff, so maybe I'm a special case, but I LOVE my **linear** polariser & use it ALL THE TIME, while my circular is in the drawer at home. Buyer beware.

Pretty good filter for the price. Cannot expect the goodness of the more expensive ones
