Digital camera reviews of HOYA 58CIR 58mm Circular Polarized Filter
Digital camera Review: Good starter filter.
Summary: 5 Stars
Well, I think this polarized filter is probably the best for the price. I'm brand new to DSL' and I kept stumbling over discussion's about polarized filter's and went looking for one. It's true that you get what you pay for. Theres less expensive ones and certainly more expensive circular polarized filter's. There seemed to be a big jump in price (maybe around $60.00)from this price to a better quality filter. So, for your first try at using a polarized filter's, I think this is a fair price. Granted theres better quality out there.Digital camera Review: Great transaction!

Product was in good condition and works as described. Shipping and packing was good too.Digital camera Review: Rocks my socks
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this filter, took me a second to figure out where to spin it to, but once i marked my 0,45, and 90 degree positions taking pictures of water, mirrors and the sky started coming out just like i wanted. I think everyone should have a polarized filter in their kit. and this filter kicks booty for the price.Digital camera Review: good

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 expectingDigital camera Review: Circular versus Linear
Summary: 2 Stars
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.
