Hoya 58mm Polarising Filter
Helping to reduce reflections and glare, the Hoya 58mm Polarising Filter out light that has become polarised due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. By filtering this light, a noticeable increase in the saturation of skies and foliage is possible, as well as the ability to produce clearer imagery when photographing in hazy conditions. The filter is constructed from optical glass and is mounted with and against wear. A linear polariser defines a durable, lightweight aluminium ring that has a hard-anodised finish to differs from a circular polariser in that it does not support the use of a camera’s autofocus or auto exposure functions; it is best suited for use with manual cameras, such as view cameras, that are not dependent on internal mechanisms to determine focus or metering settings.
Features:
-
Helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarised due to reflection from a non-metallic surface.
-
Polarising filters arrange, and filter, directionally polarised light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing for the absorption of much of the light.
-
Clears up haze in distant landscapes and provides more saturated vivid colours.
-
Strongest effect when used at a 90° angle from the sun.
-
Optical glass construction maintains image clarity.
-
The aluminium filter ring is both lightweight and durable and features a hard-anodised finish to guard against scratching and wear.
