PolarPro 95mm QuartzLine Circular Polariser Filter

PolarPro 95mm QuartzLine Circular Polariser Filter

The 95mm QuartzLine Circular Polariser Filter from PolarPro helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarised due to reflection from a nonmetallic surface. The light from the sun naturally becomes partially polarised due to reflecting off electrons in air molecules, causing the light to scatter into what appears as haze. A polarising filter arranges and filters this directionally polarised light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing for the absorption of much of this light. This results in a noticeable reduction of glare and reflections from nonmetallic surfaces and an increase in the saturation of skies and foliage.

A circular polariser only differs from a linear polariser in that it contains a quarter wave plane in addition to the linear polarising filter. The addition of this quarter wave plane is to circularly polarise the linearly polarised light for the use of autofocus and exposure functions. Due to how the light is broken down and filtered with a linear polariser, autofocus and exposure accuracy become skewed during use. When the light becomes circularly polarised, it permits the use of these functions.

This filter is constructed from quartz glass for enhanced durability. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, 16 layers of anti-reflection coatings offer scratch protection to the filter substrate while promoting clarity and colour fidelity. The coatings associated with the PolarPro 95mm QuartzLine Circular Polariser Filter also result in an improved beading effect when in contact with water or oil, allowing for more efficient cleaning.

The quartz glass is set within a brass filter ring with side knurlings that can be rotated in order to adjust the intensity of the polarisation effect. Together, the brass material and knurlings prevent jamming and provide additional strength, as well as a textured grip when mounting or removing this filter from a lens.

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.

Circular polarisers are ideal for use with digital cameras and autofocus lenses where a linear polariser will often disrupt auto exposure and focus features.

The 2.5x filter factor reduces exposure by 1.3 stops.

Constructed from quartz glass for enhanced durability.

Multicoated to prevent internal ghosting and reflections while promoting clarity as well as colour fidelity.

Brass filter ring helps to prevent jamming and provides additional strength. This 95mm filter ring has standard filter threads, not coarse filter threads. A coarse filter thread adapter is separately available.

Filter ring can be rotated to adjust the intensity of the polarisation effect.

95mm front filter threads allow for use with other filters.

Side knurlings provide a textured grip when mounting or removing from a lens.

Includes microfiber cloth for cleaning and maintenance.

Plastic filter case for storage and transport.
