Is Tiffen polarizer good?
Tiffen 77mm Circular Polarizer Filter Many of the company’s filters have been much maligned, but their multi-coated circular polarizers are absolutely phenomenal. The Tiffen Digital HT Multi-Coated Circular Polarizer is the best circular polarizer Tiffen offers. These filters are coated against flare and scratching.
Which polarizer is best?
The best polarizing filters
- Marumi DHG Super Circular PL. This is one of the best polarizing filters for value for money.
- Hama Polarizing Filter, circular, AR coated.
- 3. Lee Filters LEE100 Polariser.
- Cokin P-series P164.
- B+W XS-Pro Digital HTC Kasemann MRC Nano.
- Hoya PRO1 Digital Circular PL.
What is SR polarizer?
LINEAR (SR) Minimizes light reflections from glass and water Reduces glare from non-metallic surfaces. Provides a general color saturation to both cool and warm tones. Light is polarized by both the filter and the beam-splitting meter which results in double polarization.
Are Tiffen filters stackable?
You can certainly stack a Tiffen Warm filter or a Circular Polarizer with a UV Protector or a Sky 1 filter, but stacking filters can reduce image quality slightly and we wouldn’t recommend it as the ideal solution, especially with the Circular Polarizer.
Which is better Hoya or b + w MRC?
The more basic B+W F-Pro MRC has a standard range of multi-coatings and a thick profile – though still thinner than Hoya’s filters. The XS-Pro ‘Nano’ edition, on the other hand, has an ultra-thin profile and features uprated coatings which are water- and dirt-resistant, as well as extremely anti-reflective. It is also easier to clean.

How can you tell a CPL filter from a linear polarizing filter?
Coupling two types of polarizing filters together means the filter can be turned to create different levels of effect. You can also tell a CPL filter from a linear polarizing filter as the effects can only be viewed when looking through the back of a CPL filter.
