I really wish I would have picked up a nice CPL last summer. I really could have used it for this shot at my grandpa's farm.
![]() Click for bigger... I guess that's something I should get around to soon, especially with summer coming up and a bunch of photo shoots I have lined up with cars this summer... Stupid B+W Kaseman CPL's for being so expensive. |

I boosted the saturation and messed with the hue.

I told a friend of mine to get a Hoya Pro-1 series filter from e-bay, they're dirt cheap there,
shipped to Israel pretty quickly and now I use it, after he gave it to me for my current vacation in Italy, pretty nice filter and well built, I suggest that you check it out... I will post some photos when i'm back home. ![]() |

No Hoya for me... I'm B+W MRC all the way. Do I really think I'd be able to tell the difference? Probally not, but it's my OCD... All my other lenses (besides my 50 1.8...) have B+W MRC filters on them, and they're generally regarded as being the best.
I've actually heard that the B+W is easier to clean than some of the Hoya filters, so who knows. |

sorry hoya lovers but i absolutely couldnt care any less about hoyas .. i have UV and PL filters from hoya, and other weird brands that came with lenses ... nothing better about hoya. at least that i can see.. There's also the idea that a cheap filter will usually cost what, $20-30 at least where a top of the line (UV) multicoated filter will cost $50-60. Yeah, it's double, but I'm putting it infront of hundreds of dollars of precision engineered glass, I can deal with an extra $30 to know that it's the best available. |

There's quite a few times that I've noticed the difference between a good B+W (Hoya Pro, Heliopan Multi-Coated, etc) and a cheap Tiffen or Promaster filter. If you're shooting in areas where there is alot of contrast and possibility for flare the multicoated filter out preforms the non-coated ones every time. It's not always super aparaent, but if you're looking or know what to look for you can see the deficencies in cheaper filters. ![]() |
