Darned expensive, but excellent glass. Much easier to clean than those cheap filters.

B+W makes some of the best filters around. I know they're expensive, but do not put a cheap, unmulticoated filter on a quality piece of glass. A brass frame also helps keep filters from binding to the lens. [Keep a rubber jar lid remover in your bag if any filter does.] Read the text on the website for the qualities of the glass B+W uses.

As best I can tell this filter does not degrade the optical quality of the L series lenses I mount it on. (I use a 77-82 step ring to accommodate several lenses)

Mounted on a 24-70 II, don't use a UV filter also or you will have slight vignetting at 24mm.

Have never used another brand so I have no frame of reference but I am happy with the results I get.

I bought this for my 16-35 Canon wide angle zoom because at 82mm I had no other polarizer that fit. It killed me to push the button for this and place the order, due the cost, but the only filter I use is a polarizer, so I needed one. I could have bought a less expensive one, but after doing some research, I decided to go the extra. I have 3 other polarizers now, and have owed others based on various lenses I have owned. This is by far the best one. The fit is great, and the effect is more natural (to me - subjective opinion) than what some the less expensive ones do ... less "over done". I ordered one for my 77MM lenses.

Once you get over the price, there's no denying this is a high quality filter. Built well and very effective, its worth the sting to your wallet!

Everything about this filter says quality. Very well made, very heavy, will last you a lifetime if you take care of it. With digital you don't really need too many filters, but a Circular Polarizer is a must in some situations, and this one really does the job. The only negative is the price.
