Comments about Hoya Hoya 72mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter:

I did not find a quality lens cheaper. It is easy to use but it's application is not for all uses. It will darken the picture, but of course if you intend to photoshop everything that is not all bad either.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 72mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter:

Bought this in Aug 2007.
Had good results from the filter. But the front and
back of the polarizing filter separated in May 2009.
This was made by Tokina, serial# 0-24066-01213-5.
Very disappointed by the durability of the filter.

Comments about Hoya Hoya 72mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter:

I have only had the chance to use this a couple of times but have been happy with the results. I have had another polarizer on a different lense for years and purchased this one to go on my new 28-135 zoom and think it gives just as good of an effect as my previous polarizer did. I use it for landscapes and it really helps with the saturation for my blues as well as my reds when shooting in southern Utah.
