Comments about Nikon Nikon 72mm Circular Polarizer II Thin Ring Multi-Coated Glass Filter:

Used mostly for travel photos. This is a replacement for one I ruined when I fell off a boulder at the base of a lighthouse in Nova Scotia. I wouldn't buy any other, regardless of price.

For more than twice the price of some competitors I expect quality, this it is. I've only been using it a month though so time will tell. I've been happy with it so far.

Less effect than hoped

Comments about Nikon Nikon 72mm Circular Polarizer II Thin Ring Multi-Coated Glass Filter:

I bought this lens to enhance my outdoor photos when glare and reflections are a problem. I use it on a D80 with a 18-200mm lens. Optically it's a fine piece of gear and works just as intended. I do have occasional problems as, when adjusting the polarity while looking through the view finder, I actually unscrew the filter. If the filter is tightened sufficiently to prevent this, removal can be very difficult. It would be nice if the polarizer could be adjusted by using the lens hood but, as it is the filter and the lens hood are incompatable, this is not possible. Optically I would recommend the filter while ergonomically I would not.

Comments about Nikon Nikon 72mm Circular Polarizer II Thin Ring Multi-Coated Glass Filter:

This filter is very well made and includes a very thin mount with threads that allow stacking or installing a lens cap. No vignette at 18mm unless stacking with a graduated ND.

I highly recommend this to get better exposure of the sky in outdoor photography and for improving color.
