FEATURED REVIEWS
Takes polarizing to a whole new level
I always thought polarizes are all practically the same... I was wrong.... This filter is so good I'm sticking with Kaesemann's (B+W) going forward. The pearl slows the lens at least by 2 stops (maybe even 2.5) on a 50mm f1.8 ii Canon The Nikon slows the lens at least by 1.5 on both L lenses 24-70 (gen i) | 70-200mm is (gen 2) 2.8 The B+W 0.5 stops on a 35mm f/2 is usm I own: An old school Pearl Linear Polarizer 52mm Nikon circular polarizer II 77mm (This one) B+W MRC F-Pro 67mm
A win-win purchase
Typical polarizes absorb approximately two stops of light. This new design only requires one stop! That's greater depth of field, a higher shutter speed or lower ISO. Take your pick. It's well made, but I would purchase the lower profile version if your lens is below 24mm on a full-frame camera.
It's time to elevate your photography with the 58mm F-Pro Kaesemann High Transmission Circular Polarizer Filter, featuring MRC Coating. This high-quality, durable filter is designed to enhance your images by increasing color saturation and reducing unwanted reflections. Crafted from top-tier optical glass, this filter guarantees optimal image results, making it an essential tool for any photographer.
The F-Pro Kaesemann filter is not just a polarizer, but a high transmission circular (HTC) polarizer, designed to provide superior light transmission while maintaining the key characteristics of a top-notch B+W polarizing filter. Traditional polarizing filters often result in a loss of up to 2.5 f/stops of light, which can affect your desired depth of field or shutter speed. However, this next-generation HTC filter employs a unique layer of specially selected, high-transmission polarizing foil, reducing light loss to a mere 1-1.5 stops. This makes it an effective solution for low light situations, ensuring you never miss a shot due to poor lighting conditions.
The filter's multi-coated MRC coating is another standout feature, designed to minimize reflections, glare, and lens flare. This results in improved image quality and contrast, making your photos stand out. Furthermore, the rounded, circular design of the filter helps to reduce vignetting, providing a more even distribution of light for a uniform and natural-looking image.
Easy-to-use and versatile, this filter is intended for use as a polarizing filter for digital cameras. It works by polarizing the light entering the lens, reducing the amount of light reflected off surfaces like water or glass. This enhances the overall contrast and saturation of your images, while also reducing glare.
In addition, the professional F-Pro mount Kasemanns feature a front thread for additional accessories, making it a versatile addition to your photography kit. Whether you're capturing the vibrant colors of a sunset or the intricate details of a cityscape, the 58mm F-Pro Kaesemann High Transmission Circular Polarizer Filter with MRC Coating is your key to stunning photography.
