Explore the world of photography with our high-quality 55mm Linear Polarizer Filter. This versatile tool is a must-have for both color and black and white photography, offering an array of picture-taking possibilities. Unlike colored filters, which can alter the colors in your photographs, our polarizing filter maintains color neutrality, enhancing contrast and color saturation without compromising the original hues.Natural light, particularly sunlight, is polarized and possesses high color purity. However, as it passes through the atmosphere, a portion of it scatters, resulting in a bluish-gray haze that can dull your images. Our durable polarizing filter effectively reduces or eliminates this effect, allowing the true colors of your scene to reach your film or sensor.When light falls at an angle of approximately 35 degrees onto a reflective surface like water, glass, or plastic, it becomes reflected and polarized. With our easy-to-use polarizing filter, these reflections are absorbed, making water surfaces appear transparent and clouds more saturated. The light loss associated with a polarizing filter ranges between 1 and 1.5 F stops, which can be manually or automatically corrected depending on your camera type.Our Heliopan polarizing filters are constructed with a neutral color foil cemented between two plane parallel glass discs. This design allows light rays to pass only in one plane, enhancing the polarizing effect. The filter is mounted in a calibrated rotating ring, enabling you to easily set the desired position and effect. With an SLR, you can see the result in the finder, while with viewfinder type cameras, you can hold the polarizer in front of the eye and adjust it to achieve the desired effect.Remember, there are two types of polarizers: linear and circular. Our 55mm Linear Polarizer Filter is ideal for camera systems where the built-in light measuring system uses light that has passed through the mirror via a beam splitter. This light is already partially polarized, and using linear polarizing filters can lead to correct focusing measurements. Enhance your photography skills and capture stunning, vivid images with our 55mm Linear Polarizer Filter. Please note that it's not advisable to use the filter if no effect is visible, as the available light conditions may not be polarizable. Avoid overheating of the polarizing filter for optimal performance.

Needed a 67mm polarizer for my camera lens

Good Filter

A linear polarizer fulfills the role of a polarizing filter for mirrorless cameras. The Heliopan filter works very effectively in providing glare reduction and providing blue skies for various outdoor shots with a mirrorless lens. Would highly recommend.
