Remember, try not to put anything that isn't made from Schott Glass in front of you lens! That's what Leitz (Leica) are made from. It really DOES matter!

I purchased this filter to fit a newly purchased lens in lieu of buying an adapter ring and using a filter I use on other lenses. My other polarizer is also Heliopan and it has served me well for many years. The new one shows the same strengths; smooth and bind-free threads, edge to edge even tones, excellent water, dust and smudge resistance and durability. Higly recommended.

Excellent quality, does not need much cleaning, does not collect dust but it is heavy.

With today's expensive cameras and lenses costing more than every before, when it comes time to select a filter there are alot of less expensive choices than Heliopan. But, it doesn't make a lot of sense to trade a great picture for a good picture. color saturation and anti-reflection so often becomes the difference between "nice shot" and "wow!". Heliopan makes your image pop. The only thing I may have done differently would have been to go with a slim Polarizer. At 77mm, there is always the chance of vignetting. So far, I haven't had that issue, however.

I use the Heliopan circular polarizing filter mostly to enhance the colors in the sky. I do use it, of course, to reduce glare, mostly off water. This filter simply does what it's supposed to do and does it very well. I've never had a Heliopan filter get stuck on a lens. The brass threads work!

I was expecting a new filter. What cam was a scratched up filter case, open in the packing bx. The grooves on the filter ring had some brown rusty gunk on them and there was a brown ring imprint inside the filter case (more of the rusty gunk?)

Used with 18-250MM lens, shooting structures (homes mostly). I use it primarily to block out reflections in windows and produce more contrasting, richer colors, and also to protect the lens. I'm impressed by the quality. Rings are factory marked with numbers, which is nice. Just testing it out on my LCD at home, I achieved nearly 100% polarization (screen almost entirely black). This is the thinnest filter I could obtain, but it still vignettes at 18mm on my lens (not as bad as others I have tried though). There may be no solution but to get a step up ring and move to to a larger filter. It also appeared to have been used, as there was quite a bit of grime on the edge of the glass and the ring appears to have been scratch-marked by the previous owner. I would recommend this to a friend, but only if it were new and not used with a lens like mine. But as for the filter quality, it's top notch. Just be aware that even if the description claims to not vignette, it's no guarantee.

I purchased this filter for use on the Mamiya 7 lenses with a 58mm fitting, and for the Canon 50mm f1.4 & 100mm f2.8 Macro lenses. On the Canons, it works much like any other Polarizer, but image quality reminds me in some ways of the B+W/Heliopan Kaesemann Polarizers. In other words, fantastic results! However, my main reason for choosing it was the added benefit of a numbered front ring; absolutely essential for Range-finder cameras like the Mamiya 7. It does the job perfectly. Tremendous value for money at the current price.
