Excellent quality Cir Polarizing Filter

I have been changing iout a few of my Nikon lenses for some new Zeiss glass that yields better results with my high megapixel Nikon D850. I’ve spent twice as much for other filters an never gotten better quality. Excellent build, metal and glass, the threads front and back feel like they have lubrication on them, easy fit, easy spin and no sticking. The new “T” coating that matches my lenses is almost glare proof, even if you want it. I’ve never understood spending $ on a lens then putting a filter on it, don’t skimp, get the Zeiss no mater what lens you buy, you wont be sorry.

Great filter of very high quality build that is simple to use while maintaining the very high optical demand in conjunction with my D850 and top grade lenses.

Carl Zeiss T1 UV filter

By CARL D.

This is another fine Carl Zeiss lens product. This UV lens filter is treated with Zeiss T 1 coating which makes it a sought after effect for photographers as well as video creation and movies. Thanks.

If you're seeking to enhance your photography with richer colors and greater contrast, the Zeiss 86mm Carl T* Circular Polarizer Filter is an essential tool for any photographer looking to elevate their images. This high-quality filter is specifically designed to minimize reflections and glare by selectively filtering out light that has been polarized due to bouncing off non-metallic surfaces. The result is a noticeable increase in the saturation of blues and greens in your landscapes, making skies appear more vivid and foliage more lush.

The filter's ability to cut through haze is particularly beneficial for outdoor photographers who aim to capture crisp, clear images even when shooting distant subjects. Moreover, the Zeiss Circular Polarizer is adept at reducing unwanted reflections in glass and on water, allowing for more transparent and undisturbed views of your subject matter.

What sets a circular polarizer apart from a linear one is its incorporation of a quarter wave plane. This sophisticated addition circularly polarizes the light, ensuring that your camera's autofocus and auto-exposure functions continue to operate seamlessly. This feature is crucial for modern DSLRs and mirrorless systems that rely on these mechanisms for optimal performance.

Coated with Zeiss's proprietary T* anti-reflective coating, the filter boasts an improved light transmission, ensuring that your images are captured with maximum clarity and minimal loss of quality. This coating also serves to diminish reflections on the filter's own surface, further contributing to the overall sharpness and quality of your photographs.

The filter's slim profile is meticulously engineered to prevent vignetting when used with wide-angle lenses, making it a versatile addition to your kit. Despite its slender design, the filter still offers front filter threads, providing the flexibility to stack additional filters as needed without compromising on functionality.

Crafted with precision and care, the Zeiss 86mm Carl T* Circular Polarizer Filter is a testament to Zeiss's commitment to enhancing the photographic experience with superior optical accessories. Whether you're capturing expansive landscapes, vibrant cityscapes, or dynamic wildlife scenes, this filter is an indispensable asset for achieving breathtakingly beautiful results.

Zeiss 86mm T* Circular Polarizer Filter Features

  • Helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface
  • Clears up haze in distant landscapes and provides more saturated, vivid colors
  • Strongest effect when used at a 90deg. angle from the sun
  • Circular polarizers are ideal for use with digital cameras and autofocus lenses where a linear polarizer will often disrupt auto exposure and focus features
  • T* anti-reflective helps to reduce surface reflections in order to produce greater light transmission for a higher quality image
