Tiffen 77mm Circular Polarizer is a solid

The Tiffen 77mm Circular Polarizer is a solid, dependable filter that does exactly what you want a CPL to do. It helps cut glare, reduce reflections, and bring out richer color in skies, water, and foliage. The glass quality is good, the build feels reliable, and it threads on easily. A practical choice for photographers who want good performance without overspending.

Tiffen magic again

Great glass. Does exactly what you need. Darkens sky removes glare lake shots live again?

I have never had a problem buying from Adorama.

I have always used and totally trust Tiffen filters for all my cameras, and I always shop from Adorama for the best service, the fairest prices, and their helpfulness.

A must for architectural shoots and the price is right.

This circular polarizer filter is a must in my kit back - essential for reducing bright reflections and glare, it ups the quality of my images & highlights architectural details. A must for architectural shoots, and the price is right.

Good Quality, Good Value

I purchased this polarizer to use on pro glass. This is a great filter. Good workmanship and materials. Fit and finish are excellent and the low-profile threads offer smooth mounting. The Tiffen filters that I have purchased over the years have been of consistently high quality in all sizes, and are always a great value.

Excellent CP filter for cutting down glare

The Tiffen CP lens filter is a great, high quality filter. I used it on my Canon EOS 80D to shoot video footage at a car show. In years past I would shoot video without a CP filter and always got glare on the car windows that prevented proper viewing of the interiors of these cars. With the Tiffen I was able to get excellent footage and cut down on a lot of the window glare reflections. I am very happy with this lens filter and wish I had bought one earlier!

Nikon 14-140mm lens and Tiffen 67mm CPL-great combination!

Like all of the Tiffen products,their filters are top notch and Adorama 's pricing is a winning combination! I am very pleased with my purchase.

Good quality but the least used item in my camera bag.

Unless you have a specific need for eliminating the glare and not being able to compose around the glare or plan the time of day to avoid it, I wouldn't bother with a circular Polarizer filter. It can make the sky look evil and strange, so the benefits are often a trade-off with the down sides. The product is good quality but I find that this filter is the least used item in my camera bag.

Compared to other brands, this provides great value for the price. Awesome product and works as good as any I have used that are 2 or 3 times the cost.

Filter done right.

A very well functioning polarizing filter. The machining of the threads is excellent and therefore mounting is very smooth. Turning the variable filter is likewise very easy.

Tiffen Polarizer Filter

The only problem I had with the filter is that there was only 1 screw thread. It was difficult to get it to stay on the lens and when I did get it to stay, I didn?t trust it to stay. Everything else about the filter was excellent. Because I believe this was a one-off issue that happened to sneak past Tiffen QC, I would still recommend the filter.

This Tiffen circular-polarized filter works perfectly, just as have all the Tiffen filters I own or owned, and is reasonably priced.

Circular Polarizer

I bought it for a smallish Sony mirrorless. Fits perfectly. For me, it gives just the right range of polarization.

Tiffen filters never fail to deliver.

Tiffin filters are the industry standard for a reason, they are consistent and reliable, their polarizer is no exception.

Good filter

Works just as expected for a CP filter. Bought this one as my old one got scratched when I dropped the lens. Thank goodness it was the filter, not my front element of my lens that took the hit!

About Tiffen 52mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter

Just imagine capturing the perfect shot with enhanced color and contrast, free from the whitish glare that often washes out the vibrancy in your images. The 52mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter is designed to do just that. This essential tool for outdoor photography helps in producing deep, dramatically blue skies while eliminating unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as windows and water bodies.

The 52mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter not only improves color saturation significantly, especially in outdoor settings, but also adds depth to your black and white photography. By combining this Polarizer with a Red 25 filter (sold separately), you can create incredibly dramatic black and white landscapes.

This versatile filter can be rotated to achieve the desired effect, giving you complete control over your image output. For even more dramatic effects, pair the 52mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter with an enhancing filter.

Designed to fit both standard and wide-angle lenses, this filter is also compatible with cameras equipped with beam-splitting metering systems, commonly found on auto-focus SLRs. For most 35mm auto-focus cameras, refer to your camera manual for compatibility.

To effectively polarize the sky with a Circular Polarizer, simply point your index finger at the sun, extend your thumb at a right angle (90 degrees), and rotate it around the axis of the index finger. This will help you identify the band of deepest blue from horizon to horizon, enhancing your landscape photography like never before.

With the 52mm Circular Polarizer Glass Filter, you can elevate your photography game, capturing stunning images with improved color saturation and contrast.
