52mm filter.

I use this on the brightest days and it works beautifully!

Excellent glass, and great for the price!

If you need a very large polarizer...

Very thin and works quite well --  I can easily rotate the filter on a 50mm/1.8 lens with the hood attached.

Great filter for the $$$

It is nice and thin and works quite well.

This filter was suggested by the manual that came with my Pentax macro lens. It did as stated in the manual. It helped with focusing when it came to minute details.

suggested filter

This circular polarizer was purchased for use with a Fujifilm pancake lens. It had to be small and thin enough to allow the lense to move and focus freely when installed. It does the job and was fairly reasonable in cost. Try not to overthink it.

small 39mm polarizer

I have only used the polarizer a short time. From my experience with it I would rank it with more costly polarizers from more well known brands. I can detect no ghosting or aberrations. There is almost no light loss so no f-stop compensation is necessary. For the price I would recommend this filter to anyone looking for a low cost performance polarizing filter.

VU Sion Slim Circular Polarizing 77mm Filter

Good product 

It is truly slim, so that it doesn't vignette a wide angle lens. Polarizing effect noticeable and easy to adjust. Highly recommended at this value price point.

thin filter for wide angle

Very thin so I am not likely to get any vignetting with my wider lenses.  Quality seems top notch. 

Might be tough to turn for someone with fat fingers or gloves due to the thinness. 

Not sure why the package touts "hand crafted and hand inspected German optics" when the package says Made in China.

Very thin with front threads

Great filter for the price..I am using it on a Sigma 10-20mm  and as of yet I have not had problems with the sky being darker in the corners of the pics and I was using it on the 10mm setting. The only problem I have had is my hood is a little harder to attach than normal but I expected that due to ridges to adjust filter.

Why spend hundreds on a filter..try this one.

The filter does what it is supposed to do, though perhaps not as crisply and decisively as other polarizing filters that I have. But I needed on for a big lenses and the price was right. The construction seems a bit on the flimsy side, so I have to take care when screwing it on and off.

It works

I was directed to this filter by Daniel Gee in the store and as always he got it right.  Quality glass at a great price.  I tried it out immediately and loved the results. 

Quality glass at a great price

Manages to polarize light reflected from non-metallic surfaces and seems to be well-made.

It works.

This filter does the job. No frills, but solidly made.

Does the job.

The performance of this polarizing screen is exemplary, providing good control of its effects, such as handling reflections and deepening colors. Its shortcoming is how easily the filter unscrews and drops off. I ordered three, as this is a problems I've incurred in the past. Additionally, securing the screen with a little extra ratcheting makes it almost impossible to remove it quickly. I place wide rubber bands on my lenses in order to grip the screen to remove it. The problem, for me, is characteristic of all "thin" polarizing screens, this one included.

Does the Job, Mostly

This filter appears to be very well made.  Looks good on the camera also.

Nice Filter

Great for the price

It's great!! Spend the extra to get good glass and get great images because of it. Go with cheap filters and ruin every shot - your choice....

Good glass

Appears to be well constructed. The problem with the one I received is it wouldn't screw into my new Sigma 150-600mm lens. I am returning for a for a replacement. Looks like it's worth trying another and the reviews were very good. Will get back to you on the replacement.

Great Filter if it fits

This is a great filter but the best of it was it went on my new 70-200 Niikon lens. This is also a great lens. I have only had the lens a few months but what I see so far it's outstanding

Great filter and better yet great 70-200 Nikon lens. Love them both

Needed filter for new lease and this is just what was needed and performance was exceptional.

Great Choice

This filter has some of those extras that really show knowledge of user's needs.
1. Thin design to avoid vignetting.
2. Unlike my older thin polarizers, this still is threaded on the front to to take other filters and mount shades or other accessories.
3. Some good sized ridges on the metal ring to give traction to fingers trying to unscrew the filter.
4. Great price compared to other high quality filters.

Great Filter

As advertised! Quality filter with a great little protective case. Works perfectly. Very satisfied! Excellent price too!

Great Polarizing Filter

The filter gives just the right amount of polarization and keeps the picture crystal clear.  

Happily satisfied.

I bought this product knowing two things that I needed a replacement CPL filter aside from using the Hoya CPL filter that I already owned and two because I wanted to use this with my Vu 100m filter holder. Why I decided to buy this was that the Hoya CPL which I owned already was giving me color cast. That isn't that big of a deal but I wanted something that I wouldn't have to color correct in photoshop. This filter achieved that and had no vignetting which I liked due to the slim aluminium ring. As a professional photographer on the run I've been testing out filter brands from; Hitech, Hoya, Tiffen, and so far Vu filters hasn't let me down. Would highly recommend this to my other colleagues in the field.

A must have accessory!

The actual filter on this 40.5mm circular polarizer is not secured within its housing ring.  it is apparently so much smaller that it rolls ahead when the ring is turned in either direction.  As a result, just as the polarizer arrives at the desired sweet-spot it lurches ahead within it's housing to rest at a filtration point that is worthless, over and over.

bad design or botched production

I like this filter very much...seems very well made, very thin and I particularly like the knurled adjusting ring!

Worth the price

I got 2 different filters,a 62mm & a72mm which i'am really pleased with.
