4 out of 5 stars Good polarizer - some vignetting   September 4, 2008
In general a nice inexpensive polarizer. Got some very nice pictures on a sunny day in the Swiss Alps.

However, the ring is quite thick. This led to some vignetting when I had my Nikon VR18-200 in the 18-35mm range in some shots.

Note that unlike the HMC UV filter I have from Hoya, which is made in Japan, this less expensive filter is made in the Philippines. Definitely not the same quality.



4 out of 5 stars good   August 19, 2008
It came without any scratches, and the rotating filter is smooth. I have not had the chance to install it yet, but the construction (so far) is pretty well built.


5 out of 5 stars Great Filter   August 2, 2008

Great performance as expected from Hoya at an outstanding price. Filter effectively removes glare and provides a nice contrast to landscaping shops. A must for any outdoor photographer.

Take care not to over-tighten. Without groves filter can be difficult to remove from lens.

I am very pleased with this product. I have a very nice nikon 18-200mm lens and when I use this polarizer my lens stays sharp. Photos I have taken at the lake and the waterfall look really great...you can see through to the bottom and glare is cut.....great buy for the money!!


5 out of 5 stars Good price/performance filter   January 21, 2008

I have owned Hoya filters for years, so I had no qualms about this polarizing filter, even though there are far more expensive filters you can buy.

I was concerned that a polarizing filter may not work as well on the newer dSLR cameras as they did on the old film cameras, but that does not seem to be a problem. A cool bonus: This 72 mm filter also fits our new Canon XH-A1 HD video camera. Two birds with one filter!

The glass is not coated, so you should consider getting an inexpensive UV filter as protection from scratches, etc.
