This review is from: Hoya 72mm Pro1 Digital Circular PL Filter (Electronics)
Having read generally favourable reviews of this product and having a high regard for Hoya products I purchased this filter just prior to a visit to India and the Himalayan foothills. It arrived very speedily. It has been a joy to use making the most of the blue skies and snow caps of the area. It was easy to fit over my UV filter and the lens cap would also fit so I felt secure. The filter was easy to adjust and smooth in use. I would recommend the product for landscape photography.

I have been into photography for a couple of years now. Having read up on the various filters I thought that I had better get a polarising filter.
I initially purchased one for the cokin filter system which although it has its benefits is a bit of a pain to use and set up hence why I got one of the hoya circular filters.
The results I get with this filter are amazing, I have used it on various holidays and I am always amazed by the results. When it is sunny I get lovely deep blue skies which is great for the snowsport photography I mainly do and you can rotate it to get the right amount of effect that you are after.
Similarly it takes the glare off things like water, metal objects making your photos look more natural.
I mainly use it on a canon 15-85mm and at the wide end I get no vignetting thanks to how thin the filter is.
For anyone serious about their photography a circular polarising filter must be in your kit bag.

I got this filter for my Nikon D300. I mainly utilize this filter for landscapes (& panoramas) to increase contrast and color vibrancy and to cut off reflections from non-metallic surfaces. So far, it’s been a wonderful asset. Glass quality is brilliant, does not stain from water droplets, does not get scratched from dust. The only backside of this filter, which was expected, is that one looses two thirds of a stop when mounted.
