CompareHoya 86mm Polarizer Filter
The Hoya 86mm Polarizer Filter helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. The light from the sun naturally becomes partially polarized due to reflecting off electrons in air molecules, causing the light to scatter into what appears as haze. A polarizing filter arranges, and filters, this directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing for the absorption of much of this light. This results in a noticeable reduction of glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces. Also an increase in the saturation of skies and foliage.
This filter is non-coated and has approximately 93% average light transmission. It is constructed from optical glass and precision-milled aluminum-alloy frames.

Note: Linear Polarizers are not recommended for digital cameras. The way a linear polarizer works commonly interferes with most digital camera autofocus systems. For digital cameras, it is best to use a Circular Polarizer.
