Circular Polarizing Filter Tutorial - CPL Filter

Do you want to know what a Circular Polarizing (Polarising) Filter does? Here is a tutorial on how to use your CPL filter with before and after examples.

Just a point, I don't mention is that the CPL can change your exposure settings on your camera (make your photo darker) so you might want to adjust when using the filter. ALSO you need to purchase a filter that has the same diameter as the lens that you want to use it with.

Please feel free to ask any photography questions and I will do my best to help.

Hello, I've been using Hoya Slim CPL filter, and the results seems unsharpened a bit, and it seems blurry, also it becomes -2 stop. Is it because cheap CPL effect?

[yilinluo]

What if I argue that the actual problem with the w/out CPL photos is overexposure...

[bobvila]

Thanks you for great video! If you have protecting clear filter on your lens, do you generally remove it before installing your CP filter? I'm planning to buy a thin CP to avoid vignette. Thanks again!!
