tobey bilek Posted April 10, 2015 Share #21 Posted April 10, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) As JAAP says, linear is fine. Avoid to older swing out M as they have a green cast , correctable with grey card balance. Later swing outs are fine as is the current. Polas are useful for reflections, but really not necessary for blue skies with digital. Photoshop is better specially with wide lenses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Hi tobey bilek, Take a look here M9 and Polarizer?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted April 11, 2015 Share #22 Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) A Polfilter does more than remove reflections and darken skies. It intensifies and "flattens" colours as well and modifies contrast transitions. The effect is impossible to duplicate fully in postprocessing, to the extent that the "polarisation filter" plugin that B&W introduced a few years ago was an utter failure. You are right about wideangles. As the polarisation effect is dependent on the angle of the light, the effect will be uneven on a wideangle shot.
