Advertisement Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Hi Photoskeptic, Take a look here Has anyone used a polarizer on M8?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
robsteve Posted June 25, 2007 Share #2 Posted June 25, 2007 John: I have not used the polarizer with the M8 much because a lot could be done in post processing. After seeing your post, I decided to give it a try. I used the 35mm Summicron ASPH and the Leica universal polarizer. A b+W UV-IR filter was fitted to the lens as well, with the polarizer retaing ring screwed into this filter. I shot on manual exposure and when processed in lightroom, set the colour balance on both files to 5900, +9. Here it is without a polarizer. With the Polarizer: It seems to work just like it did with slide film. It darkens the skies and helps with the greens by cutting out some of the reflection of the green foilage.

DaveEP Posted June 25, 2007 Share #3 Posted June 25, 2007 I got the kenko polarizer set from Robert White, and it works very well..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
