Light rays which are reflected become polarized. This JJC professional ultra slim multi-coated Polarizing filter is used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. It eliminates ultraviolet rays from outdoor shots and polarizes light to reduce unwanted reflections and glare from water, snow, glass, windows, and other non-metallic surfaces. It also saturates colors, providing better contrast. The effect can be seen through the camera's viewfinder and adjusted by rotating the front ring. The filter factor varies based on rotation and orientation to the sun, with the strongest effect at a 90-degree angle from the sun. It is an ideal tool for outdoor and landscape photography.
Features:
* Eliminates ultraviolet rays and reduces reflections/glare from water, snow, glass, and non-metallic surfaces.
* Saturates colors for better contrast, especially in blue skies and white clouds.
* Effect is visible through the viewfinder and adjustable by rotating the front ring.
* Crafted from 0.08" German optical glass with double-sided 18-layer multi-resistant coating for anti-scratch, anti-fingerprint, anti-static, oil, and water resistance.
