Polarising filter with DA*16-50

The price at SRS has gone up significantly recently - so the others will probably follow soon. I would go for the Pro 1 D - get the 77mm and if you have a DA*50-135 get a 77-67 step ring so it can be used there too. I am not suggesting that the ones at CameraWorld are not Hoya, but there were ...

Do you know if it is possible to fit/use the lens hood on the DA*50-135 if a 77-67mm step ring is used? I've taken a look - it seems it may be po...

Polarising filter with DA*16-50

I don't have a polarising here (borrowed!) but have tried with a standard 77mm protector with no step ring and my DA*50-135 and it will fit inside the lens hood - just, so it will need some fiddling to get it in place once the hood is on and use a 77mm lens cap to grip. I don't think it could be d...

Polarising filter with DA*16-50

Just seen your last post ... An step ring will cost £10 of so. A little negotiation with a retailer for 2 small but expensive items could bring the prices down a little so think about getting both now.

Polarising filter with DA*16-50

The hoya pro 1 D gets my vote too. I spent weeks searching for the right polarising filter for my DA 16-50mm and found out that most test results put the hoya on top for quality and effectiveness without disturbing the superior image quality of this lense. You can find it on ebay for a bargain at ar...

I've got an older generation Hoya SHMC polariser and find the results perfectly acceptable. :)

Polarising filter with DA*16-50

Ok thanks for all the advice friends. I cannot let this post end without noting something that has always made me chuckle with filter packaging. The "before" picture will show a glum looking model suffering from a sudden attack of cramp. Miraculously for the "after" picture, the model has sud...

Many a marriage has been saved by the deft application of a carefully chosen filter. Perks things up no end. As you get older, you'll find the rose-tinted ones are best. G

I bought a Kenko filter for £60.0 from SRS when I bought my lens. Most of the filters that I've bought in recent years have come from

15mm f4 Limited owners

Hi, I have this little beauty. I cannot give you IQ info, as I do not do lens testing. IMO it's a waste of good time. The petal hood does not fully retract. I do not think it would have been possible to achieve. That means any filters have to fit inside it, having a diameter no larger than the fr...

Super Tak 85mm 1.8 - is this a reasonable price?

Yea, I shot for many years with the M 2.8/35mm and 2/85mm. Great travel set. Sold both, and my beloved KX (but tempted sometimes to buy it back). Definitely worth doing. I use my KX as the backup body for everything, as it doesn't need batteries to function and is built like a tank. It was last...

Ditching the 50mm 1.4 for a sigma 17-70

Yes, it might take a little while for higher street prices to filter through to second hand values. If they ever do before street prices start to fall again!

Petal lens hood clip out section ?

It's so that you can rotate a polarising filter with the hood on. Tony
