A: B+W High-Transmission MRC-Nano Master Circular Polarizer Filter has the nano coating that beads water and makes it easier to clean and also protects the filter against scratches.

The high transmission polarizer filter is also equipped with a grease-free rotating device for smoother rotation.

Q: 9. I'm thinking in buying this CPL for my Zeiss Batis 2/25 - Is it hard to clean or take care? i do street photography in New York City - would a CPL be useful for the type of photos i capture? -Thanks!

A: The ZEISS filters are the best and with any filter requires care like your camera equipment so always use a microfiber cloth with bottled water prior to you shoot. You can always remove dust during processing in PS. Use this filter for shooting water and glass to remove reflections and it will bring out all colors but you can get the deep colors in processing. ZEISS optics are the best. When you use this filter you need to adjust it to the darkest point or your colors will not come out.

Q: 10. Is it OK to install on a lens already has the T* coating? What's going to happen if you double the T* coating?

A: Yes, it's fine. It would only be problematic if the T* coating itself had a distinct color cast, in which case the white balance would need adjusting. However, the coating itself improves light transmission pretty evenly across the spectrum, so you'll only notice the normal color cast of the polarizing layers -- which is pretty neutral on the Zeiss. I think only the Breakthrough Photography polarizers are (or may!) be more neutral.
