The Tiffen 67mm Black Satin 1 Filterhelps to reduce the overall contrast of an image and better control the highlights within a scene. In addition to rendering highlights with a grittier, more grainy appearance, this filter also helps to subtly soften facial blemishes and wrinkles for a natural, refined look. The 1 density provides less contrast and highlight reduction than the 2, while still producing a soft, yet natural appearance.

This filter is constructed from Water White glass and is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and mounting to precision metal rings.

Q: 1. Can this filter be used with 300mm f/2.8l usm11 lens?

A: To use this filter with the Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L USM II, you would need the Canon - Drop-In Filter Holder for 52mm Screw-In Filters, BH # CAFHS52 https://bhpho.to/32xuTCE

Q: 2. Will this work with the canon rebel t3 slr? why is it labeled 52 mm? will it work with canon 70-300 zoom lens and canon standard 18-55 mm lens?

A: The Canon Rebel T3 SLR can be used with circular polarizers, however the lens/lenses you use will determine the specific filter size you need. This particular one is labeled 52mm as the diameter (measurement of line through the center) is 52mm wide. The Canon 18-55mm and 70-300mm lenses in this instance both have 58mm sized filter threads to mount filters and lens caps. So this 52mm sized filter is not compatible with those lenses.
