The Tiffen 62mm 82A Light Balancing Filterhelps to increase the color temperature by 200K in order to cool the image slightly in order to match the color quality of illumination. When using an 82A filter, you will be able to attain 3200K balance when the prevailing light source is 3000K. The cooling effect of this filter requires a 0.3-stop increase in exposure for normal results.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and then mounting to precision metal rings.

Q: 1. Is this compatible with my Samyang 85mm Cine Lens?

A: Uhhh, if you can stretch the 72mm filter size to 85mm, then it would fit. Otherwise, no.

Q: 2. Will this fit a Nikon d3200 18-55mm lens

A: Nikon D3200 was bundle with the Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II Lens which has a 52mm filter thread size. You will need Tiffen 52mm Circular Polarizing Filter instead of the Tiffen 55mm Circular Polarizing Filter.

Q: 3. Does this work on a Rokinon 16mm f/2.0 lens?

A: This filter works with any lens that has a 77mm filter thread.

Q: 4. Will this work on the Canon - VIXIA HF R600 Full HD Camcorder?

A: As the Canon VIXIA HF R600 Full HD Camcorder has a 43mm filter thread on the front of the lens, yes, the Tiffen 43mm Circular Polarizing Filter would be compatible for use on the camcorder.

Q: 5. Is the front of this filter threaded so that another filter could be attached to the front of it?

A: Yes

Q: 6. I bought this polorizer a few months ago. However, I don't see much difference. Is is possible that I am not using it correctly?

A: The circular polarizer should be able to remove reflections and glare from non-reflective items regardless of the working conditions. The circular polarizer filter will not remove glare/reflections from metal or metallic items. If you are referring to darkening the blue color in the sky, is is most important to note that you get the most color deepening or contrast when the sun is set perpendicular (at a 90° angle) to the direction your lens is facing. This means that you should practically never use a polarizer facing directly toward the sun (the sun aimed at one of your shoulders is better). Also note that polarization may not be even across the entire frame, especially when you are using wide angle lenses. When using a wide angle lens, do note that you may view bands of polarization with strong blue sections and then lighter shades of blue in the sky. Another reason to take off the filter for shots that include the sun is that the extra glass can result in more flaring, so the polarizer may not be recommended for sunrise/sunset images.

Q: 7. Can the Tiffen Variable 77mm ND be screwed onto this?

A: yes

Q: 8. Will this work with the Canon RF 50mm 1.8?
