The Ice Magco 77mm Circular Polarizer Magnetic Filterfrom Ice Magco 77mm Circular Polarizer Magnetic Filterreduces glare from highly reflective surfaces, like polished metal, glass, and water surfaces. It also increases the saturation of the sky for greater color separation when shooting landscapes. The filter's 16-layer multicoating increases light transmission for increased tonal separation, while preventing internal lens flare. The hardened, easy clean topcoat resistance coating repels water, oil, dust, and fingerprints and provides a toughened scratch-resistant surface well suited for use in harsh environments.

The included 77mm magnetic adapter ring is an aluminum ring that screws on to the filter threads of a lens, allowing the filter to be quickly attached or removed. The polarizer rotates freely on the ring for proper positioning, and up to four magnetic filters can be stacked at a time. The ultra-slim design is compatible with extreme wide-angle lenses, and the adapter ring features front threading that allows the original lens cap to be used for protection without removing the ring.

ICE Magco magnetic filters are fully compatible and interchangeable with Kase, Haida, and Marumi magnetic filters.

Q: 1. 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: 2. 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.

Q: 3. Does the rear ring ever bind or cross-thread?

A: PolarPro 77mm QuartzLine Circular Polarizer Filter is made of Brass and well built. It will not bend / cross thread under normal circumstances.

Q: 4. Hi everyone, besides of the fact that this filter makes your pictures pop, does it also protect the lens as well? (The lens I have is the Zeiss Batis 25mm f/2 with Sony A6000) Thank you.

A: Yes it does protect. Excellent alternative if you don't mined the light reduction

Q: 5. The first photo of this item shows a rectangular filter, but the description says circular. Which shape is it?

A: The Ice 84 x 98mm P Series Circular Polarizer Filter is a rectangular shape but the effect is called circular polarizer.

Q: 6. For this 52mm filter--is the front thread diameter also 52mm? Thanks!

A: The front thread is 52mm.

Q: 7. Does it make sense to (can you ) add the Natural Density on top of this filter?

A: You can stack the filters. the polarizer should be on top. Keep in mind that the polarzer alone is about 2stop ND in addition to the unique properties it has to darken Sky, highlight Cloudes and reducing glare and reflection off glass, water and metal surfaces.

Q: 8. Will this filter fit with the Sony 70-200 GM Hood?

A: Yes, you will be able to attach a filter with the lens hood on.

Q: 9. Is this a circular polarizer? Are there any pics of it?

A: Yes, it is a circular polarizer. The first photo, is a direct photo of the filter.

Q: 10. Can you use the lens hood on a Nikkor Z 24-70mm f2.8 S lens with this CP filter?

A: You can use them together but it will be difficult to adjust the polarizer.
