Features:Circular polarization filters from Carl Zeiss can minimize reflections on non-metallic shiny surfaces (e.g. water, glass, plastic, paint or leaves). Reflections are avoided, higher color saturation and richer contrast is achieved. Haze is eliminated in landscape photography, the sky is bluer and better color separation is enabled.The effectiveness of a polarization filter depends on the taking angle to the reflecting surface and the position of the filter. Therefore, POL filters are equipped with a screw mount. This allows configuration of the desired filter effect before taking a picture with an SLR camera. Visible light is reduced by 1.5 - 2 EV (filter factor 3-4) depending on the position of the filter on the screw mount. On all camera models, circular polarization filters ensure that TTL exposure metering and the autofocus function work properly regardless of the filter rotation.

Since I only use Zeiss Glass on my cameras, continuing the use of the Zeiss line only fit's my style. The T* polarizer filter matches the quality I bank on. THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE for Zeiss.FIVE STARS for Zeiss T*

I used this filter on an original Leica Q and it works very good, doesn't flare or create vignettes in my pictures.Quality is what you would expect from Zeiss which is a pretty high standard, metal construction, turns smoothly, high quality glass.

Even though this filter is very expensive, it is worth it to me. The build quality and operation are excellent. The polarizer ring turns very smoothly, and is a pleasure to use versus some the cheaper polarizing filters I have. The optical quality is also top notch. Basically an excellent product. It just comes down to if you want to pay a premium for it.

If you are spending around three thousand dollars on a lens and even more on a camera, then why cheap out on the filter you are using? I used this on my Fuji GFX 100s with the 23mm lens and I am happy with the images.
Solidly built. High quality glass. Effectively cuts haze, reflections, and glare. Works exactly as it should. I've owned a few other polarizer filters and this one by Zeiss is obviously a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.
Nice filter, but I experienced vignetting at all apertures when used with the Zeiss Milvus 15mm and Canon 5 DSR combination. Some corners were black or darkened while other corners were lighter with a purplish shade, making it very difficult to correct in Lightroom. Other than this issue, the filter is fine. Spins smoothly and does what a polarizer does. However, I returned to B&H who processed the return in a courteous and timely manner. B&H was a pleasure to work with. I'll try another filter with the store credit that I received for the return.
I've been using Zeiss Circular Polarizing filters for years ! No other choices or options are considered ! Zeiss is the best !
Excellent quality glass with smooth rotation. Perfect for cutting glare, increasing or decreasing reflections for window portraits as well as being perfect for bringing the blues in for landscapes. A cricular polarizer is a necessity for everything from portraiture to landscapes and from architectural to product photography. Zeiss has some of the best optics around!
After using both Hoya and B+W Polarizers, neither circular polarizer were thin enough to avoid the heavy dark banding you get. I have a Zeiss 25mm Distagon T* F/2 ZE (for Canon). So I decided to try the Zeiss filter and see what happened and sure enough, it was worth the extra money because the filter works perfect in every way! Besides, you've already spent a small fortune on the lens, so what's another few bucks on the right filter? It's kind of like joining hand and glove I guess. It adds another edge to beautiful pictures!
These Zeiss CPL filters are very well made, optically and mechanically. Rotation is smooth and the front thread is deep enough for e.g. Nikon front lens caps to grasp. In the meantime I have replaced all my B+W CPL filters by those Zeiss filters! Even the LEE lens adapters for the 100mm System fit perfectly onto the filter's front. Cleaning of those filter's glass surfaces is quite simple and effortless. All filters come in handy plastic containers except the 95mm version which comes in a soft pouch which is quite big and not to my liking.
