Review: Quality of the filter and the Truth about Potential counterfeits - [State of counterfeits in December 2021 and how to completely avoid them] _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This is an extremely high quality, Brass filter. All version of it are Brass. Using it for the past few days I have seen Zero issues with image sharpness at all, vignetting or distortion. Its heavy, Solid and extremely smooth to turn. However, I have noticed that when using this on a step up ring (52mm lens to 58mm filter) the step up ring makes it slightly harder to turn at specific points. However, that probably say more about the step up ring than this filter. The F-Pro version reduces about 1 and 1/3rd stops of light. So you can use this as a 1 stop ND filter too. Other than that the color is amazing, Polarization is amazing and I am extremely happy I paid premium for this over a $20 filter. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ When it comes to counterfeits. I'd like to point something out for those who are worried. If you look at all the reviews submitted through desertcart concerning B+W Counterfeit filters. All of them. And I mean all of them going back almost a decade, are Always related to the XS-PRO (Slim Mount) version. Not the F-Pro version. If you are looking to avoid counterfeit B+W filters on desertcart get the F-Pro version. There are no documented cases of counterfeit F-Pro. B+W also has an authenticity checker on their website. Google "Schneider Kreuznach authenticity check". Keep in mind the country you bought the filter from desertcart on for the authenticity check country. If you purchased from .De desertcart, select Germany. If you purchased from .co.uk select UK. If you purchased from desertcart US select US etc. You won't regret spending money on a quality filter like this.
Review: Best photography accessory I have purchased to date - Worth every single penny I paid for it. Be careful that you get the Nano coated version. The normal MRC model is available for the same price; fortunately desertcart let me cancel my order easily. Rotating this polarizer against an LCD monitor completely blacked it out (so long as you are looking through it like the camera would), so I know that the polarization is excellent. I took pictures of sky and glass and played with the effects. I'd have to say this is the best accessory I've purchased, aside from the camera and lenses themselves. As you would expect from a polarizer, it boosts contrast (like good polarized sunglasses), and lets you select which reflections you want to see and hide. The latter means that you can see inside glass windows that would normally be opaque due to reflections. No vignetting on my Nikon D7100 with 10-24mm DX lens. Standard Nikon pinch caps fit securely, although they do come off with less squeeze than I use with my protective Hoya UV filter. Still secure enough that I'm not worried about it. I have not tried stacking filters.

## Features

- A MUST-HAVE – Whether you’re indoors or outdoors, the right polarizing filter is a must for every photography equipment. No other filter provides such a simple and fast method for breathtaking pictures through reduced reflections on water and smooth non-metallic surfaces. Enjoy richer colors in landscape photography, outlining clouds, skies, and skylines in perfect clarity.
- EASY TO USE CAMERA FILTER - The Käsemann polarization filter can easily be screwed onto the filter thread of most lenses. Thanks to its special design, the adjustment ring can then be rotated on the filter without resistance in order to improve your images in the simplest possible way. You see an immediate result through the camera viewfinder, or on the display. Adjust the effect strength as desired.
- BEST WORKMANSHIP - The High Transmission (HTC) polarization film is set between two precise ground and polished cover glasses. It is particularly neutral in color and of high quality, providing for much sharper and richer images than conventional polarizing filters. The MRC glass has been refined with several wafer-thin layers of coating to ensure high scratch resistance and a dirt- and water-repellent effect due to nanotechnology (lotus effect).
- TOUGH & SOLID MOUNTS - B+W sockets are absolutely accurate, easy to apply, and easy to adjust as polarizing filters thanks to their precision manufacturing. With an extra narrow XS-PRO mount, vignettes can be ruled out in most cases, even at high wide-angle angles. Due to the internal thread, a conventional lens hood can also be fitted so you can take better pictures.
- MADE IN GERMANY - Schneider Kreuznach (B + W) – We’re proudly your precision mechanics specialists for filters, photography, optics and precision, with more than 100 years of German experience. Schneider products have already been used in NASA's Apollo missions. Thanks to our multi-resistant nano coating lens filter, we’re helping photographers everywhere take clearer, crisper images.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for fish photos! High quality filter.
*by T***1 on April 17, 2019*

I bought this filter to take photos of fish in our trout pond. It is amazing for that purpose. The afternoon I received this was full of glare and reflections. Without looking through the camera I couldn’t see a fish. But with it on and rotated properly I was able to get great photos. The dark photo on the left was with the filter rotated to allow glare. And on the right with glare minimized. I was able to get amazing photos of the trout feeding. I can’t believe I waited this long to have one of these! My Smith sunglasses also allowed me to see these fish and that is what tipped me off that I was missing a lot in my photos. Using this filter is way easier than trying to shoot through my sunglasses. Seems to work well with my Canon 80D autofocus and auto exposure. Schneider no longer supports the counterfeit protection website that links to the box hologram label, but this seems obviously legit from the research I did as to what to look for.
