This basic 95 mm B+W MRC circular polarizing filter reduces reflections and glare by filtering light that has been polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. Sunlight is partially polarized naturally as it reflects off electrons in air molecules, causing it to scatter in what appears to be a haze. A polarizing filter organizes this directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing the absorption of much of this light.
This results in a noticeable reduction of glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces and an increase in the saturation of the sky and foliage. Objects and people behind surfaces such as shop windows and car windshields become visible again, a fascinating image enhancement without the need for post-production image processing.
The basic B+W MRC filters are equipped with the exclusive premium Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) nanocoating technology. This high-quality broadband coating is applied on both sides and enhances optical imaging properties, allowing for uniform and higher transmittance across the entire light spectrum, with minimal physically induced residual reflection.
The comprehensive nanoprotection of the filter glass also ensures increased scratch resistance, as well as extremely quick and easy cleaning for a long filter lifespan.
