Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of the UV filter in this kit?
The Ultraviolet Protective Filter (UV) helps prevent loss of sharpness and contrast by filtering out UV rays and haze, while also protecting your lens against scratches, scuffs, and smudges.
How does the CPL filter improve photographs?
The Circular Polarizer Filter (CPL) allows for on-location control of color saturation, making blue skies bluer and green grass greener, and helps eliminate reflections from glass and water surfaces.
What is the primary use for the Warming filter?
The Warming filter enhances images by absorbing the blue cast often found in electronic flash or shaded conditions, adding natural-looking warmth to skin tones, and is ideal for wintry settings.
Can the FLD filter help with indoor lighting?
Yes, the Fluorescent Filter (FLD) effectively eliminates the fluorescent or 'greenish' tinge from your photographs, ensuring superior optical clarity and natural, true-to-life shots even in poor indoor conditions.
What kind of glass are these Polaroid filters made from?
Polaroid Optic Filters in this kit use pro-grade multi-coated glass, which provides unparalleled quality for your photographic needs.
How do I ensure these filters will fit my camera lens?
