How much cheaper is it that Tiffen's polarizer, or Cokin's or Hoya's? Mike Rehmus May 7th, 2004, 05:50 PM Because of the impact on your captured video, I think anything that goes on the front of the lens should be as good as you can afford (or maybe just a bit better). Water-clear glass, multi-coated, brass threads, etc., are all important to filter performance. I've had good Hoya and Tiffen filters but have finally settled on B+W as uniformly the best available for my use. Oh, I did buy a Sony kit for my PC110 that seems to be fairly good. Yohann Kouam May 7th, 2004, 05:55 PM 12 bucks for a sunpak pol filter, around 30 for a tiffen... Frank Granovski May 7th, 2004, 06:06 PM That's strange. The Tiffen, Cokin and Hoya polarizers are all under $30 bucks here. Canadian Bucks (.72 US.) Some places sell them for even cheaper. Have you checked with B&H? Yohann Kouam May 7th, 2004, 06:08 PM i'm talking 58mm here. Frank Granovski May 7th, 2004, 06:13 PM I was talking 52mm Nikkor size. :-)) |
