I used to work with an old polarizer on my camcorder, but since I will have a a new camcorder I need a new polarizer. i have never known that for a 58 thread you can buy at least a dozen different B + W circular polarizers. Can somebody suggest me something? I have no idea what to choose. I almost always shoot nature in daylight situation. So it is mainly to reduce leaf reflections and have nice skies.

Take this assortment as an example: B+W 58mm Circ. Polarisatie, online bestellen bij de GROOTSTE kamerawinkel van Nederland! (http://www.kamera-express.nl/index.php?page=subsubtypes&subsubtype=3404&action=addtocart&product=8991)

I'll let you search it for nuggets, I went cross - eyed after 30 seconds!

I've been using the Circular polarizers, from my still photography film cameras on my video camera.
Saying that shows how old they are.

I do alot of nature/outdoor video, with them on, and it didn't matter which one of my old, less technologically advanced filters I used, the video looks good.
You just have to use it correctly.
