Pros:It takes away only one stop, it removes very well the reflections on the windows, on the water, etc... Not vignette at the corners, does not create internal reflections of any kind,
Cons:Thread that does not lock well on the lens, tends to unscrew lightly yellowish shades on the whites does not create too saturated blue framing the sky
Opinion:In total a great product. It removes reflections optimally. A very transparent glass that lets a lot of light pass mounted on the lens. But I noticed that it gives a slight yellow/warm shade to some colors, especially whites, easily adjustable in post production. The sky doesn't make it as blue as other polarizers. It is necessary to tighten it firmly to fix it to the objective otherwise it unscrews a little at a time as it works, it is good practice to rotate it for adjustment in the direction of screwing to the objective. The frame that supports the lens is in aluminum. The glass has a treatment that does not emit reflections even holding it in your hand. In conclusion a good last generation polarizer.
Opinion:It would be a great polarizing filter if it would change the tone of colors according to the rotation of the ring. Essentially turning the ring to another smoothly and fluently, in addition to seeing the reflections disappear, changes as the colors that go from cool shades with skies so blue that it seems almost unreal as they are saturated in warm colors like we were almost at sunset at midday. I thing I find annoying, I happened to photograph a church in Paris with angles slightly divarse and meet up with the stone tending to CELESTINE in a photo and the other yellow. Nothing that can not be corrected in post production but it's still a hassle. I do not know if it's my that's bad because I did not hear anyone else complain of this problem. I also have a Hoya HD not smaller instead works perfectly. Bearing in mind that the diameter 77 HD costs much more than the PRO, not consiglio.rnrnPS: look at my photo of the Dolomites, the sky is cobalt blue without touching thesaturation, for the rocks instead I had NCREASE a lot 'saturation of orange for them as they were.
Pros:Superb quality, materials used, unaltered color rendering, value for money, really durable lens
Cons:Blister brings gentle filter, some removal difficulties if you have "big hands"
Opinion:Filter: Metal threaded ring, internal glass with protection against liquids and oils, orientable outer glass (being a cpl), solid dial to the touch. Optical yield: - in backlight conditions obviously you do not need a polarizer - water reflections (lakes etc) works well, very light warm shade - reflections on reflective surfaces (glass buildings, domestic, storefronts) I recommend it ultimately to anyone, Hoya then is always guarantee of quality made in Japan. A note for those who are "Sunday photographer", do not take the HD but the PRO1 is fine.
Cons:Not very easy to clean, removes one stop of light.
Opinion:I took a quality filter but did not want to spend too much because I use it on two goals from 100 euro each. I must say it was a good investment, good metal construction, the colors are transmitted live and saturated, does his duty without any problems, very good to remove the reflections from surfaces. Hoya says that is easy to clean, but cleaning it, some dust particles remain attached (minimum thing that has no effect on photos, but that's just my paranoia). The fluid ring, thin (7mm my 52mm in diameter), removes a stop actual light, which is not a problem when used in warm weather (his field), but for indoor photos can feel the difference. Note that the difference between HD and pro1 52mm is about ten euro..invece for the 77mm one costs almost half the other! I do not know whether the price is justified, but for a 77mm, amateur would take the pro1, then depends on the lens ... rnConsigliato.
