Hoya HD CPL vs B+W Slim KSM MRC CPL?

[sinned79]

Im quoted $150 for a 67mm Hoya HD CPL...issit reasonable? i find it very hard to trust the salesperson.. they simply just jeck up the price based on individual

dun walk in, usually get carrot chop.

left should be CPL right is UV?

Both are CPL

Left 1 is the Kenko Pro1D, which I, was informed by J3:16, to have better light transmission as compared to "normal-grade" polariser. This seems to match the feedback of another forummer here somewhere.

and then the right one is the new Hoya HD CPL

Haha...day of coincidences;

Which is the RIGHT one that I'm selling off....

P.S. I dunno what the wideband term stands for, anyway.

Did you notice the link in sinned79's posting? Read and make your own decision.

All I can tell you is that Hoya HD filter are premium quality. Thin, tough, bright glass and simply no coating spots.

The high price commands the build quality. For example Nikon CPL's very thin ring turns smoothly and is light. Unless you require the build, then go for the normal series.

If you are willing to spend for experience, then buy different type for each lens.

I don't know which to buy now, Hoya HD or Nikon or B+W F-pro mount CPLs. They say Hoya HD have problem of ring detaches and falls apart. Is this for real???
