This 62mm MRC Basic Circular Polarizing Filter from B+W reduces reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. Light from the sun naturally becomes partially polarized due to reflecting off electrons in air molecules, causing it to scatter into what appears as haze. A polarizing filter arranges this directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light, allowing for the absorption of much of this light. This results in a noticeable reduction of glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces and an increase in the saturation of skies and foliage. Objects and people behind surfaces such as shop windows and car windshields become visible again, a fascinating image enhancement without the need for image processing in post production.

B+W MRC Basic filters are equipped with the exclusive Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) nano premium coating technology. This high-quality broadband coating is applied on both sides and enhances the optical imaging properties, allowing uniform and increased transmittance across the entire light spectrum to be achieved, with minimal physically induced remaining reflection. The nano all-round protection on the filter glass also ensures increased scratch resistance as well as extremely fast and easy cleaning for a long filter life.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this support variable widths? I need it to be exactly 7 feet wide. Thanks!

A: The poles will definitely go to that positionable width, however, you will have to purchase another cross bar section or go to Home Depot or Lowes and get a wooden pole cut to the 7 ft length. The whole system is really a great thing. I have three sets!

Q: 2. What is the maximum weight capacity? Can it hold three 140 paper rolls which are 40 lbs each?

A: The weight capacity of each pole is 55 lbs, when the weight is evenly distributed. That being said, this system is not strong enough to hold 3 rolls at 40 lbs each.

Q: 3. My ceiling has is slightly tilted. Will the top of the Varipoles work with a slightly tilted ceiling?

A: Unfortunately, the ceiling needs to be completely level in order to properly lock the Varipoles in place.

Q: 4. Is this a backdrop stand setup? Or do I need to connect this to a backdrop stand?

A: This setup is designed to work with backdrop paper rolls.

Q: 5. Can I buy just one pole?

A: Unfortunately, Impact does not sell the Impact Deluxe Varipole Support System - Black (Pair) as a single autopole unit; it is only sold in pairs. If you need a single autopole, a similar option from another manufacturer would be the Manfrotto Deluxe Autopole 2 (Black, 6.8-12.1'), B&H # MA43237B. https://bhpho.to/3VFoiRN

Q: 6. What is the difference between this system and the Manfrotto system?

A: The differences between this background support and the Manfrotto 2961D has to do with the locking mechanism on each pole. The Manfrotto Deluxe Autopole would unlock by pulling the handle downward then pulling it towards you. With the Impact Varipole, you have the same control but with an added lock around the handle for extra security. Otherwise they offer similar height and weight, with the Impact Varipole being more budget friendly.

Q: 7. what is the diameter for the poles?

A: The base of the poles is 45mm while the riser section is 40mm.

Q: 8. Could I mount a lightweight mirrorless camera to the crossbar with a superclamp, or would the system not be stable enough?

A: You could mount a mirrorless camera with a Super Clamp to the crossbar of this system, since it is rated to hold up to 55 lbs.

Q: 9. Can this be used with out the chain?

A: Yes the drives can be used without the chains if there isn't a need to bring the rolls up or down frequently.

Q: 10. does the Kupo Kupole Tripod Base work with this system?

A: The Kupo Kupole Tripod Base B&H # KUKD200412 MFR # KD200412 will not work with The Impact Basic Varipole Support System B&H # IMVP712SPK MFR # BGSS-VKBS. Not only will the Autopole not fit in the Kupo base, the base is not needed. Autopoles are designed to be self-contained. This Varipole Support System is a telescopic freestanding pole, secured between floor and ceiling with a simple lever movement. Nothing else is needed.
