Tiffen 138mm Mounted Warm Linear Polarizer Filter
- Product Code: ga4512
-
The Tiffen 138mm Mounted Warm Linear Polarizer Filter can be applied to create a warm cast over an entire image while helping to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. The light from the sun naturally becomes partially polarized due to reflecting off electrons in air molecules, causing the light to scatter into what appears as haze. A polarizing filter arranges, and filters, 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.
The warming effect of this filter can be obtained under daylight when this filter is used on a film camera system with daylight film installed, or on a digital camera system with its daylight white balance setting selected. This filter's overall coloration reflects a mired shift value of +45.
A linear polarizer differs from a circular polarizer in that it does not contain an additional quarter wave plane. The addition of a quarter wave plane is to circularly polarize linearly polarized light for the use of auto focus and exposure functions. Due to how the light is broken down and filtered with a linear polarizer, in-camera auto focus and exposure accuracy become skewed during use. When the light becomes circularly polarized, it permits the use of these functions.
This filter is recommended when not using in-camera exposure metering or autofocus, is non-coated, and has approximately 40% average light transmission. Constructed from optical glass for clarity as well as color fidelity, it is mounted for use in third-party or custom filter holders. No front or rear threads are included on this filter's ring, or mount.

A: This has 1 slot with no color shift.
Q: 2. What size lens cap fit this filter?
A: A 48mm lens cap will fit this filter.
Q: 3. I have a Nikon Coolpix L340. I am aware that it's lens is 35mm. Is this polarizer applicable to that particular camera?
A: The Nikon COOLPIX L340 digital camera does not have filter threads on the lens. So you cannot use any filters on this camera.
Q: 4. Does this add 1 stop to the image?
A: It reduces light transmission by 1.5 stops.
Q: 5. Compatible with https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1583634-REG/bright_tangerine_b1251_1045_one_tray_for_the.html ?

Q: 6. Does the ND/Pol filter push the Mavic Mini over the weight limit of 250kg?
A: The DJI Mavic Mini weighs in at 249g. So yes it will be just over,
Q: 7. With a mirrorless Micro-4/3rds camera, do you need to use a circular polarizer? Or will a linear one be effective?
A: Circular polarizer filters are recommended for use if you will be using autofocus to focus your lens, as linearly-polarized light can confuse autofocus sensors and cause autofocus errors. However, if you will be focusing your lens manually, you may use a linear polarizing filter.
Q: 8. What size is this filter inside of the pouch?
A: The polarizing filter in the Lindsey Optics 138mm Brilliant Rota-Pol Circular Polarizer for 4 x 5.65" Cine Matte Boxes is 138mm diameter.
