Filter out polarized light and saturate the skies and foliage in your pictures with the PowerCPL 86mm Gorilla Glass Circular Polarizer Filter from Aurora-Aperture. This 86mm circular polarizer filter is notably durable while still retaining excellent image quality.

The ability of this PowerCPL to filter out polarized light makes it useful for achieving effects that are difficult to achieve in post-production. It saturates vegetation and makes skies look more blue while reducing reflection from non-metallic surfaces such as water and glass.

What sets this product apart from other polarizing filters is its material. The Gorilla Glass construction makes this filter far tougher than ones made of regular glass. It is resistant to scratching and shattering, making it ideal for use with high-end gear in risky situations.

Other features of this filter include a multi-layer coating with nanotechnology for reducing flares and ghosts, and repelling water, oil, and dust. Through polishing and quality control tests, this filter achieves accurate color reproduction and a high resolution. An anodized aluminum frame with a 5.3mm thickness makes this filter easy to remove from the lens while keeping vignetting to a minimum. A wide-temperature-range lubricant is applied to the filter for smooth and dampened rotation regardless of temperature.

Q: 1. Is this compatible with Thinkware X1000?

A: Yes, the Thinkware TWA-CPL Circular Polarizer Filter, B&H # THACPL, is compatible with the Thinkware X1000.

Q: 2. Is it OK to install on a lens already has the T* coating? What's going to happen if you double the T* coating?

A: Yes, it's fine. It would only be problematic if the T* coating itself had a distinct color cast, in which case the white balance would need adjusting. However, the coating itself improves light transmission pretty evenly across the spectrum, so you'll only notice the normal color cast of the polarizing layers -- which is pretty neutral on the Zeiss. I think only the Breakthrough Photography polarizers are (or may!) be more neutral.

Q: 3. How scratch resistant is this? -- Im also considering the Hoya HD3 as it multi-coating claims to help with scratch resistance

A: The ZEISS 82mm Carl ZEISS T* Circular Polarizer Filter features a world class coating, that is very scratch resistant. The advantage to the Hoya HD3, is it's anti-static capability. If one is working in a location with constant sand flying around the HD3 would be a good choice.

Q: 4. Do these filters work on both the EF-L and the SA-L version of the MC-21 converter?

A: The Aurora-Aperture Adapter Mount Format PowerND 3.6 Filter for Sigma MC-21 Lens Mount Adapter (12-Stop) is compatible with the Sigma MC-21 Mount Converter/Lens Adapter (Sigma EF-Mount Lenses to L-Mount Camera) and the Sigma MC-21 Mount Converter/Lens Adapter (Sigma SA-Mount Lenses to L-Mount Camera).

Q: 5. Is there a way to use this filter with the HITECH HT85AMH filter holder.? What accessory pieces do I need to adapt the holder for this filter?

A: You need to adjust the thickness of one slot to match this filter, then it will slide in the same as a rectangular filter.

Q: 6. Is this compatible with the 24mm Gmaster 1.4 lens?

A: The Aurora-Aperture 67mm Power XND Mark II Variable ND 1.5 to 3.3 Filter (5 to 11-Stop) will attach and work with any 67mm filter thread lens including the Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 GM Lens.

Q: 7. Does this filter sit in-between the sensor and the adapter, or in-between the adapter and the lens?

A: This filter will mount inside the adapter. It slides into the opening in the adapter.

Q: 8. Will the adapter work on the tamron 15-30 g2?

A: This Aurora-Aperture PowerND CR Filter Kit replaces the original plastic rear gel filter holder that comes with a lens. Because the Tamron 15-30mm G2 lens does not feature a rear filter holder this Aurora kit will not work on it.

Q: 9. Is it available for Canon EF 14mm F2.8L II USM??

A: Yes it is.

Q: 10. Will this work on the canon 24-70 rf f/2.8 L usm lens?

A: As the Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens has 82mm front filter threads, yes, the ZEISS 82mm Carl ZEISS T* Circular Polarizer Filter would be compatible for use on the Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens.
