[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 423643, member: 13090"] I use a CPL most all of the time and I've owned several. My favorites are the [url=http://www.amazon.com/Hoya-Hardened-Multi-Coated-Circular-Polarizing/dp/B001G7PMGS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1425412174&sr=8-3&keywords=77mm+polarizing+filter+hoya]Hoya HD CPL's[/url]. The glass used in the HD line is harder than most and the HD's transmit more light: You only lose about a stop-and-a-quarter with the HD's whereas with most other CPL's you'll lose two-full stops, or thereabouts. The HD's also clean up really, really easily and they're reasonably priced. If you want to use a step-up rings you would buy the largest size filter that will fit one of your lenses, say 77mm. The rings then let you use the larger filter on smaller lens (for instance a 77mm filter on a 67mm lens); not the other way around. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
