[QUOTE="Mike D90, post: 311789, member: 17556"] I am no expert at filters. I rarely use them. Polarizers are mainly for use where harsh direct bright sunlight is reflected onto your lens . . . I think. Someone else will probably chime in with a much better explanation. As to my knowledge about all you can do is the best you can. If a subject is in complete shade and you are standing/shooting from direct bright sunlight into the shade, and you cannot use flash or reflectors, you have to meter for the subject which means over exposing. Anything not in shade will be blown out/washed out. However, where you will be may not include completely shaded areas as trees tend to be thin canopy in safari settings. You might hit up Scott Murray here as he has been on some African style shoots I think and he lives in Australia where the setting may be similar. [/QUOTE]
