[QUOTE="KWJams, post: 20722, member: 1926"] That is what I ended up figuring out. I have a CPL for my 200mm and the pictures are always crisp and well focused zoomed in or out but the 300mm loses a lot of contrast and the focus looks muddy. The 200mm CPL was bought at a big box tech retail store and the 300mm CPL came cheap on eBay. Polarized filters work by filtering light horizontally and by turning the outer ring less light is filtered the way I understand. So is the 300mm not a good lens to use a CPL since the glass is larger --- or is the filter I bought on eBay just pretty colored glass? [/QUOTE]
