[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 566349, member: 24285"] Variation on Learn First - Buy Once - I bought this at 82 for my 24-70 for landscape shots - had limited success on my first efforts. Viewed a review [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMOsBG2JaZY[/URL] Where 'back country photographer" Steve Perry offers his ideas on using a CPL - and one of his recommendations is that they are not great on wide lenses - when you have sky in the shot. No sky - no problem. And he hit the nail on the head of he problem I encountered this a.m. - don't use it if stitching a panorama "it wreaks havoc" - and it did. Hmmm. I could try with the 24-70 set to something over 40mm (he said not under 35mm) or just take it off. I also packed my 17-35mm old Tammy to try to get the shot without stitching. Will see. Had I known all of this would I still have dropped $149 on that Hoya? Maybe. Or not. [/QUOTE]
