[QUOTE="cwgrizz, post: 546118, member: 27017"] I'll add my .02. I have a CPL on my 18-55, 99% of the time. It works well for most landscape/skyscape shots. There are a few quirks that you will find in using it. 1. it works best when at about a 90° angle with the sun. 2. On the wide end of the lens it can give some weird effects ie sky colors (light blue vs. dark blue spots). 3. Unless you are shooting in mainly one direction, the quick shots in many directions will not have the CPL adjusted for maximum effect. All of these are reasons that I usually only have it on the 18-55 which is more than likely used for the shots that can have some time to set things up. I have a CPL for the 70-300, but I usually don't have it on that lens because of the type of shots ie BIF from all directions and it is hard to change adjustments with the lens hood in place. The CPL has its place and is very useful when needed. [/QUOTE]
