[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 741194, member: 1061"] A CPL filter will reduce incoming light by about 1-2 stops. For photos in a dimly lit place like a museum, you're probably not going to like the results, especially when using a lens that doesn't open very wide. These filters are typically used for landscapes to reduce reflections from water, darkening the sky or long exposures. Should also note that a CPL [I]reduces[/I] reflections, it typically doesn't [I]eliminate[/I] them. The reduction on a linear glass surface is going to be minimal. [/QUOTE]
