The rear lens filter is great for the super wide lenses. The image is using the clear night filter aiming toward the sun then away from at noontime raw saved as jpeg out of camera with no editing. Years ago using a E 1018mm f/4 OSS lens at 12mm using a CPL I learned the problem with the dark center using a front CPL, so another reason for using a rear filter when using ultra wide lenses if out with a blue sky for a single capture or even doing a pano you can not use a CPL filter. I have not tested against milky waterfalls or reflection off glass/water. A thing I found out by mistake or leaving a clear night filter in its mount while on recon trip during daytime with my Sony 12-24mm lens (requires an expensive front filter holder) for some Milky Way captures that night is the fact that filters at the rear of the lens are not affected by the 90 degree rule and the Clear Night filter gives a wonderful baby blue sky with perfect white clouds and beach tan sand even shooting directly into the sun. You get a 3,4,6 and 10 stop and if so inclined the Clear Night filter used for night Astro Milky Way capture that cleans up colors in multi color places. The rear holder of filters comes with four filters and you can also just get additional holders by themselves so as not to have a bunch of them. Something to add is the filters at the rear of the lens by Haida for most all Camera makers lenses. Many times, my best results come from mildly overcast light, where enabling the polarizer cuts out a lot of reflections within the foliage of my scene (the first example in this article is overcast light).Īll very common sense, just remember the 90 degree rule. This does not imply that you need direction light on your scene for a polarizer to function, though. Thankfully, sunrise and sunset also tend to mean far less harsh light, so your polarizer isn't as critical. I find this occurs most often closer to sunrise and sunset because the angle of the sun is lower on the horizon. This is the case because polarizers essentially cut out reflected and refracted light at specific angles. The origin of the word landscape comes from Germanic languages. But if you’re ever shooting in the direction of the sun, you won’t be able to cut out as many reflections. Typically, if your scene is facing away from the sun, you’ll have great results.
Something to keep in mind when using a polarizer is that it will have varying results depending on how you position yourself between your subject and the sun. Many times, this is helpful for photographing waterfalls, as I want a shutter speed between 1/5th of a second to half a second, but it might not be in other scenarios where you’re trying to capture as much light as you possibly can.
Polarizers typically also act as a 1-stop ND filter, meaning they’ll bring your exposure down by a single stop. An example of a polarizer blocking one stop of light
