Overview

The Canon PL-C polarizing filter enhances picture quality by blocking harmful reflected light. Use it to reduce polarized light reflections from glass and water surfaces or to improve color saturation. These effects can be seen through the viewfinder and changed by rotating the filter. The filter factor varies according to how the filter is rotated and its orientation to the sun. Filter factor is between 2.3 and 2.8 (approximately 1.3 stops).

This 52mm drop-in circular polarizing filter is specifically for the following IS (image stabilizer) super telephoto lens series: EF 300/2.8L IS USM, EF 400/2.8L IS USM, EF 500/4L IS USM and EF 600/4L IS USM. It can be rotated from the outside without removing it from the lens for precise control.

Detailed Specifications
Filter Type:	Circular Polarizing
Filter Type: The type of filter for a lens. Filters can be screwed on the front element or dropped in for larger zoom lens. View All Attribute Definitions
Multi-Coated:	No
Multi-Coated: A series of optical coatings that are on a lens/filter that help reduce the impact of reflections. The result is a higher transmission percentage of light. All modern lenses are multi-coated. View All Attribute Definitions
Filter Construction:	ColorCore Glass
Filter Construction: This is the construction of a type of filter. The type of process used to create a filter can affect its price. Filters can be constructed out of regular glass that sandwiches a coloured gel in between or in high-end filters, raw elements are added to the molten optical glass so there is no risk of uneven colour or fading.

Rotating: Allows a rotating or pivoting action for a device such as a flash or lcd screen. View All Attribute Definitions
Filter Effect:	Removes reflections and increases color saturation without affecting the overall color balance

Front Lens Cap Size:	52mm
Front Lens Cap Size: This is the size of a front lens cap. Standard sizes for snap-on lens caps include: 27mm, 28mm, 30mm, 34mm, 37mm, 39mm, 40.5mm, 43mm, 46mm, 49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, 82mm and 86mm. View All Attribute Definitions
Filter Factor:	Between 2.3 and 2.8 (approx. +1.3 stops)
Filter Factor: When placed in the optical path, many filters block a certain amount of light from reaching the lens. Filter factor relates to how much exposure compensation is required in order to adjust for this. Most cameras have TTL metering and will be able to do this automatically.
