Marumi 55mm Exus Circular Polarizer Filter

OVERVIEW

The EXUS Circular Polarizer dramatically enhances color contrast purity and saturation by suppressing the subject's surface reflection. By providing exceptional light transmission, the EXUS Circular Polarizer makes colors in the viewfinder appear brighter with more contrast, allowing for easier viewing and faster more accurate auto-focus. The unique new EXUS antistatic Multi -Coating protects the lens from static clinging of dust and pollutants, while allowing easy cleaning of water spots and fingerprints, making EXUS Circular Polarizers especially useful for shooting outdoors. This essential filter is great when shooting landscapes and scenery for both digital and film cameras.

High Transmission Polarizer

The EXUS Circular Polarizer transmits 30% more light than conventional polarizers. This allows for easier viewing in the finder as colors are brighter and more intense, while shadows appear darker and with better gradation. With better light transmission the user will also see the improved auto-focus speed and accuracy while using this filter.

Water and Oil Repellent

The surface of the filter lens is specially coated to repel water and oil excellently. The surface itself minimizes the chances of water spots and provides resistance to fingerprints that can appear on the surface.

Anti-Static Coating

Even if the lens gets dirty, dust can be easily removed using an air-blower with the antistatic coating that inhibits static clinging to the filter even from a microscopic level.

When looking at the sample test above, is prepper by having the glass surface cleaned with a cloth to generate the electrostatic charge and then dipped into the Styrofoam pile. You can see that the EXUS Circular Polarizer excels as it does not pick up any of the Styrofoam balls while the conventional circular polarizer certainly does.

Ultra-Low Reflection Rate

Due to the entire outer rim of the lens being treated with black-ink and a special frame structure, the filter achieves ultra-low reflection of less than 0.6%. With the suppression of surface reflection the filter allow the camera lens to perform to its maximum, achieving high-quality content.
