T* Circular Polarizing Filter from Carl Zeiss is designed to the same high standards as their world famous and time honored camera lenses.  The high standards of a Carl Zeiss filter are meant to complement their world famous and time honored line of camera lenses.  The T* multi-coating of this filter is designed to both minimize reflections at the filter's surface as well as improve its light transmission capability.  However, do not believe that you must only use this excellent filter on a Zeiss lens.  It will fit and do great service to any lens it is screwed on to.

Light rays which are reflected become polarized.  Polarizing filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens.  They can remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass and also saturate colors providing better contrast.  The effect 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.

If you're out walking on a lovely day - in the mountains or at the beach - and you want to get a fabulous shot of a cloud-filled sky or make the water seem more saturated, then a polarizer is the way to go.  This filter is the best way to make the clouds stand out, increase or decrease the saturation of the ocean or increase or decrease the reflection off the water.  You can also use this filter when shooting into glass or windows since it will, again, either increase or decrease reflections.

If you're shooting black and white and want to simulate a threatening storm, try throwing on a #25 Red filter.  The vista will take on the appearance of an imminent, ominous storm.

Along with a UV or Skylight Filter, a polarizing filter should be a part of everyone's gear bag.  It can turn a run-of-the-mill image into a stunning, creative photo by increasing color saturation.

Note!  Circular polarizers are specifically designed for use with auto-focus SLR cameras (They will also work on manual systems without problems)

This filter eliminates ultraviolet rays from outdoor shots as well as polarizing the light to remove reflections, and increase color saturation, without affecting the overall color balance
