An effect you cannot fully recreate in post

A polarizing filter changes the light before it reaches the camera. It can remove reflections that hide details behind glass or below the surface of water.

In landscapes it can also reduce glare from leaves and other surfaces, making colors appear richer and, with the right angle to the light, giving the sky stronger contrast.

Smooth polarization adjustment

The strength of the effect is adjusted byrotating the filter in the magnetic mount.

This makes it easy to fine-tune polarization for each shot without removing the filter – especially useful during fast-paced production.

Water, glass and glossy surfaces

A CPL is useful whenever reflections prevent the camera from showing the scene clearly.

• shooting through glass and shop windows
• water and wet surfaces
• landscape photography and filmmaking
• cars and painted surfaces
• product and advertising work
• foliage where glare can mute natural color

MMS – fast filter changes on set

TheMagnetic Mount Systemremoves the need to screw the filter into a thread. The magnetic connection lets you attach, remove or swap the CPL for another MMS filter quickly.

This is particularly useful on set when lighting conditions or shot requirements change from one take to the next.

Super Resistant glass

TheSR – Super Resistantconstruction uses toughened optical glass for increased mechanical resistance.

Alongside its optical function, the filter can provide an additional physical layer of protection for the front element during shooting and transport.

Anti-reflective and Nano coatings on both sides

Multi-layer anti-reflective coatings on both glass surfaces help preserve sharpness, clarity and contrast.

A Nano coating on both sides helps repel dirt and makes the filter easier to clean during intensive production use.

Combine the CPL with other MMS filters

The system supportsmagnetic stacking of MMS filters. When you need polarization and exposure reduction together, the CPL can be combined with a compatible MMS ND filter.

This lets you build the right filteration setup for a shot without conventional screw-in filter stacks.

Threadless 5 mm profile

The threadless construction keeps the filter very slim.Total thickness is 5 mm.

That compact profile is useful when storing several MMS filters and when keeping a cinema rig as compact as possible.

For Irix Cine lenses with MMS

The filter is designed forIrix Cine lenses equipped with the Magnetic Mount System.

MMS makes compatible filter changes fast without repeatedly threading filters onto the lens.
