Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of HOYA 72mm Circular Polarizing Filter
Customer Review: Misleading Ad
Summary: 2 Stars
You may not receive what you think you ordered - I didn't. The picture that accompanies this item says "Super" on the side of the filter ring. Hoya filters marked "Super" are multi-coated. The filter I received did not say "Super" on the ring and it has no coatings. This is a plain glass filter without any AR coating on any of the four surfaces. It turns out the picture is obsolete - Hoya no longer makes a filter marked "Super" but they do have several varieties of coated filters, this just isn't one of them. Like any four surface uncoated filter, this filter has around 80% transmission vs. 98% for a well coated filter, and is prone to adding ghosting when aimed near the sun (unlike coated filters). Polarization characteristics are excellent however. Build quality is marginal - the filter I received was made in the Philippines, the good Hoyas come from Japan. Hoya makes great filters (most of the time)- but the reason most of us are willing to spend the money on a Hoya is because of the great coatings - there is not much point in buying an uncoated Hoya. Best Buy sells an uncoated 72mm circular polarizer for $15 - I suspect its just as good. Spend the $100 for a Hoya HMC or go to Best Buy and live with the light loss and added reflections.
