MARUMI

Marumi 58mm FSCPL Polarizing Camera Lens Filter 

Product description

The Marumi 58mm circular polarising filter is designed for digital cameras to reduce reflections and glare while enhancing colour saturation and contrast, especially in landscape photography.It is available in different series, including the DHG, DHG Super, and EXUS lines, each offering varying levels of coatings and features.

Product features

• Reflection Control: The primary function is to filter out light that has become polarised by reflecting off non-metallic surfaces like water or glass, resulting in clearer images.
• Color/Contrast Enhancement: It significantly increases the saturation of colours, making skies appear a deeper blue and foliage more vivid, while also reducing haze in distant landscapes.
• Digital Optimization: The filters are specifically developed for digital photography, featuring special coatings (like DHG) to prevent internal reflection off a camera’s CCD and CMOS sensors.
• Wide-Angle Compatibility: They often feature a thin, low-profile frame design to avoid vignetting (dark corners) when used with wide-angle lenses.
• Durable Coatings: Depending on the series, additional coatings are included.
  • DHG Super/EXUS: These lines offer hard protection against scratches and are both water- and oil-repellent, making them easy to clean of fingerprints and water spots.
• Adjustable Effect: The front element of the filter rotates, allowing the user to precisely adjust the intensity of the polarisation effect as seen through the viewfinder.
