Tiffen Digital Essentials Filter Kit - 37mm

The Tiffen Digital Essentials Filter Kit - 37mm includes a UV Protector, Circular Polarizer, Neutral Density 0.6, and a 4-pocket padded pouch to keep your filters clean, safe, and organized. This kit is ideal for outdoor photography. 

UV Protector

Protects your camera or camcorder lens against dust, moisture, fingerprints, scratches and damage. This filter can be kept on your camera at all times.

Features:

• Most popular protection filter
• Provides basic reduction of UV light
• Protects lens front element from dust, scratches, impact, etc.

Circular Polarizer 

Polarizers provide color and contrast enhancement. Reflected light often photographs as whitish glare that washes out color in an image. A Polarizer corrects this problem, producing deep, dramatically blue skies. It also removes glare from non-metallic surfaces, such as windows and water. Overall color saturation, especially outdoors, can be improved significantly.

Features: 

• Essential, general-use outdoor color filter
• Produces deeper skies and minimizes reflections in both black and white and color photography
• Can be rotated to achieve desired effect
• Use the Tiffen Circular Polarizer with an enhancing filter (not included) for more dramatic effects

NOTE: A Circular Polarizer has the same effect as a Standard Polarizer, but is designed for use on cameras with beam splitting metering systems commonly found on auto focus SLR's (for most 35mm auto-focus cameras see your camera manual). 

To determine the area of sky most effectively polarized with a Circular Polarizer, point your index finger at the sun. With your thumb extended at a right angle (90°), rotate it around the axis of the index finger. It will point out the band of deepest blue from horizon to horizon. 

Neutral Density Filter

Reduces the amount of light passing through the camera lens without changing the color of the scene.  The Neutral Density filter is especially useful in bright light conditions to help prevent overexposure.  It also allows proper exposure at a wider lens aperture for reduced depth-of-field, to highlight a key subject by making the foreground and/or background out of focus.

Features:

• Eliminates overly bright, washed-out images
• Balances exposure
• Controls depth-of-field
• Allows slower shutter speeds to produce blurred motion effects
