This has nothing to do with Pentax, but I reckon there are some experts here
might be able to tell the differences. I did 2 shots this afternoon with
identical setting just to see if there was any colour difference between
HOYA & B+W CPL. I turned the filters until they gave the deepest blue colour
possible. These shots were done with the Canon A80 because I do not have the
*ist D. Now called me naive, but I compared these 2 shots side by side at
100% in Photoshop, and while there is some very slight colour difference
(could be due to the lack of precise angle of the CPLs), I would not be able
to determine which is better and found them equally good on my monitors.
Some comments I received from other forum suggested the HOYA one was
slightly "fogged", while another said he would buy B+W. What am I missing?
Why cannot I see the difference? I could "faked" their titles and tricked
people to believe the HOYA was B+W, and like vise, but I did not. I want
some honest opinion here. Anyone?
