If you're shooting outdoors, it can be very handy to have a polarizer. Not that
the polarizer won't work as well to bring out the clouds shooting either

I.e. late afternoon, west and east wont work as well as north and south.
I'd recommend getting one and playing with it. Here are some shots from my
doing just that:

Quite a difference in the shots of the tree especially.
I just bought a p3n that came with an a 50/2 lens with a Skylight 1A filter on
it. Is that a polarizer?
No a skylight is a skylight, a Polarizer is a Polarizer.
I already had a UV[O] and PL filter. In the now distant past I knew what they
were for. Are they both polarizers?
