Polarizer / UV filters

[Sendide]

Hi dear friends,
for landscape shooting, I've been reading in a recent thread that a circular polarizer helps a lot in getting a warm blue sky. I've also been told that UV filter is good to avoid some flare /aberations !! should we keep both on the lens for landscape ? if so, is there any order priority?
sorry of these Questions are .... well :oops:
thanks in advance

Nope. I would not stack filters. I would just decide which one I want to use and put the other one back in my bag.

If you want to accentuate a blue sky or reduce glare reflecting off water, use the CPL. Otherwise use the UV filter to protect your front lens element. Stacking filters increases the chances of vignetting.

More filters stacked means ticker galss and less light will come in to the camera may have to adjust the Exposure them, which needs a fast lens

mhhh!!
does it mean then that CPF decreases the light entering the lens? that changes a lot even if you want to compare with or without filter.

CP filters definitely reduce the light. But, that's why God invented IS, monopods and tripods. ;)

and created fast lenses as well, right :wink:
