I have a canon 300D. I am wondering if it would help me on my day shots to have a polarizer. I going to Disney next week and would like to take good pics. Will this help??

It will reduce glare from non-metallic surfaces, including moisture on foilage and make your skies a darker blue. It will make a good picture better under those conditions.

Search for threads with the word "polarizer" in the title. You will find many, including this one that's been running for the last two days.

yeah get one and play with it when you're there! You'll be glad you did.
The nearer you shoot to 90% to the sun, the more saturated your colours will appear.
It's also good to take pics of peole with glasses to lessen te reflections in their glasses, if you get the angle right

Simon, you obviously meant to type 90degrees.

It's a good point about the spectacle wearers as well.
