Circular Polarizing Filter - IS this the right one for me?

JoshTPhoto · 5th of March 2007 (Mon)

Just wanted to make sure but is this a good circular polarizing filter for my Sigma 17-70? What is the difference between slim and non-slim.

That's a good one. Slim are for ultra-wide angle lenses; at 17 mm, your Sigma might possibly want a slim, but I'll leave that call for other owners of the 17-70.
