I'd rather have a neutral circular polariser and apply warming in post-processing (if you shoot RAW it's extremely easy to apply - slide the white balance a little way towards a lower, warmer, number).

Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1]  More info | Jan 17, 2007 09:10 | #3 A cheap filter might transmit 93% of the light. The other 7% bounces off the air-glass interface. Bouncing light contributes to flare, unwanted reflections in the shot, and loss of contrast. Any filter that is uncoated will degrade your image so much that it might as well be useless! You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost!

You may have to experiment to get a setting you'll like but it will work. Jon

You may have to experiment to get a setting you'll like but it will work. Surely it's a slightly lower colour temperature that you dial in. Cooler light is, counter-intuitively, a high colour temperature, where as warmer, yellower light is a lower colour temperature.

It's confusing, I know. Try setting your camera to Sunlight WB and photographing under tungsten light. Orange, right? Then set it to tungsten and take it outdoors. Blue, right? What you want to do is set the "K" value so the light you're actually using is warmer than the set value for an overall warm look. Jon

Warming Circular Polarizers in the Digital world are basically useless. Really? Why? I used one on my tele extender for my S2 and loved the results.
