Parade Lens, Planning on taking 70-200 with a polarizer. Do I use my lens hood? Or lens hood no polarizer? Will be using 5dc sun and shadows on the street at 10am.
Thanks for the information.

Jul 03, 2010 05:53 | #3 If I had a 24-70 thats what I think I would use. My Sigma is so slow, and Tamron won't work on my FF. Guess i'll take my 50mm as well. The 70-200 the best glass I have.

Parade pictures with a Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. Hood used, no polarizer.
The lens seems to have worked well at these parades without a polarizing filter.

I don't believe a polarizer would be needed for a parade.
