Now that I have used both filters from Break Through Photography I would like to talk about their performance. Polarizer filters take reflections off of leaves caused by the waxy sheen on leaves. They can also make clouds pop. Interestingly, they can make rainbows disappear. On the other hand they can also aid rainbows.

Using filters in White Sands National Monument can be tough on filters as this is a harsh environment. Drop a filter on the sand and it can get scratched. The wind can blow sand onto the filter. The first two days were characterized by storms systems going through the area. The wind was furious. I was sand blasted and so was my gear. This can be as brutal on filters as it gets; sand blasting, dropping a filter, and then rain.

          I really like these filters a lot. Neither the sand nor the rain stuck to the filters. They are easy to work with and the groves on the edge really help to rotate them and to remove them. Lens caps stick nicely to the front and does not fall off. The image quality looks very good. The colors look good and I could not detect any color cast.

          It is much to early to know if these filters will last or whether the company will pass the test of time, but if you are in the market for filters I can recommend them thus far. I am rather impressed.
