Circular polarising camera filter Hama Profi Line 77 mm Multi Resistant Coating

The Hama Profi Line Circular polarising camera filter 77 mm Multi Resistant Coating is a precision rotary polariser designed to reduce non-metallic reflections and increase color saturation and contrast. Made from high-quality lens glass with multi-layer vapour-deposited coatings and a nano lotus coating, the filter improves color depth and contrast while also protecting the front of the lens. The ultra-flat, lightweight rotary mount allows variable settings without significantly increasing the lens front diameter.

Advantages

This circular polarising filter removes reflections from water, glass and plastic, enhances sky tones and makes clouds appear clearer while preserving natural color reproduction. The NMC16 multi-resistant coating (eight layers per side) and additional nano-coating provide excellent light transmission, anti-reflective properties, water and oil repellence, easy cleaning and scratch resistance. Both filter surfaces are coated to prevent loss of contrast, ghosting and double images. The slim wide mount minimises vignetting, and the black anodised metal mount with blackened inner edges reduces internal reflections; edge sealant and stable mount shape ensure durability across temperature changes.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography to deepen sky color and increase overall contrast
• Shooting scenes with water, glass or other non-metallic reflective surfaces
• Outdoor photography where lens protection and easy cleaning are required
• Situations where in-camera polarisation effects are preferred to post-processing

How to use

Attach the 77 mm circular polariser to the front of a compatible lens and rotate the filter mount until the desired reduction of reflections or the preferred colour saturation is achieved. For maximum effect, position the camera at an angle of approximately 30–40° to the reflecting surface. Adjust the filter while viewing the scene through the viewfinder or live view to control contrast and reflection removal. The slim mount helps avoid vignetting on wide-angle lenses, but always check the field of view after fitting the filter.

Recommendations

The Hama Profi Line 77 mm CPL is most effective for landscape and outdoor scenes with non-metallic reflections. Clean the filter with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners; the nano-coating eases cleaning and repels water and oils. Store the filter in its box when not in use to protect the coated surfaces.
