The Pros and Cons of Using Polarizing Film in Photography and Beyond

One of the main benefits of using a polarizing filter is its ability to reduce glare. Glare is caused when light reflects off surfaces like water, glass, metal or even leaves. A polarizing filter works by blocking horizontally transmitted light and only allowing vertically transmitted light to pass through. This has the effect of reducing or eliminating glare caused by these reflective surfaces. With less glare, photos will have better contrast and colors will appear more vibrant and true-to-life. Polarizers are particularly useful for landscape, outdoor and wildlife photography where there are often reflective surfaces like bodies of water. Reducing glare allows photographers to capture scenes with clearer blue skies and vivid colors in foliage, flowers and aquatic life. Beyond just reducing glare, a Polarizing Film further enhances color saturation when used on subjects with a blue sky backdrop. The filter removes the scattered light rays from the sky that wash colors out. Reds, oranges and yellows will appear deeper and more richly colored with a polarizer. Flower close-ups, colorful architecture and other subjects set against a blue sky benefit greatly from the intensified colors a polarizing filter provides.
