paul_garland Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 <p>Most of us use our CPL to make the sky a deeper blue, or occasionally to reduce reflected glare on water or glass.</p><p>I just shot this indoors, using ambient light. The CPL can really be a powerful tool at reducing reflections.</p><p>Unfortunately I can't seem to post the pic, so sorry about wasting anyone's time.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benniehoff Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 <p>For a neat party trick, try looking at your computer monitor through the polarizer. Make sure the polarizer is the right way around, just as though you were peering through a camera. Rotate the polarizer around, and you should be able to make your entire screen go black (provided you have an LCD screen as is common nowadays).</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 <p>Thanks Ben, I hadn't noticed that before. It doesn't quite make up for the lost capability to check shutter speeds with a CRT (<a href="http://rick_oleson.tripod.com/index-135.html">link</a> , thanks Rick), but it helps a little.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
