B+W Zirkular-Polfilter MASTER 58mm – Premium Circular Polarizer for Lens Protection and Glare Reduction
The B+W Zirkular-Polfilter MASTER 58mm is a high-quality circular polarizing filter designed for 58mm lens threads. It reduces unwanted reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and foliage while enhancing colour saturation and contrast in outdoor and landscape photography.
KSM multi-coated glass with MRC nano layer delivers exceptional light transmission and scratch resistance
58mm filter thread fits a wide range of standard and professional lenses
Circular polarisation preserves correct autofocus and metering performance across all camera systems
Unlike standard polarizers, the MASTER line combines a slim filter profile with KSM (Karl Schott Multi-Coated) optical glass and an MRC nano coating. This construction minimises internal reflections, ghosting, and flare even in challenging lighting conditions. The 58mm diameter is a common thread size across many wide-angle and standard lenses, making this filter a versatile addition to any lens kit.
Ideal for...
Landscape photographers seeking deeper blue skies and reduced atmospheric haze, architectural photographers managing reflections on glass facades, and outdoor videographers who need consistent polarisation without compromising autofocus accuracy. The filter is particularly suited for lenses with front elements that rotate during focusing, where a fixed circular polarizer avoids the need to readjust rotation after each focus pull.
Anwendung von B+W Zirkular-Polfilter MASTER 58mm
Screw the filter directly onto a 58mm-threaded lens front element
Rotate the filter while looking through the viewfinder or LCD until reflections are minimized and colours reach desired saturation
Combine with a lens hood to prevent stray light from entering the filter edges
Clean the MRC nano surface with a microfibre cloth after use to maintain optical clarity
B+W is a German optical manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the photography filter market. The MASTER line represents the brand's premium tier, featuring multi-coated glass and nano surface treatments for enhanced durability and light transmission. B+W filters are widely used by professional photographers and videographers who require consistent optical performance and reliable build quality.
A circular polarizer (CPL) reduces reflections and glare from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and leaves. It also deepens blue skies and improves colour saturation and contrast in outdoor photographs. Unlike a linear polarizer, a circular polarizer preserves correct autofocus and metering functionality.
The filter fits any lens with a 58mm filter thread. Common lens families using this thread size include various wide-angle and standard focal lengths from manufacturers such as Canon, Nikon, Sony, and Sigma. Check the lens specifications for the filter thread diameter before purchase.
KSM stands for Karl Schott Multi-Coated, indicating that multiple anti-reflective coatings are applied to the optical glass. MRC nano refers to a nano-scale coating layer that provides additional protection against scratches, water, and dirt while maintaining high light transmission.
The delivery includes one B+W Zirkular-Polfilter MASTER 58mm circular polarizing filter in its protective case.
The product comes with a 24-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
