What kind of polarization filters are these - linear or circular? If circular, are they available in left-right handed pairs?

The kind I bought appears to be linearly polarized. But I think I came across circularly polarized filters when I was shopping.

Yes you will see vignetting near the 24mm range and maybe in the 30mm range. If you use the polarizing filter take off the UV filter first. You do not need both on and the more you stack the worse the vignetting will get.

I don't own that lens, but from some reading around it appears that regular filters are fine; however, I will make note that circular polarizers on a wide angle will produce very strange results due to uneven polarization. That may or may not be a concern depending if you want to use it for creative effect.

Polarizing filters reduce the amount of light passing through them. Typically by about 2 1/2 stops. Rotating the bezel changes the accepted direction of polarized reflected light but not the overall passthrough.If the light is adequate for exposure the camera's auto system will compensate leaving the incoming image as bright as it would be otherwise. But that will be accompanied by wither less depth of field (from a further opened diaphragm) or greater motion blur (from a longer exposure time).

I don't believe that there is. As I look at the camera, I don't see a place that you would be able to mount one to. You could always try and make your own adapter using an inexpensive polarizing filter. You have to keep in mind, if you make one that mounts to the end of your lens, that it might be a problem when the lens automatically retracts itself. You'd also have to have some way of being able to rotate the filter to adjust the polarization effect itself. So, although you'd like a polarization filter, you don't want it to cause damage to the lens motor assembly by impeding the natural movement of the lens.

No. You need a 50mm polarizer. You could get an adapter ring but that can start to cause vignetting at the corners. Get a 50mm polarizer.

Not sure what the thread size is on this lens. These will fit where you would attach a circular polarizing or neutral density filter. They stack on each other so you could use all four of them and even add a polarized filter depending on the photo that you are trying to achieve. The cap is a bonus but my quess is it will fit. Check the threads on the lens.

The circular polarizer is used to remove glare and darken sky's. You also loose a couple of stops of light, so at night and indoors you will not need it, although it might be effective indoors to reduce glare on non metallic surfaces. If you want to replace it you can use a skylight filter or a UV filter.

All filters are made to protect or give effects to the lens of the cameras. The Nikon 52 mm circular polarizer filter was specially made for a lens of 52 mm of diameter and will fit any lens of this diameter. It is a good filter that will improve the colors of your pictures. It works well on my Nikon lens of 52 mm. I will highly recommend it.

glass filters (high optical glass), yes, you can turn them for effect, and I am pretty sure the rings are a very good plastic. They are light weight, each come in their own plastic case.

As I recall, they are polarity specific. If they're in backwards, you won't get anything.

I still have the box. I will see if I can find information. http://www.pegasuslighting.com/optivex-uv-filter.html look at this one

yes I believe there is mine are passive/polarized and only works on 3 models of TV. Hope this helps.

So... these filters serve two different purposes. The UV filter that I purchased is on my lens to protect the first element when I'm in situations that require me to be less than 100% diligent about where my lens is. A hood serves the same purpose so I supposed it is kinda redundant redundant... The Circular Polarizer is designed to reduce glare coming off of non-metallic surfaces. It can add "pop" to landscapes and cloud scapes much in the same way that polarized sunglasses do for your eyes. They do reduce the amount of light that makes it to your sensor and you'll need to take this into consideration. Hope that helps. So... these filters serve two different purposes.

All filters are made to protect or give effects to the lens of the cameras. The Nikon 72 mm circular polarizer II filter was specially made for a lens of 72 mm of diameter and will fit any lens of this diameter. It is a good filter that will improve the colors of your pictures. It works fine in my Canon lens of 72 mm. I will highly recommend it.

I agree with the others. The polarizer needs to be rotated after the focus is set, but not by much. Make sure that the filter size is 62mm or it will not fit this lens.

Apparently it is NOT compatible. The RealD glasses are passive glasses that use right and left polarization of light (similar to movie theater) to separate the right and left circular polarization signals. The MX522 actively switches right and left signals so you need sync'ed glasses that switch quickly at the same rate (144Hz DLP-Link glasses).
