Is this filter multicoated for anti reflection?

Let me quote Tiffen (go to their website's FAQ section): "The Tiffen Circular Polarizer is not multicoated at all. We used to carry TMC (Tiffen multicoated) filters but found no significant difference in their light transmission and also that the coating could be easily damaged, resulting in poorer performance. In any case, multicoating is a proprietary process, and we seriously doubt that any lens or filter manufacturer will tell you the exact nature and composition of their coating layers."

yes, but. You need to have the clear filter in place. The polarized filter I have won't stay on without the clear filter first.

The listing for polarizing filters is for one filter. The photograph is designed to show the transmitted light passing through the filters being turned 'on' or 'off'.

Yes! The quality is not amazing, however its perfect size and I love the original filter. You won't be disappointed. :) I used it for my wedding instead of a photo booth and everyone loved it

No filters are 'required' per se; however, I strongly recommend purchasing an inexpensive 67mm UV filter to protect the front element from scratches or damage. Multi-coated filters will reduce glare and reflections on the lens and glass filters are more scratch resistant and typically better optically than plastic. After destroying a more expensive Hoya, I am currently using the AGFA 67mm Digital Multi Coated Ultra Violet (UV) Filter (Protector) APUVF67Within 2 weeks of purchasing my lens, I pulled it out of the bag and my filter was shattered. I don't recall any dropping the bag or any significant impact but I was glad the damage was to a $40 filter rather than a $600 lens.

no. search on p100 filter and you'll see the 3m spec sheet that will tell you what it's good for and what it's not good for. Get your answers from mfg !!!

It attaches just fine with one filter, and although I have not tried a second filter, I can see plenty of clearance so it shouldn't be a problem. Also, this hood does not cause any vignetting.

Actually kind of. Its a good filter still but the coating will smudge a bit with cleaning.

Technically yes, but it is not matte. You will definitely see your reflection in it under certain angle/lighting conditions.

Yes, this is stackable with a similar sized filter. Keep an eye out for reduction in Image Quality.

One frame with a white filter (translucent fabric for diffusing bright glaring light). There are two different covers with a total of four surfaces for reflecting/blocking light: white, black(absorbing obviously), silvered fabric and gold fabric. To me, the white filter and the white reflector are the most useful and the item is worth getting just for these. Haven't found the silver useful yet, but I haven't had it that long either. Gold(ish) coloration can be added in post processing in software. Hope this helps.

Not as far as I can tell. There's a cutout window for the lens and flash, so there isn't anything to throw back a reflection or shadow!

In a word, no. It is clear. I'm fairly sure it's not polarized or anything, so the invisibleSHIELDs effect on glare etc is nominal.

I erroniouslly purchased the non coated version for my wife. She is a sunrise/sunset photographer. The non coated version allowed significant lense flare when pointed into the sun. While on vacation, we met another photographer who had the coated UVA filter. She had the same problem we did, only bought the MRC and hasn't had a problem since. I have since purchased a B+W UVA MRC filter for her, among other stupidly expensive filters, but I have wasted enough money buying items "on the cheap" for her hobby to know that you get what you pay for. I buy B+W exclusively for her 5D Mk ii and L series lenses.

it does have a hard coating but can still be scratched. The real reason to use this filter is to protect the primary front lens element. It does not degrade the image. i use it on a Nikon1-V2 with Nikkor1 10-30mm.

Though it may not be anti-reflective by design (and this I don't know), I get very little in the way of reflections on the clear screen cover. When my phone is in operation and I'm using it, only direct sunlight washes out the images. This is also true of every phone with a display I've ever used. Hope this helps.

Yes it is Multicoated. You will see on the ring that is says "Hoya HMC". The HMC is Hoya's designatin for "Hoya Multi Coated". This is a great filter and find myself using it more and more all the time for long exposure shots.
