Quarter Wave filters

[oliver imfeld]

where to get them @ what prize ?

 

[Phil Holland]

Schneider will be updating there website on Friday with sizes, availability, and price. I've been talking to them since getting the Motion Mount.

 

[Christopher Probst]

Cool! I'll make Camtec buy a bunch... they love it when I do that to them!

I witnessed that once. No questions asked! Love that.

could someone be so kind to explain what these filters do and why/how they should be used with the motion mount?

 

[Jake Wilganowski]

They act like a polarizer

Thanks Jake, but how and why would a normal polo not work... I think a few will be thinking this same question.

 

[Jake Wilganowski]

There is a linear polarizer in the mount. So if you add a circular polarizer, you get a variable nd since the 2 polarizers cancel out all light when rotated. So if you need the effects of a polarizer, you need to use a 1/4 wave filter instead with the motion mount.

Any suggestions to the best place to get these? sounds like it might be a bit out of the norm for most places you can pick up filters.

That's pretty much why I investigated and bought these:
