If you're confused as I was, here's a tip: br /This is the regular circular polarizer with Multi-Coating. The Kaesemann circular polarizer with Multi-Resistance Coating is the other item br / br /http://www.amazon.com/Kaesemann-Circular-Polarizer-Coated-Filter/dp/B0000BZL8W/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8s=electronicsqid=1222740876sr=8-3 br / br /It seems that the Kaesemann has a higher quality reputation, and since they're priced almost exactly the same as of now, I would buy the Kaesemann one.

If you have quality glass, like the Canon L series, then you need quality filters. the B+W are made from ground optical glass, not a piece of plain glass like as you see in the tiffen and hoyas filters (even the expensive ones are still cheap grade glass). Only B+W and Heliopan put the time and $$ into making filters that are designed to be used with your quality lenses and not distort and reduce the optical quality of them. I have 2 MRC, 1 Kaesemann, and 1 slim one, and I love them. I have a Heliopan as well, and I prefer the B+W a little bit more as its a brass ring and not aluminum and thus does not bind up as easy, and thats important when you want to change filters quickly! I like the MRC the best of them all, the slim one is a pain since you cant put a normal canon lens cap on it, but the Heliopan slim one you can... If you use a cheap filter on a pro grade lens, you are wasting your money, on the lens and the filter as the filter just hurt your image quality, and thus you lowered the quality of your lens! In filters, like lenses, you get what you pay for!!! br / br /I shoot in all kinda of weather conditions, from sunny and warm, to windy and cold or snowy, and I have never had any major issues with any of my B+W filters acting up! I prefer the MRC or even the Kaesemann over the entry level one, but even their entry level one is ground glass, so you still get a great quality filter at that price point.
