Tiffen 58CP 58mm Circular Polarizer camera filter

Tiffen 58mm Circular Polarizer

The Tiffen 58CP is a 58mm circular polarizing filter built for photographers who need to control glare and deepen colour saturation when shooting outdoors. It threads onto any lens with a 58mm front thread and works with both auto-focus and manual-focus camera systems. The filter uses ColorCore glass mounted in a black aluminium ring and is manufactured in the USA.

58mm thread compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the 58mm thread size; the filter only mounts on lenses that share this exact diameter. Circular polarisation ensures proper metering and autofocus function on modern SLR bodies while still operating correctly on manual cameras. No other thread size or mount type is supported by this model.

Sky contrast and reflection control

Rotating the filter lets you darken blue skies, emphasise clouds and remove reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass. The effect is visible through the viewfinder in real time and the filter factor changes with rotation angle and sun orientation. It does not add special-effects colour casts or provide neutral-density light reduction beyond the polarisation itself.
