I consider my self a skilled photo enthusiast that loves to take photos of practically anything. I bought this polarizer to deal with the harsh light of the sun when in the southern part of the US. I used it last weekend to shoot a family reunion and have to say this polarizer is awsome, looking at the photos, the blues are very vibrant and the whites are very crisp.
I would definitely purchase others ofthis quality in the future.
At this time I have not used it for a long period of time to give negative feed back on this product.

This CPL is a very good product and works just fine in the Cokin system. Even when stacked with a ND filter or other it works just fine although other seem to have a bit of difficulty. Clear, crisp quality of glass. Thx.

Using for my "P" Series. I have no complaints about the rotation edges "being too sharp." Easy to rotate, and great quality of build and image production. I think it's perfect!

I can use this filter with any lens I have that takes the P series filter holder.

The cokin circular polarizer worked as expected with the filter holder. The filter was a bit difficult to rotate in the holder, and the teeth around the edge of the filter could be a bit sharp on the finger tips.

The polarization seemed to be slightly less pronounced than some other circular polarizing filters I have used. But it still had a noticeable affect on blue skies and clouds and reflections on water.

Perfect... took a few tries getting used to twisting the cap properly as to not accidentally unscrew the filter... but with a little practice and the proper finger positioning it worked flawlessley...

I read that the p-size might vignette at the widest angle, so I was pleased after testing a holder on my 18-200mm lense that I did not have that issue even at the widest angle. Unfortunately, my pre-purchase test did not involve a circular filter, so i was a little disappointed to see the filter's edges in my pictures. This is still only an issue on the circular filters, whereas the square ones are fine.
Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would buy it again. I was worried about quality given there are much more expensive options, but a professional photographer friend recommended the Cokin and it works just fine. A little fussy to get out of the holder.

Excellent CP, it works as said, I use it 80% of the time with a canon 50mm L lens.

Great product, was concered with colour balance issues however they are minimal and easily fixed with a grey-card anyway. which everyone should be using anyway..presets are not accurate enough

Comments about Cokin P164 Circular Polarizer Glass Filter:

One of the compromises of using any filter is that it might negatively effect image quality. I found this to be especially true with my general brand circular polarizer. That was completely unacceptable when shooting artwork and furniture.

I've been using this Cokin filter for a few weeks now and can say that it preforms very well. My images are sharp with no distortions. I have to admit though, that my older double glass filter did a marginally better job at removing reflections. I gladly accept the trade-off.

When using it, you have to turn the filter holder clockwise to reach the desired effect or you'll end up unscrewing it from the lens.

Solid 4 stars.

Works better than a screw-on polarizer and it is much more cost effective if you have many different sized lenses (not L or 77mm Lenses) Basically, if I needed another one I would buy it without hesitation however; now that have it and use it with the P series adapter I do not need another Polarizer again. Also, it is not as dark as most screw-on polarizer's so you do need to compensate as much with the ISO or shutter speeds. Really nice to have and use while walking around and shooting.
