    Circular polarizer - warming or neutral?



    <span style="font-family: Helvetica; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); font-size: 17px;"]
    <div>As my lens collection has turned over, I realize that my only circular polarizer is 77mm, and I no longer have a lens with 77mm threads. I got tired of using the step up ring and losing the option of using my hood. So I sold it and now need a 67mm one.</div>
    <div></div>
    <div>I was all set to repurchase the same B+W filter at 67mm when I started to think about a warming polarizer, especially with fall colors on the way.</div>
    <div></div>
    <div>Any advice? Neutral or warming? Thanks!</div>

    Read most anything from Moose Peterson and he'll give you lot's of reasons why a warming filter is all he uses. Here is an example:


    I have one that I mostly use situationly like for Fall Colors but there are several uses.


    Keep in mind he has a marketing interest as he has developed a brand of warming polarized filters
