B+W 58mm MRC Basic Circular Polarizing Filter — Schott glass CPL with nano multi-resistant coating, brass frame, cuts glare and boosts color saturation in-camera.

The B+W 58mm MRC Basic Circular Polarizing Filter is a professional-grade CPL filter engineered for photographers who demand true optical clarity, rich color saturation, and reliable glare elimination. Built with premium Schott optical glass and a brass frame with enhanced knurling, this 58mm filter is a precision tool that delivers results straight out of camera — no post-processing required.

Featuring B+W’s exclusive Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) applied to both sides of the glass, this circular polarizer suppresses unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces, cuts through atmospheric haze in landscapes, and dramatically deepens the blues of skies and the greens of foliage — all while maintaining full compatibility with your camera’s autofocus system.

### Key features

- **Eliminates Reflections and Glare:** Filters out polarized light from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and car windshields — revealing detail and color that would otherwise be lost.

- **Reduces Atmospheric Haze:** Arranges directionally scattered light to cut through haze in landscape photography, producing cleaner, more vivid horizon shots.

- **Richer Color and Tonal Saturation:** Deepens the saturation of skies, foliage, and water without any post-production editing, for a natural yet impactful look.

- **Premium MRC Nano Coating on Both Sides:** B+W’s Multi-Resistant Coating ensures broadband light transmission, minimal residual reflection, superior scratch resistance, and effortless cleaning for a long filter lifespan.

- **Durable Brass Frame with Enhanced Knurling:** The precision-machined brass ring resists cross-threading and warping, providing a secure, easy-to-grip fit on your lens even in the field.

- **Autofocus Compatible + Includes Storage Pouch:** The circular polarizer design maintains full autofocus and metering functionality, and the filter ships with a 100% cotton storage pouch for safe transport.

### Frequently asked questions

**Will the B+W 58mm MRC Basic CPL filter work with my autofocus lens?**
Yes. The circular polarizer design is specifically engineered for use with autofocus cameras and lenses. Unlike linear polarizers, it does not interfere with your camera's autofocus or TTL metering systems.

**How much light does the B+W 58mm MRC Basic Circular Polarizing Filter reduce?**
The filter has a filter factor of 2 to 2.8x, which corresponds to a light reduction of approximately 1 to 1.5 stops. You may need to adjust your exposure accordingly when shooting in lower light conditions.

**What makes the MRC coating on this B+W filter different from an uncoated or single-coated filter?**
B+W's MRC (Multi-Resistant Coating) is a nano-technology broadband coating applied to both sides of the Schott optical glass. It increases light transmittance uniformly across the spectrum, minimizes residual reflection, and provides enhanced scratch resistance along with much easier cleaning compared to uncoated or single-coated alternatives.
