Marumi DHG Super Circular PL

Marumi DHG Super Circular PL


Marumi polarizing filter offers a slightly confusing four distinct ranges of circular polarizers, each with different glass/coating combinations. The DHG Super range gets water and oil-repellent coating, which works reasonably, easily beading away droplets and resisting fingerprints, albeit not quite as well as the Lee Polariser.


However, DHG Super polarizing doesn’t incorporate high light transmission glass, as found in Marumi’s EXUS polarizers, which may explain why our sample filter restricted light by half-a-stop more than the best filters on the test. Otherwise, optical performance is excellent, with no drop in image sharpness, and no sign of colour casts or vignetting. The latter is mainly thanks to a slim frame design that’s a whisker under 5mm thick. It screws very smoothly into your lens’ filter thread, and the polarizer’s front element rotation is also slick.


With filter thread diameters available in all common sizes from 37mm through to 95mm (and even an elusive 105mm option, if you can find it), there’s a DHG Super polarizing for almost any lens, and most are very well priced, in the UK at least.
