MagFilter 42mm Circular Polarizer Filter

The MagFilter System uses a thin, low profile, metal adhesive ring to attach to the front of your compact camera lens. When you're ready to use your filter, the MagFilter attaches through strong magnets built into the MagFilter Adapter Body.

Polarizing filters work by cutting the amount of polarized, or reflected light, that reaches the digital sensor. Polarized light can be found everywhere, including reflections on the surface of water, glass, reflecting from the surface of leaves, and even reflect from the soft blue of the sky. Polarized light often makes objects appear shiny. The use of a polarizing filter can reduce this, and will help saturate the colors, particularly in landscapes that contain foliage and a vast blue sky. Polarizers are very important filters and will retain information during image capture that is normally lost and cannot be recovered in post processing.

The revolutionary Carry Speed MagFilters provide the most innovative and unobtrusive filter solution to high end compact cameras. A very thin metal ring is first adhered to the front of the camera lens and still allows the lens to expand and retract back into the camera body. The Carry Speed MagFilters quickly connect to the metal ring with strong magnets embedded in the MagFilter body. A grooved bevel design prevents slippage and ensures a secure bond to lock the MagFilter in place. When not in use, the MagFilter can be quickly removed (no cumbersome unthreading involved) and the camera retains it's original compact form factor. The Carry Speed MagFilter system adds no additional bulk, which we find is an important feature for maintaining the pocket-ability of these small high end compact cameras, especially if you need to fit them back into their OEM travel cases. To use the Polarizer, turn the MagFilter around until the image is corrected.

The Carry Speed MagFilters retain incredible sharpness with high quality Glass Optics Made in Japan encased in an all metal filter body. The metal filter body is designed Black with Red accents to look as good as your high end compact camera, and an anodized coating ensures lasting durability. For convenience, a teardrop neoprene travel pouch with spring clip is provided with each MagFilter purchase.

Our 42mm Polarizer MagFilter is perfect for cameras such as the Sony HX9V, Sony HX20V, Sony HX30V, and the popular Sony RX100.

Carry Speed is currently developing various creative filters in a variety of different sizes to meet all popular high end compact cameras on the market soon to follow after our Magfilter Polarizer.
