Photography Questions 
?
a. Why buy £70 Hoya polarising filter if we can get £5 Massa polarising filter?
b. What’s the difference between circular polarising (CPL) and polarising filter (PL)?
c. As a starter, should I get a 32″ or 42″ reflector? How much difference do they have?
I think that’s my questions for today. Answer any one or all three of them if you would. Thank you so much!
a. Optical quality of the cheap filter will be much lower.
b. It has to do with the way the light is polarized. Linear polarizers are easier to make. Not that linear polarizers work just fine for some applications but that but they are not compatible with cameras using AF systems or cameras with some kinds of TTL meters.
c. The difference is 10 inches. But it makes a huge difference in the quality of the light for close in headshots. The light from the larger reflector will “wrap” around the subject more.
