LB: Lighter, Brighter.

Singh-Ray LB filters are 2/3 of a stop faster than comparable competitive filters, giving you greater creative flexibility without any sacrifice in performance or impact.

The Singh-Ray LB Color Combo Polarizer has quickly become a “must-carry” filter in the field for both color and black & white photography. The Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer enables you to control glare and reflection, while simultaneously boosting shadow detail, local color contrast with an 8% color saturation of reds, greens and warm tones.

You’ll find you can improve virtually any outdoor composition, from close-ups to landscapes, with clean, true colors and legendary Singh-Ray sharpness. The Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer’s twostops of density means it can also be used to create abstract blurs and other motion effects.

“There’s a Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer on every one of my lenses and it’s a rare day when I remove it. I like how it controls reflections from leaves, water, blue sky, rocks and other elements in the outdoor scene, while increasing color saturation at the same time. The color enhancement is subtle, but it’s just enough to give images more ‘pop’ without losing any of their believability.” ~ Dennis Fratesa

QUICK TIPS

• The polarizing effect is most dramatic when you’re shooting side-lit scenes — maximum polarization occurs along an arc 90 degrees to the sun’s axis. Shooting directly into the sun will not polarize the image and may worsen lens flare.
• Uneven sky density may result from high polarization with a wide-angle lens. Dial down the polarizing effect for consistent density.
• If you plan to shoot often with a wide-angle lens, consider the thin-mount version of this filter to help reduce the possibility of vignetting.
• On overcast days or rainy days, tighten your composition to exclude the sky and use the Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer to eliminate glare and increase shadow detail, 8% increase in color saturation and local contrast.
• Experiment: turn the Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer when composing an image to see how it affects glare, reflection and saturation — and then dial in the look you like best.
• For dramatic, natural looking images when there’s a brighter sky in your scene, use your Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer together with our Galen Rowell graduated neutral density filters.
• You can stack other Singh-Ray filters on the Singh-Ray Color Combo Polarizer, such as the Singh-Ray Mor-Slo ND5 Stop, Singh-Ray Mor-Slo ND10 Stop and Singh-Ray Mor-Slo ND15 Stop filters. One filter needs to be a standard mount (to reduce thickness, our thin-mount filters do not have front threads).
