I'm spending more time with taking pictures, with my D7200 with a Sigma 17-50mm f2,8 lens, of headstones and gravesites and I understand that a CPL polarizer filter may really help to minimize reflection. We're volunteering to do this for photo requests through the findagrave.com website. I believe that this model from Sirui is one of the most reasonably priced polarizer, but I don't know about the quality. Reviews, comments, suggestions all would be appreciated.

My suggestion is Hoya or B&W.Aluminum rings can be a potential problem.

For the price I would go with the B&W

Thanks to all. Went with the B&W brass ring model filter from B&H.

B+W FTW!

A bit pricey but well worth it.
