About the PolarPro BRK-CP
From our tech experts at CEN
A circular polarising filter, on PolarPro’s MagLock magnetic mount, from the Chris Burkard signature series.
Who it suits
Anyone shooting water, glass, foliage or skies. A polariser removes reflections and deepens colour in a way no editing can genuinely replicate, because it is removing light that never should have reached the sensor.
Our tech experts advise
Rotate it while watching the effect rather than setting and forgetting; the strength changes with your angle to the sun. Check the thread size against your lens first. get in touch for advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which filter do I need - ND, polariser or variable ND?
A: A polariser cuts glare and deepens colour. Fixed ND filters reduce light by a set amount for controlled shutter speeds. Variable NDs adjust across a range, making them the flexible choice for video. The filter type and strength are listed in the Specification tab.
Q: Will this filter fit my lens or drone?
A: Filters are made per thread size or per drone model. Check the size in the product title and Specification tab against your lens thread or drone model, or contact CEN to confirm.
Q: Do filters degrade image quality?
A: Quality glass filters are designed to be optically neutral. Cheap filters can introduce colour casts and softness, which is why we stock cinema-grade brands with strong colour accuracy.
Q: Does the PolarPro Helix Burkard CP Filter need a base plate?
A: Yes. It is a Helix MagLock filter, so it attaches to a Helix Base Plate threaded onto your lens. Base plates are sold separately.
Q: How does Helix MagLock hold the filter in place?
A: The filter attaches magnetically, then a quarter turn fully locks it down, so it stays secure until you are ready to remove it.
Q: Will the Burkard CP Filter vignette on wide lenses?
A: PolarPro states no vignetting down to 17mm when using one filter.
