Nikon, B+W or Hoya HD CPL filters - which is better??

[Trig's]

I'm looking at getting a CPL filter & whilst having a search for a deal I found a Nikon 52mm circular polarizing filter II...

So has anyone used the Nikon CPL filters (its multi coated as well) any comments on them - or do you prefere B+W's CPL's or even the Hoya HD CPL..

I can get either of them for around the £55 mark so am just wondering on which one.... More than likely will be the Nikon CPL II mainly due to it being multicoated (both sides) and its thin...

I've used both the Nikon and B+W; if you opt for the B+W Kasemann (sp), it's a far better filter than the Nikon. Better suited for the harsh environments (humidity, dust, moisture, etc.).

Another option would be to look at Heliopan; they're as good as B+W.

I haven't used Hoya for over 15 years. I am sure they've progressed significantly since I've last used them, but I haven't a clue on their current range.

Cheers for that Wail - I'll have a look at the heliopan ones...
