    Thank you for this video! I just received my Zeiss POL filter for my Sony a6400,,, after taking some shots around my house... WOW!!! This is a game changer, I can't wait to use this on my next RE Shoot. This thing is also great to take out reflections from TVs. Excellent recommendation!

    I always use a Circular Polarizer, combined with a Neutral Density. It has amazed me how much effectively the polarizer removes the vast majority of reflections on surfaces like wood, tile, marble, etc. I personally love the look better when I don't have a ton of distracting lights on the floor, especially when delivering bright and contrasty photos to my clients!

    Another awesome video Mike. Thanks for some of these in depth tips on specific aspects of real estate photography. These are the 'little' things that help elevate our whole game. On a side note: Could you do a video on pricing or pricing structure? I know it varies widely depending on where people live and skill level but, I've been trying to find something more to do with charging by the hour vs by the day vs by the job. Or should you offer combination packages (photos, videos, drone photos, drone videos, video intros by the agent). I'm feeling like it's one of those things where it's easy once you've been doing it but, since I haven't had multiple jobs for this, it's hard to see how to price this work out to prospective realtors. Thanks again.

    Very helpful video. To the point and with great tips. I don't think photographers appreciate the value of filters or anticipate the extra cost for quality.

    Hey Mike, I’m thinking about getting the Polarpro circular polarizer. Have you used this one before or any reason you chose Ziess over it?

    Thanks for Directing me to this video. I can definely see why you use a polorizer filter for inside RE photography. Are you also using this for your exteriors as well? Or would you us a ND filter there?
