Helix Burkard

The CP Filter is the ultimate filter for landscape photography. It works by reducing reflections to increase color depth and contrast. The Helix MagLock™ Filter System was developed both to eliminate the hassle of threading filters on and off, while also providing a filter that's safely locked in place once installed.
