I really like polarized sun glasses for skiing on a bright day and the
salt.
I lose less color definition and can see the gauges on the dash with
little problem. Sure is nice to have a polarized filter on a camera on
a bright day and all I get are better colors in the photo . . . unless I
fail to rotate it properly. Not a problem with glasses.
