wow congrats dude .... its awsome ... one of my fav ferrari's ever .......
.. dont you ever get bored of ferrari's ? lol
what i like more then a red 575 is a matte black 575 8) ....

imo .. the way i know polorizers is ... ummm take it off thecamera ... point it towards the light look through and rotate it .. u'll see tht the intensity of light changes ..... soo maybe mike is using a polorizer tht dosnt stay at one postitin .. as in its variable .. maybe .... hope yea know wat im talking about .. :roll:

Yes that's what I thought, maybe you can't rotate a linear one and it's "standard" setting simply doesn't create the strange effect..
actually to have to rotate the filter every time is the only downside, especially since it is hard to see when it is in the perfect position through the viewfinder, and to always take it off the camera, look through it and attach it again would be a PITA
anyway, no big deals, Mike's filter can get rid or reflections and glares so it's all good

every sort of polorizer imo should give tht light intensity effect thingy......
well if u find the best position u wont ahve to take it of the cam again and again ....
soo imo .... Mike .. go out .. take take with different positions .. see the best result and some how keep it on tht position ... and offcorse show us all the pics ...
but then again .. if u learn how the polorizer works in different light conditions ... yer pics would be crips and crystal .... :roll:

Wrong! The perfect position if perfect only for that angle. Walk two steps to the left or to the right and the angles completely change (angle formed by you, light source and the car's surface): for every single pic you need to adjust it for perfect results

I don't even know if "still ones" exists.. maybe linear ones, but in that case I don't see how it could work as good as the one you rotate yourself in the best position.

To be able to rotate it is fundamental: by removing the reflections on the top surfaces you will most likely increase the ones on the side of the car, so it's very usefull to be able to balance this the best way you can by moving the filter a few degress to one side or the other

Wow!! Amazing car. Your putting your new camera to good use

But as already suggested earlier you could try taking pics while crouching down, the results are much better IMO.

The filter that i have is adjustable, on that particular day is was really really sunny so for every pic i rotated the filter until there was the least amount of reflection.

Heres the filter that i have if ur interested
