New Tool for Polarized Imaging!
In fine art imaging, specular reflections can be removed from artwork images by using cross polarized lighting techniques. However, it can be difficult to get the camera polarizer exactly crossed with the light polarizers for maximum specular reflection removal.
This problem has now been solved with the Polarizer Alignment Card™.
Simply place this card on the copy board used for the cross polarized setup. Then rotate the camera polarizer until the lines on the Polarizer Alignment Card™ turn black. The polarizers are now aligned for maximum specular reflection removal.
The card has a second function; the lines on the Polarizer Alignment Card can also be used for adjusting the camera's focus. This makes the card a doubly indispensible tool for fine art imaging.
