When you look at store windows to check yourself out with the Polarized RayBans
on, you won't see your reflection but rather in through the window. This is because of the 'straightening' of rays of light going through polarization in the sunglasses.
//en.wikipedia.org /wiki /Polarization> This filter is used on film camera when you want to film the Honey that the Key Actor is checking out in a restaurant when he's walking down the street. Here, we see into the shop rather than the reflection of the camera crew in the glass. Polarization is tinny little black lines in the glass that you can't see with your eye or on film. Filters with polarization are often 'circular' meaning that when you spin the filter the Neutral Density changes or darkens the glass depending on the direction that you are holding the black lines in the glass, and the direction that the sun or film light is hitting the subject you are looking at through it. Ray Ban's polarized lenses will affect how your phone's LCD screen will look to you. You may not be able to read it depending on the Hz rate (image re-fresh rate) that your phone is sending out light at to you and the direction of the little black lines of polarization in the glass of your sunglasses. If this is a concern or necessity, then go for the G15's which don't have the polarizing lines in them. :n
