You want something that's multicoated to cut down on flare. Hoya makes several grades of filters. Better off staying away from the bottom grade.

Circular polarizer is what you need then. Also maybe look into a graduated ND filter if you take lots of landscapes.

I have a couple Hoya filters and they have a more expensive, solid feeling then my other filters.

yeah the deal is with a circular polarizer, (i guess circurlar means that it have a thing that rotated to control the filter) yes and HOYA is that filter any good? for what i need? that is SAT , SKY and Removing reflections?

Adorama has the bottom of the line Hoya CPF for $76.50 so I say it sounds like a good deal at $25.
