I have seen pictures made with the polarizer filter from Polar Pro. It seems it not only polarizes but also gives the colours a bad yellow/brown drift. Can anyone confirm this?

They are too expensive to buy just for testing and see how white gets yellow.

I purchased the six filter set.

Here I am using the nd32. I'll let you judge.

I still think this ND32 gives a yellow/brown touch to the colours however a direct comparison would be necessary.

Here is the only comparison I found but its not complete and some pictures are messed up.

However the first three pictures show what I mean. I would like a polarizer filter but I like the real colours of the DJI still more then the yellow/brown of the polarpro. Of course its hard to predict how it would look on my typical scenery but the risk it too high that I dont like it then.
Actually these pictures kept me away from ordering and making a comparison myself.

Unfortunately there is no real video comparison to really see how strong the yellow/brown effect of the polarpro filters is.

There seem to be odd distortion artifacts along the bottom edge, and sometimes noticeable on the right edge.  Is that in any way due to the filter used?

Also, can you stack one of their ND filters with the polarizer?  In very bright sunny conditions I can see wanting to use an ND + CPL.

Does anyone know of any alternatives to the Polar Pro set?  I found some filters for Inspire by Neewer and Snake River Prototyping.  Does anyone have any experience with these, particularly the CPL?
