How often do most of you use a polarizing filter when shooting outdoors? Does it have a major effect on B&W shooting too?

You will use it a lot and it does impact both color and black and white. With a circular polarizer you can dial in the amount of polarization you want.

Assuming that you are using a camera that uses phase detect autofocus (which is almost every autofocus SLR camera ever made), you will want to get a circular polarizer.

You can "dial in the amount" on both types of polarizer. |

First thing I noticed was that unless I was in full manual mode, the camera kept changing the viewfinder brightness to the point I could only see the darkening of the sky for a flash and then it would compensate. In full manual mode (Shutter and Aperture control with a match needle for exposure) I could see the changes when rotating the polarizer. |
