This may be a real newbie question, but how do you know when you've turned a polarizing filter enough when taking photos. I just picked up a circular polarizer and am not sure if I have it positioned right. Granted it is raining today, so I can't see any difference in the sky and there are no idication on the filter itself. The lcd automatically adjusts for exposure so I see no difference there and I'm not getting any difference the the shutter speed indicator as I turn it. The only thing I noticed is that when I look directly at it on the camera, turning it a certain ammount will remove the glare from the lense. Is that On or OFF? Any help/tips are welcome, thanks.
