Firstly, get a circular polariser unless u're sure your camera can use a linear one.

Secondly, unless you're very, and I mean very particular about quality, almost anyone from the reputable brands will do, like Hoya etc.

I've even used a cheapo one from a no-brand Japanese company and it worked well!

If you have a few lenses of different thread size, get the circular polarizer of the biggest size. You can use step up ring for your smaller lenses. I would recommend B + W and Nikon circular polarizer if you want better quality. I wouldn't recommend getting linear polarizer if you are using auto focus camera.
