Misty / Moist Hoya Circular Polarizing Filter
I think I would first try putting it in a bag with a few packets of gel crystals - put it in a warm place and see if you cam draw the moisture out Carl

Silica Gel sounds the most likely candidate you dont want to create more moisture by heating,well I would not have thought

Silica Gel sounds the most likely candidate you dont want to create more moisture by heating,well I would not have thought Heating will not create moisture. Warm air will hold more water than cold air but in a sealed system (like the recommended bag) you won't get more - but you should transfer som...

Without the silica gel, you might just redistribute the moisture Thats is what I left out Mike :oops:

Rice is also good for drawing out moisture.

Andrew, don't buy from a scouser! Hee!Hee!:wink: Jan. Perhaps Jan we should let other members know just what you did? Or shall we keep that a secret???

Andrew,There is only one thing worse than bad publicity -- no publicity at all. I don't care what you say about me, just make sure that you spell my name correctly. Publish and be damned, let's give everyone a giigle.:oops:

scanning slides to the computer
Further thought. I had many years ago a simple metal frame that fitted ito the filter thread and enable a slide to be mounted roughly 2-3inches from the front of the lens. As I recall a extention ring moved the lens forward enabling a photograph of the slide to be taken. Dated technology, I know...

Polariser and wide-angle lens
This is not a problem as such, more a wish to avoid buying something that I can't use quite as I'd hoped. Does anyone have experience of using a Lee filter holder (or similar) with filter and a 105mm rotating circular polariser on a DA15 ltd. Can it be done without vignetting? I understand t...

Polariser and wide-angle lens
Thanks both. Yes, I must agree that polarisers can be problematic on a wide-angle unless care is taken with where they're pointed! A thin-frame polariser would (or should) work, but then I wouldn't be able to use ND filters in front of it. Or so I believe. I seem to recall reading somewhere that ...

Polariser and wide-angle lens
I talked to Lee at Focus this week about vignetting on the 12-24mm pentax lens and DA15mm when using a polariser.I have been using a slim CP on the lens then the Lee holder and have been considering investing in the Lee CP. We did a test with the 12-24 and the Lee holder with Lee circular polariser...

Polariser and wide-angle lens
Thanks Paul. Like you, I have an uv filter on the end of my lens. I'd almost forgotten it was there -- hence my belief that the Lee adapter would fit on the da15 without trouble. Of course it won't, without those extra few mm added by a filter. Two of my favourite lenses create 'Lee problems' (i...

Polariser and wide-angle lens
Chris, I use the Lee system with the 31mm successfully. I can't remember which forum I saw this on. I use a UV and a spacer ring and CPL then add the Lee wide angle adaptor. This works fine even with 2 slots, no vignetting. SRB can supply the spacer rings to specific lengths or use empty filter ri...

Sensor flare, tamron SP90
Please excuse the length of this post, but i am wondering if anyone is able to help. I have an adaptall SP90 2.5, a lens that I love using. Perhaps I am sad, but even looking through this lens gives me great pleasure, never mind the images it is capable of capturing. I purchased the lens predomi...

Filter Systems for 10mm
I have a Samsung GX-20D, effectively a K20D but in a different body. My question doesn't relate to the camera itself, but the options for filter setups and opinion gathering. The problem; I have the k mount Tamron 10 - 24 lens and I love it. I rarely have it off my camera and love shooting lan...
