Un Branded....
I have a couple of unbranded filters :oops: - they fit in an unbranded Chinese copy of the Cokin P filter system. Cokin filters fit it just fine but it came with a ND grad and circular polarizer as a kit. So far no complaints, but I will upgrade to Cokin one of these years .......probably.

Un Branded....
No lynching here.... I have a branded $20 circular polarizing filter. Works just fine. I am positive that more expensive filters will give sharper images, and they will most certainly give a better polarizing effect... I do not know if the increase in quality outweighs the price for my uses....

Neutral Density Filters
I can't tell you why there are three, but ND grads are usually described as 'hard' or 'soft'. This is not a comment on the material used but the transition between grey and transparent. The soft ND grads have a much less defined change between the two. In hard grads, the transition is much more abru...

Hi Lilly The following may be useful in helping make a decision as to which sort you need from FORMATT web-site (Hitech filters): http://www.formatt.co.uk/stills-filters/filter-kits/graduated/grad-kit-4-nd0-3-nd0-6-nd0-9-filter-graduated.aspx "Graduated NDs are available in Soft Edge or Ha...

just came back from holiday
another thing I have learned, I desperatly need a set of ND and ND grad filters... When the sky is nice and blue then it isn't all that hard to get a good exposure on both the sky and the landscape but when there is overcast it gets very difficult if not impossible without a ND grad filter. So t...

just came back from holiday
when there is overcast it gets very difficult if not impossible without a ND grad filter. Agree - I have just been away (Yorkshire Dales & Lake District) and the ND grads I have just got hold of were very useful as the sky was often overcast. Took quite a few shots of each view all th same tryin...

Close Up
I have a x2 macro converter that I use with a 50mm prime. You undoubltedly get a reduction in quality with these as there is a large amount of additional glass. I however do not possess a dedicated macro lense and find that the x2 convertoer gives me OK results as does my new Tamron 70-300 (even tho...

Is there no swear fitler on this forum? Most other places I post I can't type crap without it being blocked or changed. 'Arse' or 'ass' on an other form I frequent gets changed to 'American bottom'. Anything else gets changed to 'bad use of language' which can make for some very funny sentences. ...

So I reverse mounted my A 28mm f2.8 on my DA 50-200mm... Do you know of any suppliers of the filter-to-filter type reversing adaptors? There are hordes about with the bayonet one side and filter the other, for reversing a lens directly on to the camera mount, but I haven't seen the type that yo...

Tyr's Insane Macro Day.
On the topic of adapters I have taken a slightly different approach. I have a set of Cokin filters and adapters. So I screw on the filter holder adapters, one side was done like it is supposed to, the other adapter I slid in one of the filter holders. It's not bomb proof but held together well enoug...

Polarizer Filter
Hi All I'm about to purchase a polarizing filter for my 16-45, now do i really need to buy a digital compatible one or will a non digital one do the job as there is a considerable cost difference. I'm looking at the Hoya range but i'm open to other recommendations.

Polarizer Filter
There will be different opinions on this, but there have been advances in recent years in the quality and the coatings used on polarisers. If you want a neutral grey result, the best image quality and a circular polariser then it will not be cheap in 67mm size. I would try one of the Jessops c...
