IR Cokin filter and K10D

Stick the K10D on a tripod, focus, slip in the filter, and guess. Id go for F/8 (sharp :)) and then experiment, 30seconds, 1min, 3min, 8min.

Dreamy background effects

If you have CS2/CS3, you can try their Lens Blur filter. It can simulate proper lens blur, or that is the theory. In some ways it does a better job than guassian blur. In some ways it may not be worth the effort. Maybe not "dreamy", but might allow a better look than the "flat fog" that guassi...

How to use High dynamic range

You have to remember this "filter" is not a real HDR image, just a simulation. For a real HDR image, you need more than one exposure with different EV, then you combine them together with HDR software.:wink:

How to use High dynamic range

I use the HDR filter occasionally but it isnt very good. It just makes weird tones and light sharpening, which works on portraits and SOME landscapes but on everything else it looks crap and noisy i dont like HDR much, but i take 3 exposures, 1.5 stops apart, then combine them in a great program ...

Photographic Equipment and Iceland

A few landscape shots? I have just returned from Iceland and it is a photographers heaven, but expect rain/snow!! With the exception of one day is rained non-stop for one week when I was there. So weathersealed everything!, and I would have liked an UV-filter to protect my precious glass. Don't get ...

use of ND filters

...Thats the beauty, there are no right or wrongs,.. . Just continuing a little about "no rights or wrongs".....I have just started to experiment with long exposures etc. I have recently stood in the cold on a beach at 4am/5am in the morning when it's still dark, shooting very long exposures to capt...

Is 300mm much better that 200mm?

I have just purchased a 70-300mm tamron macro lens from London camera exchange and with cokin filter adaptor and skylight filter cost less than £130.. I think you should maybe have a look around... The other option is the sigma 70-300 which I also have.. I have managed to get some very good animal,...

The definitive ND Grad thread?!

I know this is a well worn theme in this forum (and others!). However, in trying to choose which grads to get, I still am struggling to find information from the many threads on the subject which is complete enough for me to come to a final conclusion. So I thought it might be useful to attempt to s...

The definitive ND Grad thread?!

I use a mix of Cokin P and Kood P-filters. (Cokin filter holder and cap) I have not yet seen any difference from a Cokin or Kood grad filter. But on the other hand - I have not used them as much as I wanted. But from a couple of hundred shots I have not seen anything to comment on. (I have 3 k...

The definitive ND Grad thread?!

Matt, I've just tried that and there is absolutely no colour cast! That said, my filters are maybe 25 years old so perhaps only new ones have a magenta tinge. Ah! Interesting ;) The current crop do. Are yours glass ones? Ahh, that's where I've been going wrong all these years, I generally use my ...

Polarising filter

As I've mentioned before I'm off to Iceland in a couple of weeks and I want to take some polarising filters with me. I was looking at the Hoya Pro 1 Digital range but they look a bit pricey, I notice Kenko also do these filters as well. Has anyone used Kenko before and are they any good in compari...

Polarising filter

Good polarising filters aren't cheep! Especialy if you want them to fit multipul lenses. There are two ways around this - either buy a filter to fit your lens with the largest filter diameter then use step up rings to allow the large filter to be used on the lenses with a smaller filter diameter....

Polarising filter

Check out the prices on eBay before deciding that Hoya Pro filters are unaffordable. A non Pro version should be alright too if you don't mind it being thicker.
