Help, with Burnt out sky please.
Hi Photon If you have Adobe Camera Raw CS4 you can add a digital graduated filter to any part of the image. Set the filter location, orientation and size then freely adjust exposure, brightness, contrast, Saturation, colour, clarity and sharpness.

I still can't follow you... well I can but I've no idea why you want to go in that Edit / Menus for? As for Camera Distortion, look under Filter>Distort>Lens Correction... that's probably the one you want.

A matter of filters
The problems with soft is that the transition is to gradual with some lenses so you basicly end up almost with a ND filter. With the link from Kris 1/4th of the image would be around the size of an APS-C you see what I mean? So a hard filter on an APS-C almost acts like the soft filter on the ...

Sodium Street lighting - Filter?
Wassup folks? :) merry X-mas!!! Anyone know if you can get a filter for sodium lighting? I love night shots, but everything seems to be polluted by sodium lighting these days? I've had no real luck compensating for it digitally. Does such a filter exist?

Sodium Street lighting - Filter?
The light is very red, so you could use the Tungsten setting in White Balance. However, if you do filter out the effect of the lighting, you end up removing the very character of the light that makes a night shot attractive. It would be like "correcting" the light of a sunset to make it look lik...

Sodium Street lighting - Filter?
depends... when lighting at night, I like to think in terms of how much ambient light you got, and how much light you need to add to a scene to get a shot with a particular subject... for example, I might light a door frame with my car headlights, and set my color for that light source and let th...

Sodium Street lighting - Filter?
I'm not sure though but that looks to me like a white balance filter. If so then it won't have any useful effect with digital. You could desaturate the yellow in post processing, it lose colour then but it should still have the same brightness (luminous?). Problem is though that the yellow sodi...

I mean if they're a white balance filter then it won't have any effect on digital because you can change the white balance. With film you were set on the white balance of the film so if you had day light and wanted to use it under tungsten then you need to shift the white balance from tungsten to...

I know sodium light filters are available for telescopes to try and deal with the problem of light pollution. Maybe one of these could be made to fit a camera?? I don't know as I've never used one.

Smeggy, the lee filter is a colour correction filter for white balance for sure! It change the sodium colour to daylight. The lee site has a big hint: Film Type: Daylight (5500K) And the colour looks precisely the same as the singh-ray so I really can not recommend them for digital.
