Haida Photo

This thread inspired me to dig out the Haida 77mm 10 stopper and toddle off down to Hardwick Hall to try it out on a reflections shot. This is the one I used it on - 30 second exposure, ISO 200, F8 with the 12-24 lens on the K-5iis. I haven't had to remove any colour cast on this image which to me...

which is a good polarising filter?

Needing to get a circular polarising filter. Note I didn't say 'which is the best' in scratchy whiny voice. I'll have to work my way up to the premium stuff later. I'm after a reasonable filter that does the job, isn't cheap rubbish that breaks or scratches but also, I'm not paying a premium over th...

Marumi make excellent polarisers at a decent price - there is a comparative text at Lenstip worth reading.

Another vote for Marumi. Try fotosense or amazon for the best prices.

which is a good polarising filter?

Hoya Pro1 are excellent polarisers. They can be a little more pricey, but I paid £25 for a 67mm and £45 for a 77mm from ebay; you have to hunt around a bit to get the best prices. Both were new sealed box units and well worth the money. Another bonus with the Pro1 series is that they are extremel...

Kenko pro 1 are made by hoya and are the exact same filter as hoya pro 1 and usually cheaper More than with any other filter due to their complexity - you largely get what you pay for You list several I have not heard of but I would recommend you avoid Vivitar which are useless Carl

Be careful on ebay - there are fake filters there at cheap prices.

which is a good polarising filter?

I have a Hoya HD CPL and it does live up to the claim of being easy to clean without scratching. The HD series of CPL filters cost just a few pounds more than the Pro 1 series. For example, a 62mm Pro 1 is around £40 and the HD equivalent is £49.

Why no built-in ND filters?

The original Q has a built in ND filter.

Why no built-in ND filters?

Hmmm, it seems the ND filter on the Q is built into the 01 or 02 lens and not the actual camera.

Why no built-in ND filters?

It doesn't necessarily require an ND filter, a lower ASA setting would surely do the job?

Why no built-in ND filters?

It doesn't necessarily require an ND filter, a lower ASA setting would surely do the job? Lower ISO can be as noisy as a high ISO (higher than the noise you get at 800 or even 1600 on my K5) which is why it's in the extended ISO range, there's an optimum setting for ISO vs noise which varies from se...

Noise Reduction / Raw editing software.

All three offer noise reduction. My preference would be the most reduction in the CS3 raw converter. There is also a noise reduction filter in CS3 itself but it's better to reduce the noise as you convert the RAW file IMHO.

A decline in DSLR sales threatens camera companies

I think innovation is the way forward for camera companies nowadays; Ricoh have certainly stolen a jump on the competition with a selectable AA filter (or simulator, which amounts to the same thing). I hope they continue the trend. I have been tempted many times to move to the Nex system (my IR...

New developments.

I agree with what paulyrichard has said about the 35mm Macro HD. Looks soft and I would say it's either faulty or had a dirty filter on it. The test needs to be done again with another sample. --
