My brother recently bought one that looked like that from UK on Ebay and it turned out to be really fake. The backside specs actually describes a UV-filter instead and the filter says "Pixel" and not Kenko. I can ask him what the seller was called.

What are you going to do when the SUN COMES OUT!

Buy a 5 stop ND filter That should put the gloom back into any photograph. Spray some water droplets onto the front lens, to make the shots more lifelike. Change the time on the camera by 12 hours and wait until after sunset to take your snaps. Exif will then suggest a daytime shot. Put th...

Scratches on front glass - an issue?

Any scratches on the front element are exactly the same as having a Starburst Filter.... if you had a cross for example any light points would have a star radiating from them. A single scratch if it's wide and long will produce a line right across the frame at any bright points, which could...

Scratches on front glass - an issue?

Mine was nowhere near that bad. It had a dink on the filter thread which produced a single crack, straight acros the middle. So I think I got off lightly. Do you get any funny looks when you turn up with that lens (I used to) regards Bernard

Sharpness is a bourgeois concept!

Instagram will die a death due to it's saturation. People are already tiring of it on Facebook. There's nothing creative about applying the same preset filter that a billion other people have used. Regarding sharpness, I think it depends where sharpness is placed in the pecking order of goals ...

Light Craft Workshop Filters

I've just ordered some Hitech Grads the 85 series fit the cokin p holders. They do a 10 stop I've done a lot of research into filters because they are generally expensive and Hitech seem to be the best reasonably priced ones. One of my favourite photographers Ian Cameron ( http://www.tr...

Light Craft Workshop Filters

If using one of these 10 stop filters with a cokin type holder, isn't there a danger of light leakage around the sides of the filter? Andy

Light Craft Workshop Filters

If you are referring to my post then 'The Pro Stop filter is fitted with a foam gasket perimeter, which creates a seal between the filter holder and lens, thus reducing light spillage around the sides of the filter.'

using ND filters

ok I understand what your saying but does that render a sharp picture at the correct exposure without bluring the water or does the water blur naturaly because of the long exposure or do I have to add more exposure time to blur the water and will that cause it be over exposed . in which case do I n...

using ND filters

It is the long exposure time that blurs the water, adding the ND filter reduces the amount of light getting to the film/sensor and allows you to increase the exposure time. You may aslo need to opt for a narrow apperture setting to avoid over exposure. At the sort of exposure lenghts to achieve t...
