Would second Kens, comment on film, in the distant past I had no trouble with the learning curve, developing film, and making/enlarging prints. Pentaxophile wrote:
I just followed the darkroom guy's instructions, it never occurred to me to be especially curious about exactly what was in that developing tank! You live, you learn... I guess what I would be wanting these days would be a reasonably good tonal range, rather than high contrast, as a starting point for 'digital manipulation'.
A good tonal range was always desirable, contrast is generally controlled by the choice of paper.

Had a mate who did wedding/function photography, with me doing the processing/printing.
But digital is another ball game, after a number of years, I am still trying to get my head around it, have to concede though, it is a much older head.
Take care.

I'm thinking of getting an N.D. grad or two to improve skies in landscapes. I'm not sure whether to go for round or square. I like the idea of square as you can adjust the position of the grad line and can choose soft or hard transition. On the other hand, the round ones allow use of a lens hood.
I have one of the circular,ND gradient/adjustable ones from 7day shop, at £17.99, it is well made, but I have not had a chance to use it yet, so can’t comment on IQ or any colour cast, if any.
You said about using your lens hood with such a filter, with the one from 7day shop this is not possible, as there is the adjusting rim around the filter which is larger than the lens hood fitting.
Hope this is of help.
Take care.
