Say guys and gals, who's gamed for another D90 outting har?

 

[jeezuinn]

I know, but you're talking about 100mm filters leh... Not 85mm (from hitech / cokin / tian-ya).

When you size up, everything goes up.

Edit: If you want quality 10 stop filter that is in 100 x 100mm form your ONLY option is Lee... Why 100mm? It will not vignette on 77mm threaded wide lenses (10-24/11-16/12-24 UWA uses 77mm).

Thanks for the info. Just another question, I heard ND110 is a screwed in filter? Your foundation kit has 3 slots ah. 80 bucks for UWA ring, meaning if wanna attach to another diff size lens, need to pay separately for another sized ring?

Yes B+W ND110 is a screw in filter.

The other option of 10 stop filter in square slot in size is Lee's Big Stopper.

Foundation kit you can modify the slots between 1 and 3. You can remove the slots if you don't use them. I only use 2 slots.

For most of us, we just get the 77mm ring. Then, if we want to use the filter holder with smaller lens, we use step down rings.

Though i know the purpose for a CPL filter but i havent really seen the need or came to a situation in which i would want to use it yet. :bsmilie:

To reduce glare of non-metal surfaces - makes your colours richer! Eg. when you shoot fish pond, you can see the through water surface better! When you shoot through glass, you can see the details beyond the glass better! (eg, see a star sipping kopi inside starbucks, but you're standing outside the window).... a few of the many valid reasons to have the C-PL!

Edit: I shoot little tank models, glare from the strong lights can be better reduced...

Haha i seldom shoot such situations.

Haha i seldom shoot such situations.

I haven't listed all the situations... :bsmilie:

Sometimes, you might use a lesser angle lens to shoot landscape. Eg, 28/35/50mm... such situations are best for C-PL usage. Skies will be bluer, water bed below will be clearer...

Forgot to mention I got ND400. Kiasu bought this then realized it's too dark. Camera can't focus. Every time need to screw off filter to focus. Damn sian

hmm u shld focus 1st before then put to manual then put on the filter. it will be more accurate.

 

[quizesilver]

Actually I bring the following with me for morning shoots:

ND8
GND4, GND8
Big stopper, 10 stops... meaning= ND1024
CPL

And decide on the spot, which filters to use, or not at all.

hmm next time can borrow the gnd from u to try?

 

[quizesilver]

qns GND
if we are using the filter without the holder will it cause any vignette?

for ND i think need a holder etc else it is going to be tiring.
