Do any of you guys use filter pouches?

I'm just thinking something for my screw in filters. I've got a maximum of 4 67mm and 2 58mm - one of each is usually on a lens!

Quite a lump when they are all boxed. And do they stay clean or get covered in dust and fluff?

Yes, I have a filter pouch to keep all my screw-in filters for my Loxia set (they all conveniently share 52mm filters). I also own a set of 100mm square filters and holder, but I keep them stored away and haven’t used them in 3 years.

Thanks. Yah the lens looks excellent. it's going to be great for a lot of things, RE, walkaround, landscape, astro. such as small package with its' brother Tammy 28-75 which i also have.

instead of shooting pictures, Ive been shooting arrows :P

There are times when a realtor gives me time constraint, on those times I just do HDR. One of the reason why I bought the Tammy 17-28 is because it has filter thread. I can use a CPL on it.

Both of these images are ambient only HDR. I said ambient only because you can actually incorporate a flash frame to HDR.

The first one is the one with a CPL. Notice how the floor isn't blown out?

Nice, I've never even thought about Australia having forests.

I was curious too and Googled it. Apparently they have 134 million hectares (17% of land mass)

I have a filter hive for my 4x6 and CPL. But when I used one for my ND's I found that I got a bit careless and they all wound up scratched.

So I fixed the LCD on my 6500 with a $15 replacement!! Took about 30 minutes. Yay! Sony wanted nearly $400 to just look at it!

Where did you get the parts. I need a new memory card door on the r2 the rubber has peeled off about 98%.

This trail is actually located in my partner's home down in central Portugal. There were a number of Australian tree species that were imported into Portugal as a potential forest industry species I think back in the 40s, this included the Mimosa, Acacia and of course the Eucalyptus. Eucalyptus is the most common type of tree grown and harvested for paper fibre in Portugal, it's everywhere and is very lucrative because it only takes 10-12 years from seedling to harvest. The mimosa and Acacia is considered a nuisance species, it spreads like crazy and it's extremely difficult to control, the red colour you see on the ground in the foto are the Mimosa seed pods, they produce millions of them.

This is a great example of why non-native species shouldn't be imported.

CRAP!

I forgot to ask for expedited shipping. LOL my R4 is on a slow truck I get it Wed.

Oh, it does but they are very different: tropical/rain forest, and lots of other forest like in the Blue Mountains. Not deciduous, almost always greenish/bluish.
Here is a rain forest, called Daintree Forest. Look up the Dandenong Ranges https://en.wikipedia.o​rg/wiki/Dandenong_Rang​es and The Blue Montains National Park https://www.nationalpa​rks.nsw.gov.au …-park/parks/katoomba-area

Something a bit different, just to remind me that summer is pretty much gone for me right now This is with the Trioplan 100 f2.8 it's know for it's soap bubble bokeh under certain conditions.
