Gradiated ND filter?

Where do you get them? I don't see them on B&H's site. Did I miss them?

Don't know where you live or what brand you are wanting but I found a complete kit here:

Hope that helps.

Another vote for the Lee system - Dimitri AND Scottie made me pay through the nose for them! BUT ...... They have not disappointed, it is superb kit.

With your talents, Athena, you deserve the best!

Cokin P's, but you also want to think about Internal Focusing (IF) Lenses, or, the same thing happens as with a screw on.

And go with a 2 stop and 4 stop, anything else doesn't seem worth it.

I also use Cokin filters, with the holder. My first experience wasn't that great at all, seemed to get some reflections off the screwed on circular polariser.

My 2nd attempt went better at a recent sunset

Hi just found this thread.

I have a question - how do the Cokin or Lee filters attach to the lens? I know it is a holder but does it just screw onto the thread at the front?

Cheers

I've used a Singh Ray Vari-ND, sweet bit o' kit but damned expensive Makes life a lot easier/quicker than using multiple NDs to achieve the effect and far more intuitive.

The filters attach to the holder, the holder attaches to an adaptor.
The adaptors come in different sizes depending on the size of the thread on the front of the lens. eg 72mm, 77mm etc.
So one holder with whatever filters you need and an adaptor or two or three depending on the lenses you have.

Do you use one? Can you recommend a system to me?

Thank you!

Athena, I use Photoshop CS2 and I can adjust it however I want. It don't cost anything

If you don't have a holder to fit your lens Bluetak comes in really handy

Another vote for hitech! They are supposedly a nice compromise between Cokin and Lee. I've been very happy with mine!

Really ?
The last time i checked it was over $600.

Thanks Lomond - I wondered how they fitted. Might look into getting some NDs

True, but if you have it anyway why buy the filters and go through the hassel of using them. I am sure you could get similar results with PSE3 or 4 also and that probably costs less than an assortment of filters.

I use Shing-Ray grad ND filters which fit in a Cokin "P" holder.

Can someone explain to me the difference between a ND grad and a grey grad?
