Oct 12, 2006 19:01 | #3 Buy the best circular polarizer you can afford. The good thing is that a 77 mm CP will fit a lot of nice lenses, and you will use it a lot. The bad thing is they are expensive. Canon G1X II, 1D MKIV, 5DSR, 5DIV, 5D MKII, 16-35/2.8L II, 24-70/2.8L II, 70-200/2.8L IS II, IS, 100-400/4.5-5.6 L IS II, 500/4 L IS II, 24-105/4 IS, 50/2.5 macro, 1.4x MKII, 1.4X MKIII, 2X MKIII,580EX II, 550EXs(2), ST-E2.

I've played around stacking both and got some pretty good (to me at least) results. Happy Shooting, Herb

Oct 13, 2006 02:49 | #7 Polariser will cut 2 stops of light any way, so go with the CPL. If you really need an ND buy a resin one and blue- tack it to the front of the polariser http://natureimmortal.blogspot.com
