Well, you have top notch gear to work with. I've never been a filter fan. I do all my effects in post production.

My basic settings on my 20D's are: AV mode, ISO to suit (200 to start), center point focus, aperture of f3.2±.

If you are gonna drag your shutter, a monopod sometimes helps.

A 40D, a 30D, some nice glass and a great Shooting Partner.
