He sends special delivery so should be with ya tomorrow. Very nice buy.

Yeah I can't wait to get it. After everything thats gone wrong recently with buying a flat, I needed something to cheer me up. Looking forward to giving it a good run out on Sunday at the meet.

Quick question - is a hard or soft edge on an ND Grad filter better?

michaelgreen78 wrote in post #5666157
Hmmm...I guess I'll go for the soft one for now...all this talk of filters has made me buy some on ebay. Off to Provence for 2 weeks at the end of next week so it'll come in useful for that.

Any suggestions for other useful filters?

I agree with Mitesh that the soft filters will be more flexible and so used more often.

I would recommend some ND filters and leave out the coloured ones. Photoshop has a "Photo Filter" adjustment layer so use that instead

A link in my signature has loads of info on GND's and ND's, with useful posts from other members.

Remember the times, if not, give me a call if you wish to meet up later. Are you coming with a POTN member?

Look forward to seeing you then.

Just ordered my filters - ND8 Grad, ND8, 4x close up (for a laugh!) normal & wideangle holders and 3 different adapters for my lenses. Hopefully they should be here by the beginning of next week.

Nice one, where did you order these from? I might just settle for the ND4 Grad for now. Oh the choices.

Incidentally, here are some shots from today. Felt like a bit more "lomo" style on some of them. The usual places from me.

All from ebay - 3 or 4 different uk sellers.

Cool shots - the second one is pretty neat.

Since it is payday tomorrow, I think I need to do more shopping

Im just trying to warmup for the meet on Sunday. There will be so many pictures to share. I'll create a thread on just before I leave so we have one central place for them aswell as for the members who are not on Facebook.

Neat shots, Mitesh. That wheel one with your new filters?

Well yeah but it was very mild. Its prob on par to a ND2 but the vignetting on the bottom left and top right were due to the holder so I did some lomo style processing to really boost them and work in my favour.

Nice shots Mitesh, love the PP.

Really nice shots Mitesh

Thanks, im really interested and impressed by lomo work and how your usual failures are actually considered keepers.

I would like to try some more but I think we will have to wait for Sunday now
