(More customer reviews)hi,
im a photographer living in Hawaii who made the dreaded switch to digital photography and ......
Digital "film" cant handle under/over exposures as nicely as film can. U over expose even 1 stop and there is NO data in the blown highlights. U under expose by 2 stops or more and the dark parts are really grainy.
well, i have to take wedding couples and shoot their picture on one of our beautiful beaches! Have u ever tried to shoot a wedding couple (wearing white) and a sandy beach (super white sand) at noon without a cloud in the sky? Do u like pictures of a brides dress thats a pure white blob with NO details on it? If u like shooting at F13 or more no problems but at F13, the picture comes out way to sharp!Everything is in focus from the sand at their feet to the horizon! Not as appealing as shooting at F5.6 where u can get the background to be a little out of focus.
sure u can shoot faster shutter speed but, once u go beyond the 1/250 shutter speed, your flash dont work. Yes, u can use high speed flash sinc but that only works if u are standing about 3 feet from your subject. I use a Metz 60ct-4 flash (very powerful) to try and combat the shadows a noon day sun will give the subject ,so i have to use the 1/250 shutter speed!

It worked great! the one i bought lowers the aperture by 2 whole stops so instead of F13 i was shooting at F8! way better because i got to keep my shutter speed at 1/250 too!! Pictures came out way better and i didnt lose all the details in the brides dress.
only negative i had with the filter was it did change the color balance a bit. It went a little to the greenish side. But, thats an easy fix in photoshop.
id recommend this filter (or any ND filter) to be in anyone camera bags if they are going to shoot any pictures in bright sun!! your pictures will thank you!!
