filter

I know this is a well discussed topic on many photography forums and definitely on YouTube where you can find many different points of view. Is it worth it to pay top dollar for a good UV filter in your opinion? Do good quality UV filters hurt or help in any way? If you use one what brand do you...

Nikon No. 6T is a close up filter with a 2.9 diopter, designed for Nikon 80-200mm f2.8 telephoto zoom. It has a filter thread of 62mm. The longer the focal length, the bigger is the magnification. It's not magnifying to it's full potential on my 85mm, but filter doesn't take one bit of...

I have a lot of filters, and a box of the empty cases that they come in. I picked up an AF-Nikkor 24/2.8 with a marred front element for under $50, and had an Ais Nikkor 24/2.8 with bad rear group. The two lenses have the same optics, but the fixtures are different. The AF-Nikkor has a namering...

Something unexpected happened. This weekend this recently bought wrist strap from Op/Tech disintegrated. The camera didn’t fall, but a unpleasant surprise nonetheless. If you use one, good to check if you can’t pull off the ‘rivets’. (not sure if that’s the correct word). I can basically put my...

I wanted to give it a try and use my tripod for landscape images, to practice using filters for upcoming autumn. I've only recently got my Lee Sev5n system and I haven't used much PL and ND filters before. and this is the first system I ever had. I have a few small "waterfalls" in my area I...

My wife and I are thinking of getting a few magnetic ND filters and I was wondering if anybody could share their experiences with these? Are they as wonderous as they sound...re. mounting and de- mounting? Are good quality filters available....K+F and Freewell seem to be featured heavily in any...

I was in my preferred photo shop yesterday and they have a big rummage box of sale items. Among the fairly uninteresting stuff I found a Kenko ND4 72mm filter which I asked to have put aside while I go check through lenses that would potentially fit it. Apparently - contrary to what I thought -...

Hi I went to shoot with an # 2 ND filter yesterday and all the shots were overexposed. I can post samples later. What did I do wrong? My only guess is the auto iso.

Greets; hopefully this generates some advice. I have an older telephoto lens with 72mm front filter thread. I need to remove the trim ring to access the front element. I can buy a set of the rubber tools to do that, but I can't find just a 72. Any suggestions as to what sort of cylindrical...
