I decided when school was over to grab myself something fun. I have had my eye on this Cameron neutral density filter to go on my DA star lenses. It is adjustable to block light from 2 to 8 stops, and I have been experimenting with it for the past several weeks.
I have been using it on both my DA* 200mm and DA* 16-50, here I was trying using it with my 200mm on the local river. I ended up getting some out of focus green leaves in to foreground, and decided I liked the added colour.
In the following weeks I went to Desolation Sound and experimented with some landscpes. This time using my 16-50 I captured a sunset in progress. I love how the long exposure renders the colours into the smooth water.
In all as my first foray into ND filters I love the adjustable ability of this. It it great to have an additional minute control of your exposure times. My only main complaint is the lack of being able to put my lens cap back on with the filter.
Pros:
- Great control
- Good value
- Pleasing results
Cons:
- Cannot put lens cap on while on lens
