If you had never used a filter before(I hope u had used a UV/skyligth filter), the 1st few more useful filter would be polariser, warm, and diffuser.
I would like to know abt the cost of ND filter myself too.

Yes. Polariser is those "screw-in" type. warm, diffuser and ND exits in both format.
Think those rectangle type is primarily Cokin brand. They have all sort of funny filter... Even one that put a rainbow in ur pic. Hee hee.

haha! so in general, screw-in or rectangular type is better?

Screw in type is generally better as the rectangle one is plastic.

Yea ND would not have much use...unless u need really slow shutter in day time. Otherwise PL would be a good filter to own. Hoya Cir PL costs around $30 at Cathay.
I got mine HOYA 58mm ND 4 for $11-$14 ( forget the actual price ... 1 year ago ) at CPHow much does a good ND filter cost?
