need advice

[wizard of my sin]

hi all,

im new in this so need some advice and suggestion on the technics on taking pictures eg. fountain ? water fall , the thing is how do i get the silky effect?...i was told by adjusting to slow shutter speed , but the problem is setting a slow shutter speed would make the picture over expose in broad day light(using av in doing so) , im new so trying to play around with the tv and av. so must i use a filter ?...and wat are filter really for and how much ?

im sorry to ask this silly question as i tried reading it but cant seem to understand as im a bit slow n bodoh.:cry:...i would appreciate ur advice....thanks in advance.

view this, you may need a ND filter to cut down the exposure if you are shooting at board day light.

thanks a lot....but just wondering how much will the filter cost me?

Depends on the thread size of your lens. Go to John 3:16 and pick up your filters there. Depending on what filter you're looking for, it could cost SGD 18 up to 45 or 50.
