i frequently stack ND 110 with GND.
Hi, nite86mare, a newb question here. may i knw wat is nd 110? i'm using a nd4 filter. in wat way is it different from nd 110? thanks

No nos - I may sound crazy at times, but I ain't that nutty! So, warning accepted! :bsmilie:
Glass huh? Hmmmm.... :think:
:bsmilie:
they are same in the sense that both are nd filters
purpose is the same, extend exposure
nd110 is way stronger than nd 4, nd4 reduces light in a way that you need 2 stops more exposure. nd110 needs 10 stops more.
nd4 is more useful for lower light situations, where the exposure timing is long but not long enough to blur water, for example. example is iso100, f/8, 15 seconds, you extend it to 60 seconds.
nd110 is more useful for daytime situations, where exposure timing is short, and you need to extend the exposure by much more. for example, if your original optimal exposure without filter is iso100, f/22, 1/16 seconds, then nd filter will extend it to be about 60 seconds.
hope this helps.
Cheap cheap only la. 200+ USD a piece... :devil:
Actually the easy way to calculate is to multiply the exposure by 1000. It is not exactly 10 stops. 10 stops is x1024.
yes, but at such large long exposures, it hardly matters.
True. I just felt that x1000 is easier to calculate than x1024.
hello, does you guys know any webby where i can read up on filters.
cos if i getting filters, i actually do not know which type to get, what are the different filters, brands all these.
I have done some reading on filters.
I am currently using nikon d90 kit lens.
If i am not wrong, it is 67mm thread. So there is a need to use a step up adaptor ring right?
Only if you are getting for e.g. the 77mm filter. Most of us prefer to get one size filter (the largest amongst our lenses) so that can use across all the lenses, then use the step-up ring to convert those not 77mm to be 77mm, as filters are generally more expensive than those step-up rings.
I do that for my 18-105mm also; thus sharing one set of filters across the board. However if you don't foresee yourself getting any 77mm filter thread lens, then you might find it easier and cheaper to get 67mm filters.
Landscape photographers do stack filters at times, when the desired effect requires it. We very seldom stack a CPL with a GND. We mostly stack ND with GND. Personally, I will avoid stacking more than 2 filters.
Bro, what is the concern here if we stack a CPL with a GND ? I had stacked a CPL, GND and ND and quite like the cast.. But of course, there was some minor flaring...
Much appreciated for all ur info.
So to summarize things up, which series of filter i should choose is solely depends on myself. If i dont plan to get UWA lens. Then i should just stick to svller size filter. However, 77mm is common among zoom and UWA lens, so its better to get 77mm if i plan to purchase these lens?
Just a last question, the brand cokin is substantial right? Can any landscape or architect photographer give me a confirmation? Cos i think LEE is expensive.
