QUOTE(albnok @ Dec 3 2009, 03:07 AM) finejava: Tell us what you think of both of them! If you take the neutral one and increase contrast, is it more or less noisy than the ACR version? Hey sifu.... what does this mean ?It looks like both IDC and RPP have a different idea of AWB but personally I think both are off; RPP is too cold while IDC is too warm. Oh no that Putrajaya TT was a long time ago with clivengu; pictures here: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Soony: No, the hood will not fit. Do not bother buying a CPL for an ultra-wide angle lens. You will never be able to tune the CPL evenly across the frame. ieR: I would think otherwise. Film is usually Daylight WB (it is hard to find Tungsten WB film) so it would look like IDC's output. Streetlights on Fujifilm Superia ASA400: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « lwliam: Er... then you'd be left out in an advanced wireless TTL class LOL. Not many people have enough flashes to justify such a class I guess. cjlai: Love your ring collection! I have a similiar 49mm to 77mm step setting but skipping some sizes (forgot which ones.) porkchop: Use the Auto HDR mode lah since it is not moving. However if you want your blacks to stay black just turn off DRO and HDR. clivengu: Stylish! Now go change your avatar. Why an CPL is not encouraged for UWA lens ? |

The CPL effect only covers a 90 degree arc. Ultra-wide angle lenses can cover wider angles, so only part of the sky is polarized.
![]() From here: http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/filters.htm Look for the heading "Avoid polarizers on wide-angle lenses". Also here: ![]() MechaHerc: I have personally experienced the CPL and ultra-wide angle lens problem. If you want you can go ahead and buy one but don't say I didn't tell you so! Soony: If you are not going to get a lens with a bigger filter diameter than 62mm, stick to it, since you can't use it on ultra-wide angle lenses anyway. tanjq87: The 50mm can do the 24-70mm. Well I would end up using mostly the 24mm and 70mm ends anyway. This post has been edited by albnok: Dec 3 2009, 01:17 PM |

So CPL is not suitable for UWA lens.
What about ND filter? Is it ok? Damn, got poisoned with ND filter when saw this http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/803479/0 And where i can find this filter in here http://www.lightcraftworkshop.com/site/page1000.aspx what that i can found here, all is individual ND filter.. |

ND is good, but you may prefer a Graduated ND (though, you will look to the Cokin filter system for that because filter rings do not allow you to adjust the position of the gradient, only rotate it.)
Note that if you are using full-frame ultra-wide angle lenses, the regular P type holder will cause vignetting. And yes I've done the variable ND thing with 2 polarizers! It gets close to an infrared filter. |

![]() Cokin P series filters. True enough even without the adapter I already get vignetting on my Sigma 17-35mm F2.8-4 EX on FF. tanjq87: For casual use you probably won't need the 24-70mm. For event work, that and the 12-24mm are crucial. |

Thanks albnok for comfirming. Never try the cokin. will go do some research about it.. Note that if you are using full-frame ultra-wide angle lenses, the regular P type holder will cause vignetting.
