1 is 35mm perspective another is 50mm perspective?

not everyone used to use tablet to edit pic..some might find it hard and rather use mouse and keyboard

tablet good for LASSO tools XD

nah just depend on people... XD

Since nobody answered your question, i assume we don't have much landscape shooters here in this subforum...

I'm a Lee user myself, but had used the Cokin before this.
Lee is better in terms of Quality, but the Cokin is quite good when it comes to price to performance ratio.

Here's what you need:
A fliter holder, with the adaptor ring (Sometimes comes seperately)
Normal Cokin Holder+Adaptor Ring
Wide Angle Holder
Then get your own desired filters and you have it all...

You can also consider to get the kit straight away which has everything except for the adapter ring iirc.
Cokin Kit

Should you decide to go with Lee, do bear in mind that there's a very long waiting period out there for the filters and the price of 1 Lee Filter would have got you a whole Cokin Filter Kit with money to spare. But quality wise, no doubt Lee will be way better

I think I have to adapt to lasso tool instead of buying new gadget. =S

If you're comfortable with the field of view (FoV) and focal length of the old 50mm lens, then the new AF-S 50mm f/1.8G would be great. The 35mm f/1.8G offers a little bit of wider angle compared to the 50mm. Depends on the shooter, but the 35mm may be more of your type than the 50mm. Try it out and see if you like it.

Agree that at 17mm, it's almost impossible to get that kind of subject isolation.

Close to that would be a 24mm f/1.4.

Ani canera shop to re-commend me around subang or pj? As malacca can't get d7000 body @ rm3350 +- rm50 with free 50mm,my ask my fren to help my fren buy.

emm,may i know how much for the new 50mm f1.8g?

Cheers mate for the info. Will do more research on it. About the adapter ring, lets say my lens filter size is 52mm so i need to get 52mm adapter ring? Is the size of the filter holder universal? Like i just need to get one filter holder and 52mm, 67mm and 77mm adapter ring?

About the coloured gnd filter, which colour is the best to use in landscape, im planning to get g red, blue, purple and perhaps pink?

it was lasso tools and blur filter in photoshop.
not only with PP but with aperture as well.
however for ultra wide shoot aperture usually doesn't give defocus effect to the image.

I'll just hold the reflector for Celciuz.

17mm focal length is quite impossible to get bokeh like that even if there is such a thing as 17mm f/1.4 shooting wide open ! You would need to PP.

My guess is that if you can hypothetically shoot shoot at f/1.4 and 17mm focal length at that distance, you'd get almost everything in focus.

I believe colour of the ND is not important. Just get the common one (grey). If you want effects, play around with PP/WB.
