Hey guys, I just stumbled upon something interesting. Its about ND filter. Its about the usage of ND filters and their functions. This is the link:
http://www.ephotozine.com/article/Using-a-...-Density-filter Seems like a normal read? Wait this is the interesting part, so ill quote it here instead: QUOTE Tip: use a polarising filter A polarising filter offers a similar light reducing option as a Neutral Density 4x filter. Add two polarisers together and you can get an infinitely variable ND from 4x to very strong (almost black) by rotating the front one. Anyone wanna try it? I only have 1 CPL here. A user at another forum actually tried it, so ill quote it again: QUOTE I purchased a UV filter and two polarizing filters. Popped out the polarizing glass and the UV glass from their filters and inserted the polarizing glass into what was once the filter ring for the UV glass. I then screwed it too the rotating filter ring of the 2nd polarizing filter. Having two rotating filter rings made it difficult to adjust and make the whole setup a bit too thick (possible vignette). im not too sure whether the link works. Do report to me if the link is dead. It works like a champ.... A while back, one of my buddies didn't believe me so I made a quick video http://www.silveredemulsions.com/temp/VarND.mp4 And apparently a brand named Singh-ray produce such kind of ND filters where u can rotate the front elements like a polarizer to enhance its effect. http://www.singh-ray.com/varind.html |

QUOTE(wjie20 @ Jan 12 2008, 10:32 PM) quite interesting, question is, how am i goina try? ive also got only 1 CPL. (58mm) well, the obvious answer is get a new one, look for a cheap 1 of course. If it really does work, then im sure the reward is a DIY good ND filter in your arsenal  |

I have yet another question. For those who uses 350D, whats the brightness setting set for the preview screen? Cause my pictures turn out underexposed or overexposed on the computer.
