Like you say in one of your previous posts the 1/10sec is far to slow for most cases. Can't understand why he couldn't increase shutter speed on his camera?

we are thinking different things he was asking how he could reduce speed, we are both right!

I my think sudhar hasnt explained himself properly

too right i think you have hit the nail on the head! cant think of anything more than f22 i have shot

The only filters I carry is a set of ND's. I only shoot RAW so I can pull back most skies, also using a polarising action I can get even more info(I do have a polarising filter and Den is right about buying a good one).
Never use a holder, just stick it in front of the lens. Cowboy? maybe

But it still works and if I use them at weddings I could not use a holder because it limits movement and the use of a hood. I could go for screw in but it takes too long to screw the damn things on and off.
Oh happy days! I miss using the old Mamiya and the full blown filter system and I am in total admiration for you landscape guys who still have that wonderful element of time and are able to produce such stunning images.
