FILTERS

Filters, everybody should at least own a U.V. (Ultraviolet) or a skylight filter or clear filter. Google what they do if your not sure.

TOP TIP Better to scratch, knock, bump or bang a £30 filter than a £300 lens. Fit a filter!

All my lenses had Skylight filters fitted. Use Neutral Densiy (ND) filters or graduated ND filters to darken (balance) the sky area or other area of a photograph.

See under PAINT.NET how to virtually eliminate the need for graduated ND filters, ND filters and more, using free software. Darken a sky in PAINT.NET for free, apply a nice border using FASTSTONE for free, apply a VIGNETTE in PAINT.NET for free, and more.
