Wow, they're having problems selling a $600 software suite... Who'd of thought that?

You don't really need any filter, they assist in getting the look you are looking for. I love filters and use them nearly everytime I shoot landscape, but they are not what makes the...

I use a Lee holder and filter setup. I'm using a Lee microfiber wrap for the filters. I normally use the microfiber wrap and the supplied filter holder case...

I love them for the very reason you mentioned, composition. Its almost impossble the focus and compose an image in a 10 stop reduction shot. There's always a little "I think I got it".  The Vari...

So it sounds like they finally found a way to do 'native' HDR blending/variable pixel exposure on the sensor. I've often wondered what types of challenges there was to that, hopefully someone will...

The 85mm system should work, but it is at it's limit with that setup. I would suggest the more expensive 100mm setup. Personally, I'd say the 85mm system works down to about 24'ish mm FF (24 is a...

Nice set, On the first one I think the distortion may be distracting. Remove a little pincushion. Also looks like the sky was really about to light up, did you shoot this one a little...

I've never seen a color cast with any of the Hitec filters, (I've used quite a few 85mm Cokin P and 100mm Cokin Z filters). The Hitec filters I have generate no discernable cast. However, I must...

The colors on the first really hurt the image, but IMO there's still more that was needed compositionally. When I look at it I don't really find anything that screams out "subject" to me. Generally...

Alaska...during the right time of year with nearly endless soft light. But, not sure who I would like to guide/lead that workshop.

I actually use the Hitec versions (due to the costs) and I mostly pull out the 3 stop. What I've noticed, at least on my 1.3 crop cam, is the image circle doesn't make effective use of the reverse...

As the OP found, there are various aggressive ND's out there that don't require a great deal of post color balancing. For me I got annoyed with using mutliple filters and dealing with my 10 stop...

Hard to say, 35 film has a huge latitude for overexposure compared to digital. So someone could expose for the shadows and "stretch" out 13+ stops with a little loss in quality. Where as a proper...

FYI, when packing gear its actually ideal to have the heaviest gear as close and near to your shoudler blades as possible. Much higher and thing get a little top heavy, too low and the bag takes a...

I like the F-Stop bags (have a Tilopa ) but its not small by any stretch of the imagination at 48 liters. If packed correctly and using a small insert, you can fit a fairly versatile camping kit...

His "Contact Me" link has an email address on his web site. Give it a try.

For what its worth, here is the best test I've found for polarizers, all circular, http://www.lenstip.com/115.4-article-Polarizing_filters_test_Results_and_summary.html

Granted clear skies and landscape shooting takes a little more effort and a keen eye, but it’s possible. Try dedicating a sunrise or sunset to a location that looks to work on its own. Look for...
