I do not understand what you are trying to say. A higher shutter speed also reduces the amount of light that reaches the sensor, just like an ND filter.
Unlike you, I do not need autofocus. It's nice when it works but ultimately I control the camera. The Rebel XT has miserable autofocus anyways. If the camera cannot focus, then I switch to manual focus, and then, get the shot .Talk to me about your experience using (auto)focus with 6 stop ND filter like you advise, I really would love to hear that fairy tale
Of course you are going to choose to believe that photo they have chosen is something to be proud of. Fact remains no matter what you have chosen to believe that pencil across face is just awful.
And yet, it is far, far more than you have ever accomplished. Or did you forget to post your magazine cover?
High shutter speed reduces amount of light sensor is exposed to during taking of a picture. Strong ND filter reduces amount of light picked up by focus sensors and amount of light in viewfinder. At certain point both manual focusing and auto focusing become impossible. One can find lengthy technical explanations why exactly but here is quick experiment anyone can conduct: Take lens that has manual aperture control. Start closing aperture while observing at which point focus confirmation indicator starts giving up and at which point focusing through viewfinder becomes impossible too. That should clearly show what I am talking about and why I find rattymouse's advice is incorrect and shows no experience/competence.
You are free to keep kidding yourself but one's hallucinations should be kept to himself, they do not constitute reality for others regardless of how real they seem to you.
Sounds so wonderful and smart! In theory. But it also shows you have zero in field experience with it otherwise you wouldn't have said such nonsense. 6 stop ND filter is equivalent to focusing that F2 lens at F16 with aperture closed, one won't see jack in that finder.Unlike you, I do not need autofocus.

Such a clown. F/16 in blazing sun by your own admission. I find it interesting that NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON supports you during this endless rant across multiple threads.Sounds so wonderful and smart!

And you are free to produce proof to the contrary. Yet you never do. The silence is deafening .
If those words were coming from somebody that in my opinion deserves to be called a man even a little bit I would give them some weight. Considering they are coming from one of the most pitiful excuses for waste of an oxygen I have ever seen they are nothing but good example of what phrase "garbage in garbage out" means.
Yes a lovely shot taken from the top of the Cable Car but ...
Yes, I noticed the small print too but I think I've decided they are shots from the x100. If you go to the fuji website under gallery there is one called world of x100 (not the samples gallery). The same unprocessed photos from the brochure are there. I don't believe that they would post shots from a different camera on their website for the x100. Moreover, at the x100 website there is no disclaimer.
As does a smaller aperture.
