Some if the art filters are quite good actually. Dramatic tone works well under cloudy skies. One thing to make sure you do is to turn on the 1/8 second shutter delay to reduce shutter shock. That will ensure better clarity at low shutter speeds. I've used the soft focus art filter on portraits and the sunset filter on Autumn foliage. Indoors I often set white balance manually for mixed lighting. The jpegs have a lot of latitude when it comes to PP so I leave the settings to default. If you change your mind about using the filters shoot in raw plus jpeg and use the bracketing feature for Art Filters. You will have at least the RAW file if you don't like the filter effects. Its listed in the Art filter menu. I don't use them a lot but its fun to play with. Sometimes the results are surprising.
