Hi,

I have started to learn more about landscape photography and have started experimenting with long exposures on my local beach mostly at sunrise. I have some round screw ND filters which I use to make the water all misty and smooth however the sky is always blown out. I know now that I require some graduated ND filters where I can move the filter up/down accordingly with the horizon however don't know what size holder to get: P series, z or x pro.

I have a canon 700d that I use with my 18-55 lens. I am thinking of getting the 10-18mm in the future if it makes a difference to the size of the holder I require.

I just need to know what size filter holder to get as I read that some can cause vignetting on wide angle lens.

Has anyone had any experience with these holders with a similar camera set up?

many thanks

Welcome to DP Review,

As indicated by Perry, the Cokin P system is a great option when using graduated ND filters. I've used this system for quite a few years when shooting landscapes and must say they never disappoint. Another valid point also made by Perry is the Lee filters can can quite costly so you may want to consider the Cokin filters if you're on a budget. They're less expensive and work great.

Well said Kreyg! Sorry I forgot to say the Welcome word to OP.

Had a good look at your wonderfull pictures and blog. Very inspiring! Will return frequently.

Kind Regards Perry

No worries Perry. We're all family here. Brothers and sisters.
