ND Filters - Solid or Graduated

(1/5) > >>

Moody Blues:
For those of you who shoot landscapes with a large stop difference between earth and sky (dawn and dusk); do you like to use graduated or solid ND Filters?

neuroanatomist:
Solid ND isn't much help in the scenario you describe - a grad ND would be needed.

charlesa:
Hard or soft graduated ND is what you need for that dynamic range, depending on whether the demarcation is straight (hard grad) or not (soft grad). An ND would be needed if contemplating long exposures.

Moody Blues:
Thanks for the replies. I am going to grab the Lee Filter 4X6 hard and soft ND Filter Kits. Now if I can just find the base holder.

friedmud:
You won't be disappointed with those Lee filters... provided you can find them and the base!

I personally shoot with soft lee ND grads.  I'm usually shooting mountains so had ND grads aren't the way to go (don want dark lines running across the tips of your mountains!
