Graduated Neutral Density Filter @ jessespeer.com


that's a ND filter with an edumacation


Quote ... After using graduated ND filters in the field for years, I am now relying solely on this digital darkroom technique to achieve the same results. My bag is a little lighter. I don't have any filters to lose, scratch or fumble with in winter. I can work faster in the field. I have more control over final image quality, which is not reduced by the use of straight-edged filters.

I find that this technique is generally usable for exposures that differ by two or three stops at most. If you try to push the range any further, an unnatural looking image may be the result.

... another fine EDIT THIS resource



... edumacate me

there are a few filters out there that replicate ND and polariser filters too - the 55mm set in particular from DigitalFilm Tools is very good. I'm guessing though that the whole point of filters in the first place is that you dont have bother with all this post work as a result :-)

Anyone looking for a set of Lee GND soft filters throw me a PM.
