Or should I title this "Not so Neutral Density Filters" as both these have quite a colour cast
I'm sure I am not alone in being disappointed to find when using Cokin filters or the rip off versions from ebay and other sources, have quite a magenta colour cast, under some lighting conditions. They are even worse if you stack several together in the filter holder, making it almost impossible to get a natural look without spending a lot of time editing.
So the first lesson I learnt was to only use one at a time and I have to say they are serving me well, giving some very nice results.
I couldnt help but wonder though if there was something better out there for the budget restricted (must remember that term) photographer, as the likes of Lee Filters are far beyond my means at present.
After a bit of research, I was seeing quite a bit of positive info on Kood filters, which instead of erring toward magenta, had more of a cyan tint to them. If nothing else it would enable me to put a bit of blue into the grey skies which seem to have become a fixed feature around here :~)
I found a supplier from Wales via ebay which seemed to be the cheapest and included postage too. To my complete surprise it arrived the following day, a little under 24 hours from making the purchase. Seemed like the gods were on my side for a change, just a shame it didnt come with some decent weather in the package. Seriously though, excellent service and if anybody wants their details, just message me.
So it was up before dawn the following morning for a walk along the canal at my faourite time of day, to try a few test shots. No wonderful light or mist to play with though, just uniform grey skies again. Not that it was going to stop me having a play and trying some comparisons between the filters.
Now you will have to excuse the shots here, I never intended to post them side by side like this, so they dont line up correctly. It was only yesterday having a bit of a discussion on colour casts and white balance that triggered the idea to show both like this.
The shots have not had any processing, just a straight convertion from RAW to JPG, sort of lined up and then resized to a more manageable size for posting here.
Camera settings were the same for both shots
White Balance - Cloudy ~6000k
30 sec exposure with the aid of a variable neutral density filter at approx 6 stops
f16 @ 100 ISO
18mm focal length on a 18-55 kit lens to check for vignetting (very slight in top corners)
Well I hope you were not expecting any conclussions, it is far too early to tell which are better under what conditions. I'm sure I will use both and over time may develop a preference for one over the other, but I'm afraid you will have to keep checking back for that :~)
