When I use an ND grad filter for some reason I get a red tint to the photos in the area of the ND grey especially when I do longer exposures. Can anyone help?
it is definitely a cokin ND giving a magenta cast. And thanks for all the replies I am guessing if you buy cheap then this happens Oh well Guess I can't do anything about it other than buy better ones
hitech ones are only about £30 ex vat for a set (0.3, .06, 0.9) or £12 each - available only from teamworks in the uk i believe.
Not sure how to do a link, but a google will take you to them...
Hitech filters are made by Formatt Filters, who are very friendly people to deal with, and bent over backwards to help me out when I was in a rush for a few bits. Not sure how to do a link, but a google will take you to them...
Cool, this thread just answered a bunch of questions for me
I can't afford the Lee's but didn't want the casts (film) of the cokin's - looks like hitech is the way to go!
Would people recomend a soft or hard grad set? I know it depends on usage and I'd say my major use would be landscapes, I'd like to tone down the sky and bring ot the foreground. I'd also like to use them for shooting sunsets as I've tried a few and felt limited in waht I could capture without a filter.
Any help much appreciated!

Holy Thread revivial batman!
Sorry to drag this up from the grave but the thread covers everything I want to know apart from one thing!

Does anyone have a link to the Hitech range guide, preferably with pictures?
yup messiah - A friend is on lee's - very expensive kit but the quality of the glass is just stunning. I'm using Hi-Techs - very good and excellent value for money - i feel a little safer to use them. If i'd spent £120 on a lee ND grad set i wouldn't feel that id be able to use them freely without permanently worrying about scratching or breaking one.
Do you still use a polarized filter with nd grad filters.
