A question about my 10 Stop Filter

[DTS]

ah well its cheap and ive managed to get a half decent result until i can afford or decide to bother waiting for a big stopper - i have tried three other images and they work out ok after the same tweaks

The original hitech isn't very good from the research i've done. It would have probably been cheaper and got better results from the haida.

I think your right.

Ive sent a message to the seller to explain im not entirely happy and that the warning "PLEASE NOTE - THIS FILTER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHY." should have been in the add

Update - They have agreed for me to return for a refund

The colour problem is infrared interference. You can't get rid of it.

Ah, thanks - that makes sense. I had actually tried a B&W conversion on it and it looked pretty good.

following gridlocks advice above i cam up with this - i'd say its done a brilliant job of correcting the shot. Having seen the scene (thats a mouthful - even in my head ) that the shot is damn near a perfect match on the actual image the camera should have captured.

You did a very nice job of that.

Thanks pal - i spent a long time getting the green right in the grass, slightest bit out and it looked a little artificial for my liking

Picked up the Haida as mentioned on this thread: dead impressed. No real colour cast, just a certain coolness.

Lots of good info in this thread, thanks all.
