After playing around with the welding glass it got me searching for a CHEAP filter that I could harvest to create a more solid welding glass filter.
And I came across loads of ND filters (Going up to 8) for peanuts.
See link here....
The list of 'pros' as I see it:
The optical quality of these cannot be any worse than the welding glass
They apparently do not affect the colour balance (unlike the welding glass!)
They are easier to use (just screw on)
Pretty cheap.
Would a ND8 be rubbish for long exposures in the daytime? I suppose you could stack a couple ND filters to get to ND10.
Is there a reason why no-one uses these E-bay cheapies to see if they really like the idea of ND's before taking the plunge and buying properly?
