I have been reading a lot on GND filters as of late and I want to give them a try but as I am only trying I don't want to spend the earth.
From what I have read on here the cheap but effective setup seems to be a Cokin P series Wide filter holder (for my 77mm lens) and some Hitech hard/soft filter sets (hitech are true ND and no colour effect).
My questions are:
1. Is this all I need to get going?
- Cokin P series Wide filter holder
- Hitech Filter 85 set hard or soft
- Cokin adapter for my size of lens to holder
2. With the Cokin filter holder once it is attached to the lens and you have your filter in. Can you rotate it?
3. Is there a good reputable UK based online dealer that does both the Cokin holder and the Hitech filters? The only places I have found either stock one or the other and I would rather get both from the same place.
I understand the Lee filter setups are of a much higher standard and if I like what GND has to offer I may go down this path in the future. For the time being I just want a setup that works.
Thanks
