Yes
Got this from another thread... 10 stop filter

How would you use it and what effect does it have on the picture?

Ultra long shutter speed....

Blurred clouds and water...

Lovely effect when done right...
 
Better off using a B+W ND110 screw in filter or a LEE Big Stopper rather than a cheap bit of welding glass, welding glass can give wrong colour casts like GREEN.
 
That looks like a piece of welding glass - same effect as above, mega cheap but ultra green :eek:

Quite a few threads here on using welding glass, and also the custom filters from B+W, Heliopan, LCW, Hoya, Lee etc.
 
so you can get a clearer cloud image whilst leaving the lens open for longer?

With the exception that both filters you mention are £90+, and welding glass is £2 :thumbs:

Noooo, mine was £56 (67mm) INC p+p from Robert White Photographic, expensive for a filter agreed, but i'd rather have the real McCoy.
Can the green cast be corrected in PS ?

I just did a quick grab of prices, and they varied from £90 - £110, I'm sure they're available cheaper...

But I do appreciate that a dedicated filter is going to be better than a peice of welding glass! I'm also one for spending as much as possible (too much) on filters.
 
You can correct the wb using a custom setting in camera so you get the right colour with the welding glass on and you have to do little or no pp
 
aaaah, buying some equipment without either realising what it does or whether you actually need it.

Clouds and water move. Strap that to the front and you can leave your shutter open for a much longer amount of time, without overexposing. The moving clouds/water have a lovely, misty effect to them. Basically. If you like that sort of thing.
