| I'm the same Alexyga, Large format photographers never put filters on their lenses (excepting centre ND grads to counter heavy vignetting on extreme wide angle lenses) neither do medium format photographers, it seems to be a 35mm photographer phobia of getting fingers on their lenses..besides the lens selection I use there are some of the sharpest lenses ever made...the last thing I want is for a filter to make a mess of it all.
Sure, I'll use polarisers, but I don't leave them on any of my lenses..I don't like rely on them to make an image 'work'...or overuse them like so many photographers these days do. I only occasionally use grads, and the ones I use are premium filters made my Lee. Who use the highest quality coated optical glass in their filters, I don't trust cokin. |
