Thanks for the replies. So far, great info! I have a few more questions though:
"Graduated ND filters are used for those scenes when you either have a dark foreground and a well exposed sky or a blown out sky and a well exposed foreground. "
- Do you mean in an "either-or" circumstances or one graduated ND filter can be used for both circumstances?
"It's more convenient to use rectangular filters for these situations because you aren't limited to framing the horizon in the center of the image. "
- I am lost here, what is a rectangular filter? how does it fit onto my lens?
- What do multicoated filters do in addition to the Graduated ND filters and ND filters?
- Also, sometimes when i read lens-reviews, there is mention of the front element rotating when focusing, therefore a polarizer is not good/functionble/recommended.....why is that? And by "polarizer" does this include graduated ND filters and ND filters?
