Originally posted by Softsoap I am new to the DSL world. I have some questions in reguards to the filters. Now, Should I use them only for out side shots? Or, would you also use the UV filters for inside shots??
So far i just have 52mm and a 58mm Nikura optics filters.
Most of the time you would not need to use the more commonly purchased filters indoors, however there are as always in photography some magical effects to be had by using filters if you think out side of the box.
look at what are available for your lenses and think what effect they might have indoors, re. warming and cooling colour filters immediately come to mind as well as the star burst type etc etc,
always remember there is much more satisfaction in getting an affect "in camera" rather than in some software application afterwards.
as my better half once said any one [well she was not quite that polite] can use a mouse, but it takes imagination to use a filter"
