Too Many Lenses Do This...Camera Filters For Landscape Photography

Kase Canada：kasefilterscanada.com/collect...

I keep receiving the same question "What filters do you use and why?". I decided to show you exactly which filters I use, why, and how I use them for landscape photography.
I perform a couple of little tricks every time I use these filters, and I reckon you'll benefit from learning exactly how I do this. It's fun and your images will look better for it.
I take you out to a local waterfall to demonstrate my techniques in sunny and rainy conditions. I also manage to capture a beautiful waterfall image using the KASE KW Revolution filter kit.
Amanda and I demonstrate how to advertize to the world that you're a landscape photographer. If you don't have a pair of two-tone pants this method is a surefire way of flexing your filters.
Marvel at my 'reflection bracketing' technique to help you capture the most beautiful elements in your compositions.
We take a detailed look at my RAW files to see how these filters perform for waterfall images. Not only does the CPL give me total control of the glare and reflections in my image but the ND8 enables me to dial in the perfect shutter speed at the perfect aperture for sharpness.
Will you spot my continuity error and why won't I allow a side profile of my carriage? Will Amanda carry the camera bag of her gibbled husband and why are my ribs broken anyway?
There's really only one way to find out.

I just switched from Nikon D850's to a Nikon Z8. I also bought these filters about a month ago to go with my new camera. They are impressive. When this video started, I figured it would be of no benefit believing is was just a review of the product I already purchased and liked. Watching until the end, I cannot believe how wrong I was in my thinking. I never thought of blending images like you discussed in this video. I was pleasantly surprised by your thought process of blending. I am just learning Photoshop so this video came at the right time.

Good instruction on the polarizing filter, Gavin. I took a trip to the Smokies in March 2012 to photograph waterfalls. I was so adamant about my polarizer that I threatened to have it welded to my lens. It rained every afternoon about 1500 hrs (Mickey's long arm is scratching his head and his left arm is sticking straight out to the left) and the polarizer turned in some beautiful images that would have lost with it. I'm a believer!

@bartjes2509 23 сағат бұрын

Nice, thanks for sharing. Best to choose the biggest filter thread your (future) lens had and use step-up rings when your lens filtersizes vary. Choosing one size up might reduce vignet at wide angles but no lenshood possible. CPL is kind of a must have. ND depends a but of the fastest ISO your camera can shoot at. ND32 or ND64 works best for me for me, ND1000 for really long exposures. Finally, threaded filters can get stuck on each other, magnetic is much more convenient. Cheers, Bart

Hi Gavin thanks for the video I too love using a cpl filter it makes such a difference in Richness to the composition,my cpl filter is always attached to my sigma 18-35 art lens

@erikswenson2659 Күн бұрын

Great idea to shoot pics with polarizer at multiple angles, so that you can blend later. I expect you know this, but for the benefit of your audience, I would point out that there is no way to turn a polarizing filter on or off. If the filter is on, the polarizer is selectively excluding light polarized at certain angles. Rotating the filter just changes the direction of polarization admitted to the camera lens. If you try to use a polarizing filter on a superwide angle lens and shoot the sky, you'll see that the filter seems to be more "on" in some directions than others. If shooting scenes with reflected glare coming from planar surfaces at different angles, you can see the polarizer affecting the glare differently from the different planes as you rotate the filter, but it won't cut the glare from all the surfaces equally at any one angle. Using your take mulitple shots with the polarizer rotated between shots, would be a great way to be able to cut glare from all directions by doing a little blending. Finally, sometimes it comes in handy to be able to increase the reflections. Where there is polarized light present, rotating a polarizing filter does not go from no effect to no glare, it actually goes from increased glare, to neutral, decreased glare. If you are photographing a street scene and want to increase reflections of the street in a store window, this can be done by using a polarizing filter. It is not just for being able to cut down on the reflections and see into the store better.

@msmith2016 17 сағат бұрын

Another use case (Kase?) to consider - Kase makes adapters and inlaid rings so that I could adapt my existing filters to a magnetic mount. As I buy new filters I will get magnetic ones. I do most of my nature photography from a kayak and can't be faffing about screwing filters on.

@deanimator 7 сағат бұрын

One thing about the Kase filters I haven't seen mentioned often...they are pretty hard to break. Nothing ruins your day like dropping a 100 buck piece of glass and seeing it shatter. Dropped a few Kase filters onto rocks and NOTHING happened to them...not even a scratch. So far anyway. Very good glass. Yep...spotted the wardrobe change..haha

@PhotoTrekr Күн бұрын

I love the idea of magnetic filters. In fact , years ago, I bought a set of magnetic rings that could be used with any brand of filter as long as it matched the size of the lens. Can't remember why I stopped using them. Probably because I had ND and CPL filters in lots of sizes. I still use Zeiss T* filters on my full frame Sony lenses. And see no reason to change at this time. But, Kase must be good if you and other photographers use them.

@hugoparente1908 Күн бұрын

Hi Gavin, a few years ago I felt the need to look like a landscape photographer and bought the first version of Kase magnetic filters. They came in a very masculine leather box, nothing like this one for girls. Anyway, the moment you seemed like a true landscape photographer to me, was when you tried to put the lens hood over the filters, with the same diameter as the lens... with the aim of having them at 16 mm. .. That's when we understand that we have to make mistakes and learn, that to photograph with more than one stack filter at 16mm the ideal is to have at least one size larger than the lens diameter, and it may not even be enough. If you want to use more than one filter, forget the hood for ultra-angle lenses. I'll try to buy waterproof pants next time.

@bv42 Күн бұрын

I use the same set of Kase filters, and the lens hood for the 82mm lens does indeed fit. But for other lenses with smaller diameters, I had the choice of getting additional sets of filters ($$?$$) or buying step-up rings which allow me to use the same set of filters for all my lenses. Of course, I chose the latter option and said goodbye to the lens hoods for those lenses. Now, each lens has the appropriate step-up ring (to accommodate the 82mm filters) and a Kase lens cap. Works great, but I will admit to being just a bit more careful with lens and camera handling, even 15 months after getting the Kase system.

Pretty sure the continuity issue was near the beginning. At about 2:48 you show Amanda going down the trail in front of you, and then by 22:52 the camera is pointing towards you, she is behind you, and you are only about 50 feet down the trail from the parking lot. Must have screwed up a bit during edit I imagine. Great video as always. I always enjoy the British humor in your videos.

Amanda went from red to blue, and them maybe to pink, so I assume you filmed on consecutive days. I have always used the circular polarizer as by main go-to filter as a landscape photographer. At one time, my red filter was my main go-to filter when I shot black and white film. Still have that little filter. (probably 45-50mm) I think that 1/5 of a second is perfect for flowing water, so your ND filter can come in handy as well.

I have buy alot of difrent filter brands from the cheepest to the expensive ones over the years and my tip is by Kase filters you can by the standard set of them and you dont be disipointed . Not the cheapest but not the most expensive filters either. And of course there are cheap filters, but then you also have to count on light effects in the lens because there is usually a reason why they are cheap. So it is better to save up for eg Kase Filter or Nisi filter, they are also good filters

I used to do urbex photography and I found a geared head very useful for that. I use a Benro GD-3WH, and for the money, it’s been awesome. I shot full-frame when I got it, but it even handles my GFX100 without any issues. The Arca-Swiss is of course the top end but it has a price to match, and I’ve heard from more than one source that they can be on the delicate side and prone to breakage if treated roughly. The only time I miss a ballhead is if I encounter wildlife; it’s a non-starter for that. My fiance got me your new book the other day, and it’s even better than your first one - nice work!

Did you swap with Chris (10:05 Hiking in Newfoundland - Chance Cove) and his green backpack with yellow harness? 😂 The other week you had the blue one that comes with the ladies harness, did you find that more comfortable? I got the waist extender for my 30L. I’m like you in that I like to use lens hoods. The problem I found, and you proved, is Kase, and others, recommend going up a size with wide angle lenses. That then means the hood no longer fits. It was interesting to see how much of an impact that was for Kase filters in your video, thanks.

Super educational video. Perhaps I could ask a question...Polarizers work by attenuating light waves that are askew to the axis of polarization. This works well when there is a single point source of illumination (the sun). Point light sources are highly directional, so using a polarizer to remove reflections makes sense as a refection of a highly directional light is also directional. What seems a bit odd to me is their positive effect on rainy days where the sun's light has been diffused by the cloud layer, removing all directionality. I suppose light that is reflected from a surface must be definition be "directional" relative to the observer, so perhaps that is the answer as to why polarizers are also good in cloudy conditions, but can you confirm? Thank you in advance for your help. PS, Love your videos...

I don't see how it can remove all directionality as even on overcast days there's always a shadow (no matter how soft) in one direction or another. Also, light bounces off anything that will reflect it. But what do I know, I just take pretty pictures.

@@fototripper Thank you so much for your thoughts. It must be 45 years since I last visited Nova Scotia and I have been anxious to make a return trip for a photo adventure. I'll let you know if I can get the wife to approve a visit and will try to schedule something with you that is convenient for both of us. All the best.

I am awaiting delivery of a K&F Concepts magnetic CPL. They cost a lot less and I've seen many reviews that show you can't tell the difference from Kase filters. Maybe you could do a comparison? I love to save money. Cheers!

why not using the autofocus on such fancy cameras? Most of the technical progress in cameras in recent years have been on the focus side, why not use it? Perhaps a video on why you use manual focus?

Because I trust my eyes more than Sonys contrast detection.

Going down the stairs at 04:20, Amanda is wearing glasses that she was not wearing earlier. And then, she magically changed from a gray sweatshirt to a pink shirt with blue jacket. 😎
