Hi all I currently have a cokin P filter system and I have an ND8 filter but I sometimes want a longer exposure but don't really want to go higher than f11 at I SO100 what are my options apart from changing my filter system to a Lee filter setup as I can't justify that sort of expense at this time

Re: options for longer exposures
Hi Paul, not any actual experience of these but I did see this review http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk...d-filters-9470 which although limiting you to a screw in filter it might be a solutionAndrew

Re: options for longer exposures
I've got an ND10 Paul and whilst I've not used it yet its blacker than black and will certainly give you the longer exposures you want:- Ian

Re: options for longer exposures
You could underexpose your images by increasing the shutter speed and bring them back to a "normal" exposure when editing? Obviously this isn't ideal and you will lose detail. That's the only thing I can think of other than purchasing another filter, or combining your existing filters together.Within in my Billingham Hadley Large: Canon EOS 550D [Gripped], EF 50mm f/1.8, EF 85mm f/1.8 USM, Tamron 18-270mm Di II VC PZD, EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM, Kenko Teleplus DG AF Extension Tubes [36+20+12] and Speedlite EX430 II.
Redundant: EF-S 18-55mm lens f/3.5-5.6 IS II and EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS

Re: options for longer exposures
Thanks everyone I don't mind buying another filter as long as I can keep the filter system as the cokin filters are not too expensive I will look at the ND10 filters thanks for your comments and suggestions1Dmk2, Canon 70-200 f4 L Non-IS & a borrowed canon 28mm

Re: options for longer exposures
Why not experiment with a piece of welding glass just cut it to size to fit in your cokin adapter should be a cheap option which you can buy from your local industrial supplies store. I know it will give you a green cast which is easily removed in photoshop etc and is as good as using a lee big stopper (almost)Alex
