If you could only have two filters...

[Scott WRG Editor]

what would they be?

 

[Alison]

Polarizer, IR

 

[Karalee]

I only have 2 filters.

Polarizer and UV.

 

[Scurra]

I only have 2 filters as well. 2 UV's one for each lens. I really just have them as lens protectors.

I only have two as well. Well, I have three, but I've only bought two. One came with a lens. So the two filters... A circular polarizer and an ND4.

 

[ksmattfish]

Polarizer
Red #25

 

[miamiglen]

My two top choices are a yellow/green for B/W film and FX1 (soft focus) for color portraits

 

[malachite]

Polarizer
Red #25

That would be my pick as well. And if we could only have 3 I'd add yellow as that's all I really ever use at all anymore.

 

[Walt]

Circ. polarizer and...wait, no, ahhh...how about...?

 

[mentos_007]

IR and polarizer in my opinion

 

[Scott WRG Editor]

Well I guess a polarizer is a universal choice. I'm assuming that with didgital my 80A filter is no longer needed (youwhite balance dig correct?)

I'm planning on picking up a circular polarizer and a UV filter for each lens. What is an IR filter? Infra-Red? How does that work?

 

[jadin]

Polarizer, and macro coupler ring!

Muhahaha! It's a filter! No really!

Take a look at this page. It's geared towards digital to.

Yellow would be pick #3 for me as well. I use one much more often than the #25, but I could live without it if I had to. I don't use the pol or #25 as much, but when I do they are indespensible.
