[QUOTE="hark, post: 178502, member: 13196"] Be sure to look closely at any you are considering. Some have a gradient effect so the the light areas blend naturally into the dark while others offer an abrupt line between the light and dark areas of the filter. The gradient type is the better one to own. In the link I provided earlier, there are also two types of filters: the kind that screw onto the front of your lens and the square kind such as Cokin and Lee.
