Cokin ND1024 10 Stop Filter

[stevedevil]

Being back in the Forum (again) I started looking through the Hard Drive(s) at some landscape's I have taken over the years, and loved to get long timed exposures of flowing water, but sometimes struggled to get a "Long Exposure" even with a couple of ND filters on the front, as still only equivalent to ND6 so 3 stops.

So found myself in Youtube and looking at the Cokin ND1024 10 stop filter, and thought wow to some of the images with it, so being the festive time of year, Santa has got me one  

Cant wait to get some results with it, also as just ordered some Ilford B&W Film for the EOS5 that is alive again,

Hope to get out over the break, if I can with all the restrictions

Earlier this year I bought a Cokin P Nuances 10-Stops ND1024 Square Filter just in time for the March lockdown. Oddly enough I bought some Kentmere B&W film for my EOS300 a few weeks back.

Glad to hear it, Still love shooting film, unfortunately my EOS5 has issues with the Mode Select Dial, its booked in for a new one in January Next Year, as would not power up, BUT today it burst into life, so Film ordered to throw in her and hope she behaves over Christmas.

Will take the EOS5 with B&W film with me, as like pushing the film, saves on filters lol

Sounds like you and Ryewolf and are joining JamesT on rediscovering the joys of black and white film photography... James has been an  avid devotee for as long I  remember here on the Forum so I look forward to see the results of this retrospective endeavour  with interest Steve ....

I recently bought a variable 3 to 11 stop filter.  Have been pleasantly surprised.  Makes it so easy to compose a shot and mount the filter. I can set the ISO and aperture then slowly turn the thread until I get the shutter speed I want.  Very little faffing and only one filter to carry.

Im old school really, so take 15 camera bags, 2 tripods, a partridge in a pear tree lol

Only have a few filters, ND 2 & 4, and Gradiant 2 & 4, so can get 1,2 & 3 stops with them altogether so the ND1024 at 10 stops will be fun to have a play with

Have you got a link for that or a photo?

Look on Amazon for K&F Concept Variable ND filter.

I tend to stick to the B/W standards: Yellow, Orange, Red & Green, C/P and an IR720 if I've got IR film (usually only for medium & large formats).

Need a few lessons JamesT

I have 2 Cokin 100mm Nuances filters and I can honestly say these the best very neutral nd filters I have ever used...no colour cast at all a d with them being glass, the clarity is outstanding.
