Using filters is a time-honored practice in photography. While many filters from the days of film are no longer relevant, there are many effects that are unachievable without the use of filters, even in the modern digital age! And these effects produce some of the most stunning results! During this seminar class, we will discuss the different types of filters available for creative photography. We will also go over when and why you should use them and review how to use them. We will cover polarizing filters, neutral density filters, soft and hard-edge graduated filters, close-up filters and more! We will demonstrate with these varieties of filters, with ND and Polarizing filters courtesy of Benro filters.
