Its a bright sunny day and their is lots of snow on the ground thus it being really really bright. Is their a certain lens I should get for my k-3 for it to look less bright, or is that all in the film?

Will Vincent 10-31-2005, 05:42 PM Throw an ND (Neutral-Density) Filter on there, and stop down a bit and it will be darker.. you could also use other filters, depending on the look you're going for, but to simply darken it, stop down (close the iris) and use ND filter(s).

Will Vincent 11-01-2005, 01:50 AM Likely any 'pro' camera shop should carry filters in the size that will work with your camera.. (bring it in when you go to look, that way you can also get an idea of how it changes the image by looking through the viewfinder) Herb Montes 11-01-2005, 07:59 AM The K3 is usually sold with a set of filters. One of them is a neutral density. The Meteor zoom that is shipped with the camera uses 77mm thread filters. Reg 11-02-2005, 11:29 PM sounds good, thanks for the help :P |
