Part two to my mini Photo Haul: Vivitar Multi-Coated Filter Kit!
Being completely honest, I don't remember the real reason for buying this. I never had a particular desire to have filters...
The filters came in a little wallet/pouch thing.
Each filter had it's own slot and it was a nice fit. Not too tight or too loose, just enough space for me to take the lens out quickly without worrying that it would fall out.
FLD Florescent Filter Allows for using your camera under florescent lighting giving you natural light colors when shooting under florescent conditions |
I have never had a problem taking pictures under florescent lights. In the example picture on the box, it showed that without the FLD filter, the picture would be dark and purple....and that doesn't make sense to me. I don't know...I don't think I'll be using this filter for it's purpose.. I'll probably use it for more artistic shots. I mean, who doesn't like pretty purple pictures? xD
UV Protective Filter Removes or absorbs ultra violet rays, giving sharper contrast to your film or video. Protects your lens from scratches or fingerprints. |
I'm not sure how I feel about this filter. I just keep it on my camera because it's clear and it's supposed to protect my lens..anything to keep from damaging my Nikon even more It doesn't make much of a difference in how the image comes out...unless I'm using this wrong..
CPL Circular Polarizer Filter Increases color saturation, darker blue skies so white clouds stand out, and eliminate reflections from nonmetallic surface like glass or water. |
Out of the three filters, I think I liked this one the best. I like the color enhancing effect it has. But I don't think I'd use this will all my shots. I don't like the darkening feature too much. It's nice for some pictures, but I just prefer bright pictures.
I honestly don't know enough about my camera to use these filters to their fullest abilities ㅠㅠ But! I'll try my best to use these filters as much as I can. I will not let the $14.99 I spent on these go to waste!!
......
But really. I really need to study photography more... ㅠㅠ
