A few weeks back, my variable ND filter arrived - from 2-8 stops (near pitch black!) of density. As someone constantly playing with light during sessions, I\'ve found it awesome so far. Samples/info posted here because I know my wedding peeps are the ones who keep asking me about it.
Pros: It\'s awesome.
Cons: Vignetting/difficult to focus with more stops gobbled up. Not for the n00b of outdoor lighting, as it adds another sometimes confusing variable.
f/2.8 1/180 ISO 100 in broad daylight.
f/2.8 1/180 ISO 50 in harsh noonday sun. Vignetting is natural (didn\'t bother to adjust in post for samples\' sake)
