Calm before the Storm

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to use my new Lee seven5 filter set (they were purchased from 2fillter.com.  I’ve never used graduate filters before and in the past it was difficult with the M9 because looking through the viewfinder would not help in lining up the graduated filter to where you wanted them.  With the M (240) this can easily be accomplished with either the live view of the LCD or EVF.  Here is a link to Lee’s website if you are interested in looking at them.  Also, I want to give a huge thanks to Byron Beer of Australia who has given me a lot of useful information on how to best utilize these filters.

P.S.  In the coming days I hope to post more pictures and give a small review on these filters.
