Question about filters

Disregard Tiffen and acquire Heliopan.

omnidataDisregard Tiffen and acquire Heliopan.

Would be great if you could give me a reason why instead of such a broad statement

Made in Germany with precision, and we all know that's the best kind of precision.
Brass frame instead of aluminium. (stronger and doesn't bind as much to the lens)
Use Schott AG glass (same as Zeiss uses for their sexy lenses)
Better quality control.
Screw threads that are actually machined correctly.

If it's too much, get a B+W.

Also a Tiffen will most definitely work. But if you want the best that will outlast you and your future great grandchildren get a Heliopan.

Well i will take that advice into consideration, but my question was more directed towards the density I should get. Thanks

I'd say .9 just cause it'll be close enough, I just feel like the 1.2 might be too much and its easier to stop up to like f10 if its really needed versus not being able to hit f8. Idk that might not make sense but yeah.

yeah I see what your saying. But i think id rather stop down than stop up.

Depends on what you want to shoot of course. A two or three stop is most versatile.
