Great for balancing landscapes.
If you like to include the sun in your photos, take photos that have a wide exposure latitude or enjoy landscape photography, these filters are essential for getting the most out of your image.
While most Cokin filter effects can be added in post production, the gradient ND system brings back the skies to digital shooters by bringing the skies and foreground closer together in exposure. No longer do you need to choose between perfect skies and underexposed subjects or perfect subjects and blown out skies.
The device mounts on an adapter ring (not included) that is sized for the threads on your lens. From there it clicks into place and can be rotated easily for your shooting style. Drop in one of the three Gradient ND filters included in this set and it can be slid up and down and rotated to match your scene.
Be sure to get yourself a Cokin P lens cap to protect your filters when hiking from spot to spot.

Really helps even out the dynamic range between the sky and landscape to help preserve highlights in the sky and shadow in the landscape.

I have been making colorful sunsets and panoramics from bland washed out flat color photos

The kit is a great value! Very easy and intuitive to use. can be used with or without the supllied holder. love the results! Can't wait to see what it does for the Key West sunsets on vacation next week! The only thing I am not crazy about is the cases are quite thick compared to the filters so they flop around and tale up alot of space in the camera bag, but for the results I certainly can live with that, or buy a filter wallet.
