Hi all

before you ask, yes I have used the search button and yes I did read them all, but although very helpful and now I understand these filters a lot more, I need some advice


My camera skills are very limited, I normally use "Aperture priority" or "Shutter Priority" modes on my Nikon D7000

with that in mind, I have a trip of a lifetime coming up in 3 months, and I want to make the most of it of what I can with my camera skills (or lack of)

2 weeks in America with a wedding in the middle at the Grand Canyon.


Do you think it is worth me purchasing a CPL with my lack of skill ?
CPLs seem to be one of the best filters to purchase, but unsure if it will suit my needs

lens is a 67mm

thanks
 
thanks guys, D.P. I know your a photographer so if you agree with the other poster, that's good enough for me

bit lost on purchasing one though, Jessops have a Hoya on offer at the moment for £55, but the purple people have the same one ( I think) for £25

not really sure what to get...
 
thanks nonamenonumber

I do have one of those adaptors that you can put the square filters in (got for xmas a few years back, but never used it)

I presume you know what a CPL is for and how to use one?

I am fairly sure I do yes, they are like sunglasses, stops some light & reflections getting in, you rotate a dial to the desired point you want, and with the sun at around 90 degrees from you
 
before I place an order for one of these, do they came with some sort of case, or if not, can you recommend me one for traveling?

Thanks
