Is anyone else using the Big Stopper or any other heavy ND filter?
I'm still trying to get the hang of metering for it. As near as I can figure, contrast is increased. Precise metering is critical and it seems to limit the range. I metered f32.3 (1/60 sec) on the building and water. The sky was plus 2 stops. The image on the right is per metering. The image on the left is with the 10 stop ND filter. I figured 16 seconds which, with reciprocity failure correction, is about 52 seconds. If I correct for 1 stop, the images seem to match well. I'll consider treating the Big Stopper as 11 stops for the next experiment.
Has anyone else been through this yet?
