The Rodenstock center ND for the Grandagon-N 4.5/90 is even larger, with a 112mm outer thread. I therefore never use additional filters with it. Doing so would require the 150mm Lee filters, and their XXL filter holder. That or blu tack/sellotape the filters in place onto the center ND; hardly elegant or reliable.

Thank you, Alan. I dont use center filter with 90mm lenses on 4x5 cameras. The vignette is small enough to ignore it on the slide. And it is easily corrected on print or in Photoshop on the bnw negative.

Fabulous
The real print must look amazing in real life.

This is just lovely.
The tones are amazing.

Very fine, Simon.An unusual composition, it works very well and conveys a cold feeling.

Thank you both. It was a very special afternoon in the archipelago. Snow and wind between proper blizzards. Calm and chaotic at the same time

Not simple, but fun! How does it work? I have the Schneider Super Angulon 90mm.

When I use my 75mm or 90 mm, especially with slide film, the center is always 2 or 3 stops brighter. Pita to correct.
