I've been using nisi filters for about 3 years now and am super happy with these. Only have had one casualty over the years and replaced it with the same nisi grad.
@@TheJohnLyons one of the advantages of mirrorless. Looks like Lyle uses a dslr. A 15 stop on a dslr would be impossible. One of the benefits of magnetic filters is they are easy to remove and replace, but mirrorless helps a lot. At some point focus will suffer on mirrorless as light is reduced and some camera are better than others
I made a waterfall long exposure shot, and reached that time border (for that, was 4 seconds) in which it doesn't matter how much longer you expose, you keep getting more of the same.
6 stop had quite a bit of colour cast in the comparison photo. Liked the considered approach to the shape/movement. Would have liked to see a 2 stop soft grad on the sky and a B&W treatment to the images, would have looked nice.
@@EliaLocardi Nice, look forward to seeing it. I've just bought 2 GFX100s' for our studio at work. Really looking forward to seeing how they go. Been thinking of getting one for my personal work too!
Ok, so this video was a paid sponsorship by NISI. The big advantage of screw in round ND filters is the use of vari ND. If you shoot video you will already know how vari ND is used to keep your shutter speed in the speet spot in changing light conditions. If you follow the bride and groom from the car to inside the church, you will be tweeking the vari ND as you walk. In that scene you might be shooting 50mm f1.2 (wedding dof), a vari nd (bright sunshine and f1.2), prehaps 60th sec shutter, and varying the nd to keep the iso in the range you want, whilst preventing blowouts. Follow the bride and groom into the church and dial the nd back as you transition in to relative darkness. Just buy the largest size round filters, eg, 82mm, and some step down rings to fit most lenses. Yes, many ultra wide lenses do not have a filter thread, but, most of those have a ND gel holder at the rear of the lens.

These are the kind of video we want on Fstoppers 🤩✌🏻
It was a fun project! I think when we film PTW5, we'll include a bonus series like this. Free to watch, but with the same quality.
@@EliaLocardi There's gonna be a PTW5? 😯
@@EliaLocardi That's awesome.... Can't wait for PTW5😍😍
iT'S GOOD TO SEE ELIA BACK !!
Yeah - Elia is back!!!! Love his work. Thanks Fstoppers for bringing him back.

Great intro. Don't forget to frame and focus before putting the 10 stop on, as it can get pretty dark.
With mirrorless you can get an exact exposure preview. Or turn on the auto exposure view which will let you see in the dark essentially.

You could take a couple of faster exposures and average them in a stack in photoshop. Gives a similar effect.
Yeah, the stacking technique works VERY well for skies, but not for water.
@@EliaLocardi Have you tried stacking a long exposure with a short exposure, to get a layer of the soft movement with some foam detail superimposed?
Hey Elia, i bought your FireCrest travel kit a few years back. How would you say these compare?
Both companies have released new glass filters that have definitely raised the bar. I would say that FH and NiSi are on-par at the moment.
Love to see you guys togetger again guys
I dig your shirt, where did you get it?
Great work BTW.
Awesome tutorial!!!
Excellent, thanks
Great examples!
Thanks for the informative video

We cover graduated filers later in the series.

Still rockin' that long hippie hair...sheesh
Oh, I thought ”In the dangerzone (of F16)” was about F14:s…
