Great to see a nice bright sunny day and fun and frolics at the seaside, Andy; a nice bit of the natural world brought right into 'our living rooms' through your efforts and your productions - so Thankyou ! - David
Cheers, John. Do not consider magnetics an "upgrade". They're just different. More of a sideways move if you like. Pros and cons of every system. If squares are working fine, there's no need to spend money. Must get out with you on a shoot sometime.
Morning Andrew, I was up in Norfolk at the end of March & ventured onto Happisburgh Beach a great place with a load of great old beach defences / groynes. I think your long exposure photos picking out the details of these are brilliant & I will have to try that technique rather than looking to capture all of them... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻... I take it you were using your 40-150 F2.8 Olympus Telephoto Lens to do this 🤔... Keep Up The Great Work & Vlogs All The Best David
Hi, David, Yes my 40-150 is a common fitment to my camera. Great Lens. Simplifying a shot is what I find works best for me. It's so much easier than having to find an unconfusing comp.
Thanks mate ; I have often wondered about the magnetic filters as screwing filters off and on is a pain. I was thinking more about a polarizing filter as I don't have too much flowing water out where I live . The sea is 6+ hours drive away :( . I will certainly explore the idea more now ------ bugga ; not more $$$$$ into a photo habit ! Polarizing filter is pretty much the only filter I use these days as most other effects can be done in edit. Burst mode (machine gun mode 😊) can work ok but certainly not perfect every time 4:33 I can see great little photo there with trails from the tripod legs
ND Filters have so much more use than just slowing flowing water. I am no lover of screw-on filters at all, but costs are an important factor in any purchase. Remember, buying more gear will NOT make you a better photographer. Yes, I see what you mean about the shot potential - hadn't occurred to me before you said that.
they are excellent filters optically. the screws less so - they really should be captive. I use this and the Kase Wolverine system. If you could use the Freewell CPL on its own (ie with no ND stops) I'd sell the Kase system and just use this. But as I sometimes want just polarisation I can't, so will probably end up selling the Freewell filters.
This is a fact that I didn't touch on in the video but it's very valid. I love the glass, it's excellent, but, perhaps this set is better suited for video where ND is almost always required in outdoor conditions.
If the glass you already have does the job and you're happy with it, there is no real reason to "invest" in a filter system. This was very much the point I tried to make to the person who was talking about "upgrading" from a square system to a magnetic one. If what you already have is giving you good results, you stand to gain little from changing the system.
Nice to see you out enjoying yourself and having a laugh on the beach.
Thanks, Peter.

Thank you, David. Your support as a member of the channel is really valued.
Looks like you had loads of fun dodging the water.... and some really ncie shots too!
Great shots you must be pleased with them.
Thanks. They're nothing special to me - standard fayre at the beach for these parts if I am honest. It takes a lot to impress me these days. :-)
Really lovely images from Happisburgh Andy. Still on squares at the mo but will make the change soon (ish)

Hello, Andrew.
Beautiful photos you took.
And that filter system looks pretty good.
Until the next opportunity.
Thanks, Antoine.
Great photos ! 😍
Thank you!
Taking photos like a Sandpiper. Well done !
Sometimes, having my head in the sand is the best approach.
Hi Andy, I have the square K&F filters and the magnetic ones, I prefer the magnetic ones, saves time and I'm lazy 🤣nice shots with the filter Andy.
Cheers, Steve.
