Hi, thanks for the kind words, for general information all these, and more to come, were shot in Auto mode only. My wife would not carry my gear anymore, so I...

Hi guys, good information. Looked at Lifepixel site and they have the filter cut to size for $95.00 which solves the material and cutting problem. Then...
