I have few question about Graduated Neutral Density .
I use Cokin's Graduated Neutral Density filter and it gets scratched
easily.
I heard that Lee's Graduated Neutral Density filters are scratch
resistant because its made of glass.
Do you use Hard edged or soft edgedGraduated Neutral Density filter?
I use the Tiffen glass ones because they fit the Cokin filter holders.
Be careful with them though. I tried to use a brand new one with a
polarizer filter. I thought I had the P holder attached to the
polarizing filter but when I tried to maneuver the Tiffen, the damned P
holder fell off. My brand new never used $100+ filter smashed to bits. I
was so mad I wanted to jump off the damned mountain.
The Cokin ones scratch and they can give you weird colors but they don't
break.
The soft edged filters are designed for wide angle lenses and the hard
edged ones for telephoto lenses.
