<p>Bill and William - thank you both for the links, they were very helpful.<br> William, <br />I see where you are going with this, it will be hard to know which effects I want to achieve, as I haven't photographed waterfalls successfully. <br> I went to Plitvice Lakes back in 2012 without the ND filter, and right away I knew that I needed one. <br> I am really considering the idea of a variable filter. <br> If I only get one filter, are you recommending a good starting point is ND64? </p> <p> </p>

William, Maybe I should have asked this question differently. I currently shoot with nikon d90 looking to purchase d7100 or replacement if it ever is released. I want to have CPL mainly for the sky or when I go to the zoo for glass reflections. My lenses are Nikkor 70-300, tokina 11-16, sigma 17-55. As for the ND filter I want to be able to shoot on a tripod in broad daylight, waterfalls. What ND filter do I need to achieve this. I agree that I need to think uses before spending the money. What recommendations do you have? Jochen, I guess I didn't understand the nd4.

<p>I am finally getting ready to spend some money on some filters. <br> I will mainly use it on Nikon D90 and Tokina 11-16mm. <br> So Far I am liking the price of both Hoya 77mm NXT Circular Polarizing Slim Frame and also 77mm Hoya HMC Filter - ND4. <br> Can someone who uses these same configurations give me some advice if this is a good direction to go? Should I be looking into different filters than these? <br> I am hoping to stay somewhere in the mid-range as far as price/quality goes. <br> Appreciate comments/recommendations! </p>
