Glamour Filter Hoya Soft-B?

Postby Oz_Beachside on Sun Sep 17, 2006 9:52 pm

Hello,

Does anyone use, and can post opinion/examples of portraits using filters such as Hoya Softener A (or the Stronger B).

Or on DSLRs is this softening generally completed in PP.

I like the idea of getting the softening at time of shoot.

Opinions, preferences, and examples preferred.

Kind Regards,
Oz

Oz,

For me (and I've only ever shot digital) it makes more sense to shot without the filter and add it to the level you want in post processing, you just have a greater level of control when doing it in after shooting it. But that's just my opinion mate.
