    Introduction

    2

    For many photographers, filters are the mainstay of the image-making process. Versatile and easy to use, they open up a world of creativity be that balancing the exposure between sky and foreground, increasing the saturation of a blue sky, ramping up the contrast of a black-and-white image or lengthening an exposure to introduce a sense of movement and the passing of time.

    Filters also aid the photographer in capturing an image that reflects what they saw when they released the shutter this means less time spent in front of a computer during postproduction and more time shooting.

    Compact System Cameras have a high specification packed into a small, portable body. Their design makes them the perfect tool for both everyday and more creative photography. The Seven5 filter system from LEE Filters follows the same principles and helps photographers fully realise the potential of their camera.

    How to use the Seven5

    Lightweight, simple and precision engineered, the Seven5 is extremely easy to set up and use.

    You need only three things: an adaptor ring, which screws onto the cameras lens; a filter holder, which snaps onto the adaptor ring; and a filter, which simply slides into the filter holder.

    Because the Seven5 filter holder features two slots, you can also combine filters - for example, a warm-up and an ND grad. In addition, the polarising filter can be clipped onto the front of the holder and rotated independently, leaving the area covered by the slot-in filters unaffected.

    The Starter Kit

    The Seven5 Starter Kit comprises one filter holder (which features two slots) and one 0.6ND hard grad. The adaptor ring needs to be purchased separately.

    Adaptor rings

    Adaptor rings are available for the following lens thread sizes:

    37mm, 37.5mm, 39mm, 40mm, 40.5mm, 43mm, 46mm, 49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 60mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm and Fuji X100 / X100S.

    Lens Hood

    The Seven5 system also features a lightweight clip-on lens hood, to help control the effects of flare.

    The rubber hood has been designed with three positive stop positions, allowing for shading on lenses of many focal lengths.

    The Seven5 polariser will fit easily inside the hood when needed.

    Screw the adaptor ring onto the front of your lens.

    Clip the filter holder onto the adaptor ring by releasing the silver lug at the side.

    Slide the filter into the holder in this case, a 0.6ND hard grad. Place it in the guide rails nearest to your lens.

    If you are shooting in Automatic mode, there is no need to adjust your exposure, as the camera will do this automatically.

    If you are shooting in Manual mode, you should adjust your shutter speed to compensate for the filter. Simply increase the length of the shutter speed in increments until the reading on your cameras screen is at 0.

    If you do not have an exposure compensation dial on your camera, you can adjust it via the menu settings. The cameras screen will display that you have set your exposure to +2/3.

    If you want to use your camera in Automatic mode, set it to A. As a starting point, dial in +2/3 exposure compensation. This will be sufficient for most situations, but may vary depending on the brightness of the scene and how much the filter covers it. You may want to bracket to be sure.

    Use the viewfinder or Live View to position the filter so that the graduated area is over the horizon.

    With the graduated filter in place, you are ready to take your meter reading.

    Without a filter, the reflections are distracting and the image has too much contrast.

    Screw the adaptor ring onto the front of your lens.

    Clip the polariser onto the front of your filter holder.

    Holding the polariser up to your eye, rotate the filter until you achieve the desired effect.

    Without a filter, there is no sense of movement in this scene.

    Screw the adaptor ring onto the front of your lens.

    Clip the filter holder onto the adaptor ring by releasing the silver lug at the side.

    Fit your camera to a tripod and set it to manual focus. Take a light reading, then set your aperture and make a note of the shutter speed.

    The Big Stopper increases the exposure by ten stops, so you will need to extend your shutter speed accordingly. To calculate it, use the card supplied with the filter. For example, a reading of 1/125sec at f/8 becomes eight seconds at f/8. The filter has a blue cast, which can be corrected by increasing the colour temperature of your camera to 8,000-9,000K. As each filter varies slightly, you should take some test images to determine the ideal colour temperature setting for your filter.

    Depending on the shutter speed, you will probably have to set your camera to bulb (B).

    Slide the filter into the holder. Place it in the guide rails nearest to your lens and make sure the filters foam seal is facing the camera.

    Release the shutter using a remote or cable release. Because the camera is in B mode, you will need to count your exposure either in your head, or with a watch or the timer on a smartphone. Cover the viewfinder with your hand to prevent light leaks, being careful not to knock the camera.

    The ultra-slow shutter speed has resulted in the water appearing misty and ethereal.

  • Their purpose is to reduce the amount of light hitting the cameras sensor without and this is crucial altering the colour of the scene. They come in two types: graduated and standard. Both standard and graduated

    ND filters for the Seven5 system are available in 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 strengths. The 0.3ND reduces the amount of light hitting the sensor by one stop, the 0.6ND by two stops and the 0.9ND by three stops.

    Neutral density filters

    In a standard ND filter, the neutral density tone covers the entire filter. It can be used either to slow down the shutter speed or to widen the aperture. For example, if a meter reading suggests 1/60 sec at f/8, fitting a 0.9ND (three-stop) standard filter would allow you to slow your shutter speed to 1/8 sec at f/8, to impart a sense of movement to the scene.

    Alternatively, using the same reading of 1/60 sec at f/8, fitting a 0.9ND standard filter would allow you to open up your aperture to f/2.8. This gives you the opportunity to focus more selectively and if shooting a portrait, for example throw the background out of focus for a more flattering and less distracting result.

    Neutral density (ND) filters form an invaluable part of any creative photographers armoury.

    A graduated ND filter has the neutral density tone covering just part of the filter. Half way down the filter, the tone begins to dissolve, until it leaves clear resin. In most situations, the sky is brighter than the foreground of a scene, so the graduated ND helps to balance your exposure. The result is an evenly lit scene, as opposed to one where either the sky is burned out and white, or the foreground is underexposed.

    ND grads come in two types: hard and soft. The hard grad has a much more defined transition between neutral density and clear, and is ideal when the area of transition in the composition is defined a wall, or the seas horizon, for example.

    A soft grad, as its name suggests, features a more gradual transition, and is the filter type of choice when the line between sky and foreground is less defined, such as an undulating landscape.

    For photographers who prefer glass filters, LEE has introduced the ProGlass range. Manufactured from the highest-quality glass, the ProGlass standard neutral density filters are available in 0.6 and 0.9 strengths. Optimised for use with digital cameras, the ProGlass filters absorb more infrared and ultraviolet light than their resin ND counterparts, and can cope effectively with adverse lighting conditions.

  • There are two types of polariser: circular and linear. These terms do not describe the shape of the polariser, but the way in which it works. In general terms, modern cameras require circular polarisers, because the linear type interferes with complex electronics.

    LEE Filters has introduced a circular polariser specifically for the Seven5 system.

    12 13

    The polarising filter

    The polarising filter is an extremely versatile tool that can bring depth and dimension to an image.

    In use

    A polariser works by cutting out certain waves of light from reflective surfaces, making colours appear more saturated. But there is more to this filter than simply ramping up the colour of a blue sky. It can be used more subtly, too.

    While rotating the polariser fully will result in the aforementioned deep blue sky with clouds that appear to leap out of the image, rotating it by just two thirds or three quarters will give a slightly more delicate and potentially more realistic result, with less contrast between cloud and sky, and an image that is more believable to the human eye.

    And its far from being a filter only for the landscape photographer. Those with an interest in architectural pictures also find it invaluable, as it cuts reflections which can render an image confusing and muddled from glass and metallic surfaces.

    The beauty of the Seven5 polariser lies not only in its simplicity (it snaps onto the filter holder and is ready to use), but also in the fact that it can be rotated independently of any other filters.

    This means it can be used in conjunction with, for example, a warm-up filter or a neutral density grad.

    One point to remember is that you will have to increase your exposure by 1 3/4 stops when using a polariser. If you are combining it with other filters, the increase may be even greater.

    The Big Stopper

    However, LEE Filters chose to respond to the trend in the simplest way possible, by introducing the Big Stopper a filter that lengthens the exposure by a full ten stops. This means that a reading of 1/30 sec at f/8 would extend to an exposure of 30 seconds at f/8. If you are shooting in low light, and have a reading of, say, one second at f/8, your shutter speed would become an impressive 16 minutes. Adjusting the aperture and ISO settings would allow it to be lengthened even further.

    Combining filters

    For even more precise control of the image, the Big Stopper can be used in conjunction with other filters for example, an ND grad or polarising filter.

    Remember to take the filter factor of any other filters into account when setting your exposure.

    Exposure Guide

    Your Big Stopper will have a density of somewhere between 9 and 10 stops. Before first use, please take a test image to ensure correct exposure compensation when in use.

    In recent years, photographers such as Jonathan Chritchley, Michael Kenna and Rolfe Horn have created a trend for ultra-long exposures. The result is a very particular style of image that conveys a sense of movement and the passing of time.

    It is a technique that is well suited to seascapes or landscape images that feature water, with sometimes fast-moving elements of a composition being rendered apparently still and milky white.

    The Big Stopper

    In the past, creating a long exposure meant a fiddly process of setting the lowest ISO possible, stopping down to the smallest aperture and then fitting a standard ND filter or sometimes stacking one on top of the other. Of course, shooting film meant taking reciprocity failure into account, which further increased the exposure.

  • Vibrant, colourful and often gritty, its not surprising so many photographers find their inspiration in our cities. From studies of architectural details, to quirky juxtapositions of buildings, or playing with the scale differences between people and structures, the creative possibilities are almost infinite.

    Getting creative

    Urban landscapes

    Compact System Cameras are ideally suited to this type of environment, where a photographer, often working handheld, needs to respond quickly to a fast-unfolding scene. Its this kind of photography that LEE Filters bore in mind when developing the Seven5 system making it inconspicuous and light enough to remain attached to the lens at all times. All the photographer needs to do is slide in or snap on the appropriate filter and shoot.

    One of the most enjoyable aspects of shooting in cities is choosing which lens to work with. A telephoto lens, or shooting at the long end of a zoom, allows the photographer to compress the perspective of a scene, making structures appear closer to each other than they actually are.

    This is great for conveying the bustle of a cityscape. A wider lens puts the building into context and can convey drama when shooting from a low angle pointing upwards.

    Choosing your filter

    Almost any filter goes in an urban environment. A polariser reduces the reflection from glass windows, while increasing the saturation of a blue sky.

    The polariser can be used alone or in conjunction with other filters. More often than not, the sky will give a brighter meter reading than the foreground, so fitting an ND grad will overcome this and balance out the exposure. You might even like to slide a sunset filter or a coral grad into the holder, to introduce an element of warmth to the scene.

    Its also possible to create unusual and arresting images in cities using the Big Stopper filter although it does, of course, require a sturdy tripod if camera shake is to be avoided.

    The movement of clouds against a steady-as-a-rock building is often an attractive juxtaposition, while extremely long exposures in low light can render moving figures invisible, resulting in an intriguing scene that might appear to be devoid of human presence.

    Whether shooting family snaps as mementoes, or something more formal, photographing people is an endlessly fulfilling challenge.

    Portraits

    Capturing the essence of someones personality while simultaneously placing them at their ease and staying alert to the split second when everything falls into place certainly keeps a photographer on their toes.

    The choice of filter when shooting portraits depends on many factors, including whether working indoors or outdoors, the subjects skin tone and, of course, what the photographer hopes to achieve with the image. Like much of photography, its all about experimenting, but here are a few pointers to get started.

    Choosing your filter

    When shooting portraits outdoors in natural light, you may encounter the same disparity between sky and foreground, in terms of exposure, as you would with landscape photography. In cases such as these, an ND grad is invaluable and reduces the need for fiddly work at the computer in postproduction.

    One of the classic techniques of portrait photography is to use a wide aperture around f/4 or even f/2.8 in order to throw the background out of focus and concentrate the viewers attention on the subject, and render any potential distractions blurred. However, bright sunshine can often put paid to such an approach. In these situations, a standard ND filter reduces the amount of light hitting the sensor, permitting the photographer to open up the aperture.

    For example, a reading of 1/500 sec at f/11 is an ideal shutter speed, but not such a great aperture. Fitting a standard 0.9ND filter would result in an aperture of f/4, which is preferable for portrait photography.

    One of the great joys of photography is that it gives us the chance to experiment and nowhere is this more apparent than with long exposures. They can be something of a trial and error, but thats a big part of the fun.

    Long exposures

    Success with long exposures relies on one key item: a decent tripod. This means the resulting photographs are blurred for the right reasons and not because of camera shake.

    Because theres no exact definition of what constitutes a long exposure, the extent of blur within an image is completely down to the photographer.

    A shutter speed of 1/2 sec on a busy street will capture a sense of movement and bustle, while a two-minute exposure when shooting a seascape will result in a smooth, still image almost devoid of detail in the moving areas of the frame. Choosing your filter

    When it comes to long exposures, the standard ND is the filter you want to reach for. Depending on the extent to which you want to slow down your shutter speed, you can pick anything from the 0.3ND, for just one stop of compensation, through 0.6 (2 stops) and 0.9 (3 stops), right up to the ten stops of the Big Stopper.

    And because the Seven5 filter holder has two slots, you can even stack filters, so a combination of 0.6 and 0.9ND standards, would give an extended exposure of five stops.

    Trial and error

    Although one of the most enjoyable aspects of long-exposure photography is its unpredictability, if you want more controlled results, its important to experiment. By doing so, you will build up a mental library of the effects of different shutter speeds on the scene in front of you.

    For instance, a long exposure doesnt have to mean the moving part of the composition is devoid of all detail. Many landscape photographers feel the movement of a waterfall, for instance, is best conveyed when a little detail is retained in the water.

    As such, they may use a shutter speed of around 1/4 sec or 1/2 sec as opposed to one of 30 seconds or more. Other photographers, however, may prefer the abstract results that arise from the longer exposures there are no rules, after all!

    Choosing your filter

    When it comes to filters for landscape photography, the choice is enormous and can be confusing. Start by asking yourself what you want a filter to add to your image. Do you want it to dramatise what is in front of you, adding a sense of the hyper real? Or would you prefer the use of filters to be imperceptible, their use simply helping to replicate what can be seen with the naked eye?

    Whichever your preference, neutral density grads, warm-up filters and a polariser make a good starting point. For further enhancement, you might want to add sunset, coral and blue filters to your kit all of which will enhance an otherwise dull sky, without appearing overdone.

    Choosing colours that complement rather than clash with your composition is the key to success.

    The two-slot design of the Seven5 holder means that the photographer can combine filters, so a neutral density grad might balance the exposure between sky and foreground, for example, while a blue grad would introduce tone into what might be an otherwise featureless sky.

    Landscape photography consistently comes up as the most popular subject among keen photographers. And its not surprising. Getting out into the fresh air of the countryside armed with nothing but a camera and with nothing to think about other than making images is one of the best ways to switch off from everyday pressures.

    Landscapes

    Despite this, however, landscape photography can be tricky to master, and conveying a true sense of place, time and mood in an image is something that only comes with practice.

    Nothing is more crucial to the success of a landscape image than the right light. This usually means shooting at the very beginning or end of the day, when the light can be anything from understated and subtle to dramatic and fiery, moulding the scene, giving it colour, depth and atmosphere.

    Black and white

    Stripped of its colour, a scene takes on a whole new mood and meaning, one that is completely different from how it might appear if shot in colour.

    Many Compact System Cameras give the photographer the option of capturing the image in black and white, with the rear monitor displaying it in monochrome.

    This is an extremely useful aid in terms of visualising in black and white. When shooting in this mode, using filters can enhance the picture, and the monitor means the photographer can see the effect of the filter instantly, rather than waiting until the photographs are uploaded onto the computer at home.

    As a result, they can be modified in the field, avoiding the need to spend as much time on the computer at the postproduction stage.

    Choosing your filter

    The basic kit for the photographer who shoots in black and white would include yellow, orange and red filters. If shooting a blue sky with white, puffy clouds, the yellow filter would impart a slight increase in contrast between the two, while a red filter would have a far more dramatic effect. The effect of an orange filter falls in between.

    However, there are other factors to consider when using these filters, because they also brighten colours similar to their own. For example, fitting a red filter when photographing a typical red London bus would result in the vehicle appearing almost white in the final image.

    This filter also absorbs green, so it should be used judiciously when shooting landscapes, as any lush greenery can block up, losing detail and contrast.

    Neutral-density filters both standard and graduated are also invaluable to the photographer who works in black and white. They should be used in the same way as with colour photography, namely, to balance exposure and to either slow down shutter speed or afford the use of a wider aperture.

    Last, but most definitely not least, the Big Stopper is perfect for monochrome photography, enhancing a pictures mood and sense of the abstract.Recent years have seen a huge resurgence of interest in

    black and white photography. This is thanks in no small part to the introduction of digital technology and the ease with which it allows the photographer to convert colour images to monochrome. Black and white images have a quality all of their own.

    Neutral density grad set

    The neutral density grad set comes in both hard and soft grad versions. Each set includes 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 strength filters, with the 0.3 grad equating to one stop of exposure compensation, the 0.6 grad equating to two, and the 0.9 grad giving three stops. So, for example, if the meter reading for the sky was 1/30 sec at f/8 and the foreground 1/125 sec at f/8, you would

    select a 0.6ND grad, which would even out the exposure to 1/125 sec at f/8 across the whole scene.

    Dont forget, too, that the Seven5 systems filter holder can be rotated, so grads of any type can be used at an angle or even upside down. For a full explanation of how to use neutral density grads, see page 6.

    Black and white set

    Filters are an essential part of any black and white photographers kit, and this set reflects that. Made up of Yellow, Red and Yellowish Green standard filters (not

    grads), the first two filters will enhance the contrast in a sky to varying degrees, while the Yellowish Green both imparts contrast and opens up the tones of green foliage.
