Tiffen ultra contras 1/8 quick test

thanks guys for your thoughts on this.
again, i intentionally bought the 1/8 filter because even the 1/4 already has a significant amount of distinctive 'fog', so this delicate DR help is as far as i personally want to go regarding this 'foggier' image (the downside of using the filter).
i like it very much. reminds is a bit of raw RED or Alexa footage (just a BIT :) )

Daniel (or Ian or whoever)- do you think that keeping the filter on all the time could cause any problems ? if it cannot do any harm, i might as well keep it on, it will even contribute to a whole constant look, no? (for the feature i start to shoot next week)

stonebat- in my case i put the ND on top (mine are the same thread size- 72mm)) . i cannot go the other way because the fader ND front thread is bigger than it's rear.
but it looks as if it won't make any big differences. (of course, if you'll make many test, perhaps it will, but...)
 
Panasonic gotta improve DR or have built-in soft/ultra contrast filters. Also built-in ND filters (2x/4x/6x) to make GH series optimized for video. No more ugly flare. I dont mind paying more for that. Then no more step up rings, big filters, big matte box. Nothing but lenses with good old hoods. Thats gonna be a true overall compact system. Until then... gotta carry a bunch of stuffs...
 
stonebat...
That's why the charge you 6000$ for the AF100.
no way they'll do this on a 1000$ Dslr. Forget it.
