Hi Joel. Walt, Piers:
I did buy the graduated, thats what I meant by 1/2 gray, do you need both
the 1 and 2 stop versions? The reverse gray sounds interesting.
I checked out the Lee and they are much better, but I am just checking it
out, and can always upgrade. The Singhs are not well known in Canada so I
haven't been able to check them out.
And Piers no re:son to get upset, I w'ont re:peat it.
I was wondering about the grad. blues etc. but they seem a bit redundant if
you have a polarizer.
Gord
