  1. Update I've taken a few using the black tape solution. It seems to have done the trick although since the tape is a bit shiny, I like the sound of the adhesive velour or felt, so I'll be looking for some of that. Might as well avoid paint to preserve the lens value.
  2. Thanks for your comments. Yes I'm sure in the example I provided I would have been able to correct the sky in software and I often do that, but that's not always the case. Meanwhile I'll stick with the sticky tape solution. Cheers.
  3. Hi Milandro It was a Lee 0.6 hard grad, just used to darken the sky a bit. Gratifying that you can't see evidence of its use! I don't use clear filters.
  4. I agree with the need for tilt-shift lenses but I'd also like to see a nice compact 9 or 10mm prime - and I would sacrifice a large aperture for size/weight. The forthcoming 100-400 will fill the telephoto gap, otherwise the range is looking great.
  5. A few images taken using the Lee filter system (full size) on my XF14mm lens have featured a curious semicircular artefact. I thought at first it was flare but on closer inspection I've realised it is reflections of the lettering on the front lens flange. An example is attached - I've bumped up the contrast to make them more obvious. There is (hopefully) an easy fix to this. I've applied some black tape to cover up the white letters. Checking through there EVF this seems effective but I'll try it on my next shoot and see how it goes. I haven't seen the problem with my other Fujifilm lenses (18-135 and 35 f1.4). If anyone has encountered it before I'd like to hear their experiences and fixes if appropriate.
