For the studio shot, he could have used ND filter gels on the flash. Much cheaper and much better. The VF remains bright.

Of course, that’s a different story for the outdoors shot

So you ever get weird flare with a ND filter. I always debate putting a $50 filter on my $2000 lens.

if someone wants to get real ghetto you can use a welders shaded glass. That is how we do it down south.

Chris Thorn, you setup your shot, with tripod, focus, and then put on nd filter (if its really that dark) and then shoot.

I’ve used once ND8 in studio and what I didn’t like was how dark was in viewfinder. Another thing to remember is that the AF receives less light and lens f/2.8 becomes f/8 so bright modeling light will be necessary for smooth AF.
