Canon's DSLR Camera, Tamron's Lens, and TIffen's Filters: The Perfect Photography Trio...


With all of the technologically-advanced cell phones out there nowadays and their built-in cameras, the real art of photography seems to be getting lost. For those of us who love photography and everything about it, there’s so much more than clicking a photo on your phone. For this reason, the pair of products that we are crazy about and want to inform you about are the Canon EOS cameras and Tamron All-In-One lenses. Nothing else compares at their price ranges and for their superior quality and features.

Canon
Photography encompasses so much more than snapping a picture. When you snap that picture, you’re capturing a moment in time between yourself and your subject/object. For a split second, you are both bonded. However, from that point on, that photograph can mean so many things to so many more people for generations and generations to come. A picture says a thousand words, or sometimes more than that. Photographs emit so many emotions that run the gamit from happy to sad, and everything in between. They are so personal and, for most people, more important than any other possessions that they own. Make sure that when you take pictures that you know will be important to you in the future, you have the best equipment to capture it perfectly. And that means owning a Canon EOS camera. If incredible image quality and outstanding performance are part of your justification for purchasing a camera, there’s nowhere else to turn.

Tiffen optical filters are more important then ever before, when shooting with your digital camera because:
- Save time and frustration in post-production – eliminate uncertainty and see the effect you want immediately, not hours or days later. 

- Lens Protection – Protect your lens from moisture, scratches and damage.
- Correction – Bring optical correction to a known standard, leaving more latitude for digital effects later.
- Contrast Control – Our award-winning Ultra Contrast and Low Contrast filters allow your digital camera to capture more shadow detail or lower contrast evenly.
- Polarizers – These filter are ideal for color and contrast enhancements, removing reflections from water and glass (impossible to do electronically) while adding richer, natural color saturation.
- Color Enhancing Filter – Makes vibrant fall colors “pop” without adversely affecting other colors. Difficult to easily do electronically.
- Color-Grad Filters – Add color selectively to the image while keeping other portions unaffected. 


The Tiffen Variable ND filter. This filter is a unique, versatile and flexible tool, affording you the convenience of using several Neutral Density filters all in one. Primarily used as a photographic tool for controlling depth of field and exposure, the Variable ND is being sought in the video market as well because it is fast, easy to use, small, lightweight, and does not require additional accessories such as a matte box. Available in 52, 58, 62, 67, 72, 77 and 82mm. Features: It provides 2 to 8 stops of light control; has a thin profile ring - 9mm; wider outer optic to help reduce vignetting at wide angles; comes in Tiffen padded black nylon pouch; made with high quality optical glass using Tiffen's ColorCore technology. 

Neutral density filters reduce the amount of light going through the lens into your camera. By reducing the light you are able to achieve the following: Use of slow shutter speeds, with high speed films or digital cameras, to record movement/image blur in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds or any fast moving subject; obtain full control as you are able to decrease depth of field by using wider apertures, which helps separate subjects from their background (subject matter in focus while your background is blurred); allows you to shoot high speed film (above ISO 400) in bright outdoor situations by reducing effective ISO; enables cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure.


Before and After Shots





The Tiffen Variable ND filter operates on the same principle as a Circular Polarizer – rotate until you reach your desired effect and shoot. It allows you to have continuous control over the amount of light coming through your lens in an approximate range of 2 (ND 0.6) to 8 (ND 2.4) stops while maintaining the integrity of your image. This is a great addition for your photography repertoire. 



Digital HT Twin Pack. This useful kit contains a Digital Ultra Clear filter, a circular Polarizer filter, and a filter Pouch. Digital HT filters (High Transmission) are a state-of-the-art technological breakthrough in multi-coated photo and video filters. They are perfect for digital, video, and photos. Made for the discerning professional and imaging enthusiast, Digital HT filters with Hi-Trans Double-Sided Titanium Multi-Coating surpass even military specifications for hardness and durability. Digital HT filters offer the strength of a Titanium coating combined with the purest optical quality glass and Tiffen’s Academy-Award-winning ColorCore technology. They present unmatched scratch-resistant durability and worry-free cleaning while other coated filters on the market today cautiously suggest delicate, if any, cleaning procedures. This filter will protect your camera lens from dirt, grime, fingerprints and damage. And that’s not all – these High Transmission filters feature a low profile titanium finish ring and anti-reflective black lock ring which sets these filters apart from the rest.

Digital HT Circular Polarizer is an excellent filter that provides color and contrast enhancement. Reflected light often shows up as whitish glare that washes out color in an image. A Polarizer corrects this problem producing deep, dramatically blue skies, dramatic blacks, and enhanced color everywhere. It also removes glare from non-metallic surfaces, such as windows and water. Color saturation in general, especially outdoors, can be improved significantly. A Circular Polarizer has the same effect as a Polarizer and is used on cameras with beam splitting metering systems commonly found on auto focus SLR's (for most 35mm auto-focus cameras see your camera manual).
