Join us for an eye-opening exploration of how neutral density and polarizing filters remain essential tools in modern photography. In this engaging presentation, Jim Reisman from NiSi Optics USA will demonstrate how these filters help photographers master exposure, achieve stunning long-exposure shots, and create images with unparalleled vibrance — no post-processing required.
ND and polarizers are just the beginning. Jim will also explore the creative impact of special effects filters like Black Mist, which can add cinematic depth, soften highlights, and enhance atmosphere in ways that software alone cannot achieve.
With so many filter options and mounting systems available, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming. This session breaks down the differences between magnetic, screw-in, and square filter systems to help you find what best suits your photography style and workflow.
Whether you’re shooting landscapes, portraits, or cinematic visuals, this presentation will deliver both technical insight and creative inspiration to help you get the most out of these powerful tools.
