Taking my F80 on holiday to Naples. Hope to do a lot of shooting around Pompeii in July. I'm guessing there will be lots of light around.
I was thinking about buying a filter as the intese light may cause problems, but I'm not sure if an ND grad or polarising filter would be better. Some books suggest that the circular polariser can do the same job as an ND grad.
Does anyone have any thoughts/recommendations?
You're right to ask the question in bright sunlight with ISO 100 film you run out of apertures, or shutter speeds to control the light intensity, I would take 2x neutral density filter (that will half the film speed to ISO 50) and a 4x ND filter(that will quarter the film speed to 25 ISO )these are round screw in filters,( not graduated N.D ones that are square and intended to even out the exposure between the land and the sky on landscape work,) your cameras TTL metering will compensate for the exposure.
