Now that we’re fully entrenched in the digital age and all have access to photo editing software that can work wonders with your images, it’s all too easy to believe that the traditional photography filter is unnecessary.
But there’s a lot to be said for still using traditional filter effects. Some photography filters, such as polarisers and strong neutral density filters, can produce effects that are time-consuming or even impossible to replicate digitally, while others can allow you to shoot in conditions that could otherwise damage your lens.
In this great photography cheat sheet from the team at The Studio, they’ve rounded up 11 of the most important photography filters, illustrated their effects with and without the filter mounted and explained when you might want to use one to improve your image.
