Shooting under bright sunlight often presents two awkward situations: either the image is overexposed, losing all detail, or the light is too harsh, resulting in harsh shadows and a complete lack of texture.
Don't panic! What you need is—an ND filter! Some call it a "light master," as it helps you control the amount of light entering the camera. Even in strong light, it allows you to slow down the shutter speed, lower the exposure, and create a softer image with richer details.

If you want to simultaneously eliminate reflections and enhance colors, add a CPL polarizing filter. The sky will be bluer, the water clearer, and you'll have complete control over colors.
H&Y RevoRing MarkII Variable Neutral Density + Circular Polarizer Filter combines these two functions, allowing you to use ND and CPL filters individually or in combination. Furthermore, its adjustable aperture makes it compatible with multiple lens groups. Its innovative design truly amazes me!

After using it for several months, I highly recommend the H&Y RevoRing MKII Variable ND+CPL Filter.
It features an integrated ND+CPL design with 1.5-10 stops of adjustable brightness, flexibly adapting to different lighting conditions.
It's lightweight and portable, taking up minimal space for outdoor shooting.
Image quality is enhanced rather than diminished, with natural colors, no color cast, and no vignetting.
The adjustable aperture design covers multiple lens options.
Whether shooting videos or photos, you control the pace, allowing for unrestricted creativity and greatly improving the efficiency of outdoor shooting.

We took it on several outdoor shoots, shooting waterfalls at midday, portraits at the beach, and time-lapses in the city... It handled even the strongest light without flinching, producing images that were still detailed and layered, and offering more room for post-processing.
So, how important are ND filters? Some say, "You can fix it in post-production." But those who truly understand photography know: if you can do a good job in pre-production, why rely on post-production?
A good filter not only saves time but also improves the quality of the final image.
