Re: Shutter speeds and sunlight

Not sure from reading your original post whether or not you set you lens to the highest numbered F stop on your camera/lens (eg F22 F32). As previously mentioned also use the lowest ISO you can get.

I've also found you can substitute a polariser filter in place of an ND if you've forgotten to bring it along, that will also gain you a couple of F stops. To achieve the blurred water effect you want the longest shutter speed possible, so if shooting raw you may also get away with a small amount of exposure compensation too.
