Re: Metering using Filters

Re-reading the last bit of my post above I thought I should clarify...

Even with the graduated filter your result should leave the sky approximately +1 to2 stops brighter than the foreground to make the picture appear natural.

This is obviously a rule of thumb though and rules are meant to be broken in the name of creativity.
