Filters.
Do you have any? Do you use them? If so what for?
Is there much point in them?

yes, sometimes, CPL when reflections are an issue, grad/nd if needed otherwise I don't use them
I would say 90% of my shots are filterless.

Think of me like Yoda,
but instead of being little and green,
I wear suits and I'm awesome.

UV on all of my lenses thus far, mostly for additional protection to the front element, doubtful that using a UV filter actually does fuck all to the image.

Cokin grads and ND plates .. grads to keep light and dark areas even on exposure and ND's to reduce light intake

Ah yeh. Pretty much what I thought.
Seem very application specific, and you need to have the right one at the right time for it.
Might pick some up for a play around, if I find them real cheap.

When I buy a lens, I buy a filter for it at the same time. Just clear UV ones.
As soon as that lens is out of the box, on goes the filter, never to be removed.

If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.
