Filter for Fuji 6500fd

ryanoj

Hi all, I got a Fuji 6500fd from Santa, and I was wondering if it was possible to get a graduated ND filter (or any filter for that matter!) to fit it. Also where is the best place to buy them?

Nice camera, and it takes a 58mm filter — should be easy to find. Sounds like a job for eBay, if you pick a reputable seller. Small, light, easily posted, and probably way over-priced in the Irish high street (open to correction on that!)

If you find what you want, I'd suggest you double up on a couple of other filters (you'll want a skylight or UV to keep on it permanently, I assume?) so as to save postage...

Alternatively, you might be interested in something like the Cokin system? Lots of bargain sets to be had second-hand on eBay.

But buy a standard skylight or UV to protect the lens, too!

If you're going ebay, look for a seller from Hong Kong called UR Galaxy... highly recommended, I've bought loads of stuff from them and other people here would vouch for them. I found though that after shipping, the cost is practically the same as in the shops, again, open to correction.
