    Buying some ND grads. What are the different applications for hard and soft grads?

    I think, in general, hard or soft will depend on the horizon you're using. If, for example, it's the sea, then you can use a hard (the change between sky and sea would be fairly level). For landscapes where there are rolling hills, etc, you'd be better off with soft.

    Of course, I could be wrong.

    cheers Paul, that makes sense. I heard that it depends on your lens length (i.e soft for wide angle and hard for telephoto) but i wouldn't know why :confused:
