Thank you for the advice everybody.

Having now had a chance to experiment a little with the Cokin 'P' series filter set, it seems to be a good starting point.

Couple of questions -

1. Why are there three slots for filters on the plastic holder - is this so you can use more than one if desired, or is there a 'correct' slot to use with a single filtter?

2. having done some background reading on the Photoradar site, specifically the article explaining filters, they suggest that you own an ND, ND grads and a polariser. The cokin kit has ND2, an ND4 and an ND8 grads; is it worthwhile getting a plain ND in addition?

3. For a relative [but keen!] newcomer, which if any polarizer in the p-series range would you suggest? There seem to be a few, and prices vary widely!

Thanks again.
