Filters, Fisheye Lens, and More

This instructable will teach you the purpose of "Filters, Fisheye Lenses, and More". It includes:

1.) A UV Filter [ultraviolet]

2.) A CPL [Circular Polarizer Filter]

3.) FLD [Florescent] Filter

4.) Fisheye Lens

5.) Macro Lens

6.) Tulip Lens Hood

The first filter that we will be looking at is a UV [ultraviolet] filter. This is the first picture. The main purpose of this filter is to protect your main camera lens from scratches/fingerprints/etc. and remove/absorb--you guessed it--ultraviolet rays. The CPL [Circular Polarizer Filter] Increases the color saturation for darker blue skies and takes the glare/reflectivness off of glassy surfaces. See Pictures. Then there is the FLD [Florescent] Filter. It looks like it would just make the picture purple, but it allows for taking good pictures under florescent lighting. Purple through purple is white.

Fisheye lenses (I just have an extension that screws on the front of my camera.) allow for wide shots and a bulge in close-ups. See Pics. Macro lenses make things...more...MACRO! See Pics again. To focus a macro lens extension, set the focus on your camera to "manual" and move the camera closer or farther from the object you are photographing.

Lens hoods block out excess light, taking glare off of some pictures. This brings us to the end. Thank you for reading! I hope this helped you.
