Hi everyone
I've been using P4D Capture and GS Pro with my I2-X4s combo for some terrestial mapping and I've had some good results back.
I now need to undertake a more difficult task out over Pole Harbour however. We need to survey the eelgrass beds at low tide in order to ascertain their condition. I imagine that a polarising filter will be required as there will still be water above them and I'll need to reduce reflections to a minimum.
It is possible to now buy a combined ND/PL filter from Polar Pro and I'm wondering if this would be a better bet than just a PL filter alone? The advantage would be that I could also use it for video to bring down the shutter speed too - but would the extra filter compromise the mapping data quality?
I'm aware that stitching water is difficult so I'm hoping to improve the success rate by utilising polarisation but I'd appreciate any advice or experience as to which filters to get; PL and ND combined or separate?
Thanks
Bob
