What filter can reduce vignetting?
Some filter kits have a standard and wide-angle filter holder and adapter ring. Ensure that you are using a wide-angle adapter ring as these tend to be thinner and hence cause less vignetting. I also prefer to use filter holders with two slots while shooting wide.
Should you use a variable ND filter?
If you shoot videos, a variable ND filter is advantageous to keep shutter speeds slow and constant, which can be hard to achieve in light that is bright but constantly changing. It’s also useful when trying to achieve both high image quality and shallow depth of field in environments where the light is a bit bright.
