I don't have to use them much, but I have 2 neutral density 2 filters and 2 neutral density 4 filters (one for the 35 and one for the 50) to get me through a roll if that happens. Neutral density filters are just smokey grey glass, cutting out some of the light without affecting the contrast or color. I've probably used them twice since I picked them up in the seventies. Still lug them around though in case I have to go outside with Neopan 1600 in the camera.
