 * Comment I wish the caption would clarify what you're supposed to do with this. Do you attach this to the camera lens somehow?-- mcshadypl T C  04:54, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak support - Great encyclopedic value and executed fairly well, but I think knowing the degree of light reduction (3 stops or thereabouts?) would add significant value. Juliancolton (talk) 16:30, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll try to contact the creator and hear him out. If I get any information, I'll add it here as well as on the file page. --Kimsey0 (talk) 00:07, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
 * It's a ND4 (2 stops light reduction) according to the creator of the picture. I have updated the description page accordingly. --Kimsey0 (talk) 16:25, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I wonder i you would crop out most of the fingers and have the lens be about half of the entire image would look better. Nergaal (talk) 18:38, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I think it's better to do it this way, as this makes it clear it's not how the lens is normally used, while showing its effect. Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:20, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
