Quoting myself from a few days ago:
"As an example of not requiring filters, when shooting landscapes on film, I
often use split graduated filters to even the exposure between ground and sky.
Not needed with digital. I just put the E-1 on a tripod and shoot one shot
exposed for the sky, another exposed for the ground, then put the two together
in Picture Window Pro. Takes about two minutes."
Works for me. :-)
