Suggestions, yes. Unfortunately, they're all destructive so I woulnd't even follow my own advice.

Seriously, though, I was thinking of using one of those rubber/silicone jar opener things to get a better grip on one of the filters while I tried to unscrew the other from it. The bummer with the CP is that half of it is meant to turn!

Haha... yeah. I'm gonna try the UV filter with the silicon thing since that should be easier than the moveable CP.

I think there are filter clamps or something that are meant to help tighten/loosen filters, but....I don't know that they're worth parting with my money for.

Pinks All Out in Chandler, Arizona on Saturday November 20th. No post was done besides cropping. Taken on a Canon t2i (550d) with kit lense.

Even though the defense sucks @$$ (more than the Denard Show), took this w/ my S3 IS @ the WI game. They didn't allow dSLR's.

super clamp, magic arm, my camera on timer, and walking the bike.

Since I didn't have enough time to get to the next trail entrance before sunset and I still had some of my rig stuff in my Jeep, I just messed around in the lot.
