Neutral Density Filters
When shooting outdoors on a sunny day, you might be forced to shoot at high shutter speeds. This will give you no, or little, motion blur. Unless you are going for a specific effect, most of the time you DO want motion blur, because this helps to make your footage feel movie-like. Therefore, a ND filter is a nice accessory to have.
My top pick: Aurora-Aperture PowerXND 2000 Variable ND filters. See my full review here.
You can get these filters on BH Photo Video, eBay, Amazon
