    It's more or less just the top of the R that I am talking about. The bottom of the R is very much there and can be seen with ease, but the bokeh at the top of the R kinda blends together. Makes the readability kinda hard.

    Yeah if you sit there and study it you see it all day, but at that first initial glance it gets lost.

    Yeah. It is. Stare at it long enough and you'll see it. Otherwise, it's lost in the bg.

    thats REALLY weird, in photoshop i added a drop shadow to the text, put it at distance 0, turned the opacity down, turned the strength up.. on my display i can see that the drop shadow is there and the "R" is distinctively separated from the back ground....

    I'm on my laptop so there's a bit of difference in screen size. But for me, the "R" bleeds into that string of lights with no separation.

    the R is definitely more defined there but ^that one is less bright than the one you posted earlier. idk if thats from the camera adjusting the exposure or not though

    It is less bright for me and the "R" stands out as well.

    If the camera were adjusting exposure, you'd have the same bleeding whether it was OE or UE-the picture on the screen remains consistent.

    What color profile are you using? For web display, sRGB works best.

    Does anybody here use a FADER FILTER variable ND filter, I have a 10 stop for shooting waterfalls and stuff, but I wanted something I could use for video and for other stuff as well.

    Here is one of the ones I was looking at. http://lightcraftworkshop.com/fader-nd-ultra-mk-ii.html

    Here is a shot taken with my 10 stop ND filter.
