I Fail to Understand why the use of ND filters,..here in Europe light level is rather low, f.ex. , in summer ,100 iso at 100sec. between 2 - 4 midday usually requires f11...equally ,6400 iso at f1.4 , a difference of six f stops could be used ,which is easily overcome by today´s camera`s..and anything in between, enabling the photog to play with DOF,..and as mentioned , they`re supposedly polarizers, so why then not resorting to those, since you seem to have them already anyway..?..
Waterfalls etc. is the only reason I can think of.

I was dismayed when I discovered my D1 minimum ISO was 200, I had travelled some distance to make my first digital photographs of some brightly lit waterfalls in Yorkshire, but faced over exposure or frozen water droplets.
