I havent actually got any filters for my canon lenses and just wondered which ones i should get, make and models would be good so i could research and buy them.

Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

If you need ND-grad filters HiTech filters are good and well priced

You'll want a polariser, pick a brand from the links below. UV filters are generally unnecessary.
I don't personally use ND Grads, as I find it easier and cheaper to add a virtual one in lightroom for a low value, or go full on hdr for a higher value.

Def get a polarising filter. I got a cheapy, kenko I think, and its really good.

Def have a look at grad N D filter. You'll be able to get some really good landscape shots/sunsets(rises)/waterfalls etc. It'll teach you more about using the camera itself also. I got a cokin triple set.
