Obviously it was a thing for film cameras, but now that everything is digital, something like “just make the picture darker” seems extremely easy to do with software
quick edit, I know what ND filters are for and how to use them, no need to explain. it just seems to me that it could be engineered in a way that doesn’t require them, which is what I’m asking about

‘It could be engineered in a way’ sure, but at what cost? At some point, that *is* the engineering solution.
If I’m shooting at wide to get rid of the background in the middle of the day with strobes, and aready at the base ISO, there are three solutions:
* Faster shutter – I’m already at 1/8000.
* Hire camera assistants to carry [one of these](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d0/8d/af/d08daf86291fb7526960c0e16cce96dd.jpg) around.
* A neutral density fiter.
