I have a set of 4 filters that was included with the P4 I bought, and no paperwork at all. They are marked: Taco RC P4 Series MC ND4, ND8, ND16 and ND32. Can anyone shed some light on these. What camera settings are they used for and what's the effect? Thanks!

They are Neutral Density (ND) filters and they cut the amount of light without affecting colour.
Think of them as sunglasses for the lens.
They are only useful for forcing the camera to use a slower shutter speed.
This is something that can be useful in video.
Unless you have a particular reason to want to shoot at a lower shutter speed, they no use for stills photography.
