I was quite exited to receive the holder and filters (separate) due to so good reviews, but once opened and reviewed I can easily say: not as good as sounded to be.
Feels cheap, a bit, well, definitely not a something that is worth 100 quid. In fact, the adapter ring seemed to be much better quality than the holder, which is:
- "plastisch & feeling cheap"; I had to get rid of some plastic "scuffs" using fingers, looked like not cleaned from factory outlet
- the holder, for this price, could be more "solid" and have definitely smoother finish, it looks much better on pictures than after unpackaing
- one side of plastic holder looks like having "melted in" some metallic dust (maybe its decoration)
In general: few grams of plastic, clumsy finished - not worth the money. If it was dur-aluminium based mount (like adaptor???) it would be different story.
Good news, it works, you can mount your filters (these are much better quality than holder) and use them nicely. The button "locking" on ring, isn't in fact locking anything, its metallic and looks sharp (so it will leave marks on adaptor quite quick, guaranteed - I hope that in future it wont take off any metal dust of the ring that can get into lens). The button isn't this shiny as on pictures - believe me, looks more like "unfinished coating", later I'll add some real pictures.
The thing I like about this kit is that you can manage amounts of "blades" (these are not blades in reality, just small pieces of plastic, if you have good hands you can do these yourself having some PCV).
Summary:
You may be better with cokin pro instead of this kit, If you have no super wide angle lens like Tokina 11-16 or any lens that get vinageting after adding extra filter YOU SHOULD NOT buy this, simply buy cokin P series, its 6 times cheaper and same plastic quality, and remember; cokin P series filters are 12 times (yes, dozen times!) cheaper! - Not even mentioning polarisers cost from LEE.
I give three stars as it is "fine" holder and good adapter, but overpriced - seriously overpriced.
