I have both the Cokin which I have used for many years, and the Lee which I have only had for a month, and I like the Lee better, it is a little heaver build quality. I bought mine on E-bay from England and received it in a week. Just two days ago B&H e-mailed my to say it was in stock.
To be honest either one will work fine.
If I were to go for a Lee kit, what would be the best kit to go with, the starter, Digital SLR starter or Foundation? Keep in mind that I want to buy a big stopper as well.
Also, there's a 77mm adapter and a 77mm adapter for wide lenses, I take it that I need the wide angle one..?
i sort of messed that one up real badly. what i was trying to say was if you look towards using your equipment in the future and you buy a Z you'll still end up buying the lee in the end.
They are a very reputable seller and one of the few that I found selling the 77mm adapter rings. They shipped right away and I had it in about 7 days. Probably the way to go if you don't want to wait. Their prices seemed to be in line with what they are going for over here, except for the increase due to the conversion rate and extra shipping. I was happy with them. I don't see their add for the kits with the wide angle adapter rings, but they may have more coming. One thing is sure, you will not find Lee at bargain prices, but I don't regret the purchase.
Thanks sjms, now I get ya.
I took the same line of thinking with my tripod, I bought a really high quality one (and head) that will pretty much last me forever.
Thanks for the eBay link, just working out the costs of buying either system.
