p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · lee filter hood


Hey guys i am thinking of picking up a lee filter hood with a 77mm adapter. I shoot mainly studio and outdoor flash whenever i seize a good opportunity and have been using just the hoya 2-3 stop nd filters. I looked at the prices for the lee filter nd filter 0.6 2stops and 0.9 3 stop pro glass for this system and they are 190 bucks each... op top of the 250 you spend on the hood and adaptor. Is it worth 500 bucks compared to the 50 dollar screw on filters you can find from hoya and tiffen? I don't shoot landscape so i wouldn't need all those amazing filters this set is built for, but would love to buy those in the future if i ever decide.

Would you choose the b+w over the lee filter?

The Lee is good if you have lenses of various filter sizes (I have 67, 77 and 82). I would do the Lee than step up rings. However B+W is more neutral than Lee in my experience.

I do have the big stopper though.

I have a otus 55mm and a 24-70 which are both 77mm thread. So haha if it makes sense I only need the once nd but was always so curious why people bought the lee filter with hood and used in studio.
