I have 4 primes that cover that range, all with dedicated screw in CPL and ND/CPL filters. (6 if you count the normal range I shoot which is 15 to 35.) I've used the Lee 100 system, found it too fiddly for my tastes. Even the Lee Seven5 system seemed kind of painful. Making sure I don't get reflections, drizzle or spray getting on the polarizer or between the other filters. My favorite place to go is Ricketts Glen, predominantly for day trips. Between work, family and kids....it's hard to get away when weather forecasts are generally unpredictable until the night before. (Even then they're not always right.) Putting together a day where it is cloudy and/or web (but not pouring), low winds, right water flow.....not to mention autumn when you're trying to hit good color that is different towards the top of the mountain than towards the bottom.
Like I said, I'm happy others are happy with that type of setup. For me personally, I just find screw in filters easier to deal with for me in the field. I have no issues with putting that on me......but I know me, I'm not sure I can convince myself again to give it a whirl again. At least for now. It doesn't help that I tend to like primes (again nothing against zooms.)
Just call me weird. Anyway, looks like great glass, no doubt about it.
