Regarding filter solutions, anyone considering the clip filters from STC?

I have a full set of Kase clip on filters. I believe Fred said that the quality on these filters are quite good. I haven't had the time to test my set yet with the Sigma 14-24. But I'll report back when I have done the test.

The clip-on filters' performance is identical to Kase's drop-in (lens) filters which is the best one available. (thinnest without color deviation). So, yes, the problem of filtering is solved for me with the new Kase clip-on filters. Since it works for all lenses, when I need the ND effect, I can just add it and switch lenses in the field without having to worry about. Just use my lenses bare with their hoods.

Thanks, Fred and @hiepphotog. There are some written reviews stating that the STC clip filters have a color cast, but the handful of video reviews don't mention it. The Kase filters look like a great option, though, and slightly cheaper than the STC ones.
