Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Cokin Filter Holder P with 77mm Adpater Ring & 28 Page Instruction Book for Cokin P system

Customer Review: Big disappointment, poor quality, lots of vignetting.
Summary: 1 Stars

If you're buying this product with the 77 mm adapter ring, you likely own/use pricy lenses and might be seriously involved in photography whether pro or hobbyist. Nice but...my prediction is that you might not like this product at all!

- While it does the job, i.e. holds filters, it is made of really cheap plastic. I don't mind but inserting a filter is not something I enjoy. Lifespan seems to be long but each time I use it I swear it's gonna be the last time :(

- While it holds up to 3 square filters + one circular, which is nice, forget about wide angle shots. Forget focal lengths below 28-30 mm--especially for these landscape long exposure/small aperture shots--the filter holder shows in the corners--check your viewfinder or LCD screen before you leave the photoshoot spot as chances are you'll have to re-shoot. What's the point of using pricy quality lenses if it's to add ugly non-artsy vignetting to your shots, eh? :(

- While I carry this item in my photobag, I end up holding filters in my hands most of the times, i.e. the filter holder is useless; both uneasy and inconvenient. Turnarounds:
i. purchase the Cokin BPW700 Filter Holder, P Series, Wide Angle but you end up w/2 redundant products in your photo bag while a single one with a better design would have been so convenient and simple,
ii. purchase larger filters and use them handheld :(

- Last, the manufacturer claims this is a super flexible product/system. It is...but only if you purchase smart accessories of the same...brand :( Example: say you put big bucks into a third party 77 slim circ pola filter w/o front thread, you better buy a cokin pola to combine pola and whatever P filter using the filter holder as you won't be able to put both on your lens :(

Bottom line: I just hate the design and built. It might work for you but my recommendation is to take the time to think your purchase and/or borrow one from a friend, ask his/her opinion and go field-test it!
