Unique filter case for your solid ND and CPL filters.
This is a pretty neat filter holder that fits my needs almost perfectly. I used to carry a 3 graduated filters and three solid filters Lin with a polarizer and the filter holder. This required a large case like the Mindshift Hive, that took up a ton of space in my bag. However, a few months ago I made the decision to stop using graduated filters because their effect can easily and more efficiently be crated in post. Now I only carry 3, 6 and 10 stop solid ND filters and a polarizer, so I don’t need such a big case.That’s where this case comes in. It fits these 4 filters perfectly with zero left over space! 3 slots for the 100x100mm NDs and one wider slot for my polarizer. It’s nice and compact and it’s a hard case so the filters feel much more secure than they ever did in the soft cases I’ve used in the past. The addition of the ribbon that helps pull the filters up for easy access is ingenious. Works really well and saves me from having to dig my fat fingers through the case to try and pull out a filter. Really neat idea!My only “complaint” is that the closure doesn’t seal the contents from the outside completely. The top lays pretty flush with the opening of the case and it has a string magnetic closure, but there’s still the slightest sliver of an opening that can potentially allow dirt, lint or other debris to enter. But this isn’t a deal breaker and the gap is much smaller than I’ve seen with any other case except those with full zipper closures.In summary, I would absolutely recommend this case for someone who has only these 4 filters to carry. I can’t imagine there’s a slimmer, better protected and easier access case out there for this.
