Cokin Filters

Postby Jeff on Mon Jan 24, 2011 12:18 pm

Hi Guys
Going to try some landscapes and require some filters.
I have decided on the Cokin system . Do we know of a good supplier in the Sydney area, on the Northern Beaches would be good but not necessary .
Thanks
Jeff

I have bought some in the past from Vanbar in Camperdown, but I don't know that they are any better than anywhere else.

FWIW, Kenko-Tokina Company Ltd., Japan today announced that it acquired the famous French filter manufacturer COKIN SAS July 5, 2011. Distribution to retailers has been a little spotty ever since.

Jeff, Also consider Hi-tech filters. The magenta cast is less with these.
