Re: 4x4 filters
If you decide to go the "inexpensive" route and get something like the Cokin Z-Pro 4x4's, be aware that they are not a true 4x4 filter and will not fit in the Chrosziel matte box filter frames. The Filter Connection (2filter.com) advertises them as "4x4's that will fit most 100x100mm matte boxes." Not true. Even Cokin's site gives no clue that they do not actually measure 4x4. The filters measure 4x5.75". If you buy these (grads are around $54) be prepared to cut them down to fit. They will work in the Formatt (Bogen) box.
BTW, when I called Filter Connection to inquire about this inaccuracy I was told the guy in charge would call me back. Never heard from him.
