GH2 Tiffen's Indie Starter Kit vs Singh-Ray's Thin Mount Vari-ND

I got a chance to try faderND last year during my vacation at Mexico.
it worked good on 14-140mm at 14mm up to 50 and up to 3 or 4 stops light reduction.
Beyond that the video was unacceptable to my taste.
Switched to VaryND - it's different league!

So basically if you plan to stay under 50mm focal length then use LC MKII, if you want to go past 50mm then use the Singh Ray?

I'll post some high res jpegs later on but I have done some no filter vs tiffen ND vs LCW Fader mkii, vs cheap ebay screw on ND comparissons at 17mm, 50mm, 70mm, 200mm.

Its not the most scientific test but its about as scientific as I get and it confirmed that at 17 and 50 the LCW is not far off of the Tiffen and at 70 its bareable, however at 200.. no contest.
