    hey folks!

    Just wondering if anyone uses or has come accross a small pouch or bag wearable around the waist or strapped onto a belt etc.
    it would want to only fit about 3 Lee type filters e.g. 100x150mm (resin / glass type) and 2 or 3 Round screw on polarizer/big stopper type filters.

    I havent seen anything like this as someone whos been out a few times just doing landscape photography particularly on beaches it would be something hand y to have so i can leave the bag on rocks 100 feet away or so and just take off a filter when permitting and slot it into the small waiste pouch.

    There is this but there isnt many shots showing its interior. :(

    So it would need to be soft lined too.
    Any recommendations appreciated,
    Cheers
    Nick.

    lol replying to my own thread!
    this looks interesting any other alternatives as Ill have to see later exactly how the filters slot into this, looking for something efficient i can simply slide filters in and out.

    I was just looking at them this morning myself.

    Maybe this might be of use to you, no real pictures of it but if you were around Dublin you could have a look in the shop yourself:

    Or else you could have a look in your local Camera store as I'm sure they would have something similar.

    Something like this?

    DON'T go for the cloth ones. They bend and will smudge or scratch the surface of the soft plastic of the filters. Don't be lazy, get proper solid case and keep it in your bag. When using filters, you have to slow down your shooting, so picking one proper case from a pocket or a bag should not cause any issues for you.

    Cheers DaLad and lol at effects perfect!

    Cheers Thonda I already have the felty cloth Lee 10 holder came with the filters, I happen to see a post relating to issues but these filter have been unused for sometime until I bought them from a friend they are perfect!?
    Jus wanted to have something when your in that tricky to get out of spot I can grab a filter or take one off rather that chuck it in a jacket pocket which I've done very time if been out. Thanks for the recommendation will keep looking.

    How about this;

    At least each filter has it's own little bit of space? Expensive though all the same. Check your local chemists. They usually have cheapo cases for compact cameras that soften have extra pockets and such, and they're handy.

    I bought one before that perfectly fitted a flashgun. Always worth a look.

    Thanks KKV running some 100x150mm filters unfortunately they dont fit that one I did see it nice spot.

    Looking at the Cokin Z306 seems to fit the bill, (as per above but the z306 version to fit 100x150 filters.)
