Formatt / Hi-Tech Wide angle filter holder

[mark_farrell]

Does anyone use this? I've seen a few people mentioning using the Lee holders for HiTech filters, but does anyone use Formatt's own wide-angle holder, and have they found any problems of vignetting on wide angle lenses such as 17-40L or at the wide end of the 24-105L?

Cheers,

Mark

Sorry, I don't use the HiTech holder; the Cokin seem perfect :thumbs:

I use the wideangle holder & regular holder, both from Cokin, and both are great.

Hi Mark,

Yes i have one, it's as good as any tbh. On full frame you may get some vignetting at 17mm. I used to get some up to 12mm on a crop.

Cheers! I should have said it's on a FF 5DII....

On another topic, has anyone used Hi-Tech's very dark NDs such as 2.1, 2.4 or 3.0?

Yup, I have and used the HiTech ND 3.0; for the price, it was good, but there was a bit of light leak that caused a colour cast. I've since bought myself the B+W screw filter instead.
