Filter Case for Hitech 85's

[RaglanSurf]

Morning All,

I've trawled the forum for answer and can't find what I'm after.

I have a set of 6 Hitech 85 grads and the 85mm Pro Stop 10 and I've been looking for a case that will preferably hold them all, or a smaller one that I could split them between 2 and if they could hold the holder and a couple of adapter rings that would be brilliant.

I have seen on some threads that people have used CD holders but I've looked at mine and I think the filters would be too susceptible to scratching so have booted that idea into touch.

So what does everybody else use?

Cheers

I made my own as i could justify the cost of buying a folded bit of fabric, then i moved to Lee filters and it was no longer needed as they came in individual nylon pouches
You are welcome to have it if you are still coming to the film meet, only holds 6 of the 85mm filters though

Thanks for the offer Rob, I'm trying to source one for this weekend but if I haven't managed it I may well take you up on your offer, I'm still planning on coming to the "Slightly More Northern Film Meet" I've got my ticket so as long as disaster doesn't strike or I get offered a weeks work somewhere I'll be there.

When I used 85mm filters I kept them in a CD wallet, you can get them anywhere, then write on the sleeves in permanent pen what they contain for quick reference.

Edited to add ignore me, I'm an idiot, didn't see you'd already tried that.

If it helps I never scratched mine when I used one.

I have the larger Hitechs and use this. It's o.k.

All the CD cases I've got have a an open section at the front leaving a lot of the filter exposed, that's what was worrying me.

Thanks, that's the sort of thing, just a shame it's out of stock.

Lowe Pro do a filter holder that looks quite good.
