Filter case question

Bump.

I'm interested in any thoughts on this too. I use one of these P-type filter wallets and have had reservations (but it seems to me to be no less suitable that the plastic sleeves that my filters came in). My reckoning is that almost any speck/scratch on the filter will not show on the image, in pretty much the same way that specks/scratches on the front element of a lens won't. My concern is that over time, there might be a cumulative effect of abrasion related scratches that will impair the optical quality of the filter. I suppose that a smooth microfibre pocket would be the best option (if kept free of debris) but, sourcing/manufacturing issues aside, this seems a lot of bother, when in the field, compared to a wallet that can be shoved in the pocket and from which the filter of choice can be selected and removed with little ado.

That's my concern, also.
 
I received the case a few weeks ago and I don't use it.
I don't feel comfortable enough to put my quality filters in it, since I feel it can be a bit abrasive to the glass overtime.

So, I have to find another one. I just need 4 filter slots. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Thanks
