I know everyone seems to rave about the LEE system but obviously the price is a lot more than the Cokin P type. I am hoping to do a lot more Lanscape work using a wide angle 10-24 or 12-24 and would like a filter system to use ND Grads. Is it worth me getting the Cokin setup for this sort of lens or do I really have to keep saving until I can afford the LEE kit.

Comments greatly appreciated

Try the Lee holder (very sturdy) with Hitech filters.

You can get a Hitehc 1, 2 and 3 stop Grad filter set for the price of one Lee filter.

Not as good quality as the Lee but more than worth the price
 
Using a 10mm lens you will experience a small amount of vignetting even with 100mm filters the p type will not serve. I use Cokin Z pro and have no problems with them for 10 stop a Hellipan thin frame screw in absolutely no vignetting. Initially with the Cokin 100 mm and their holder there was a small amount of vignetting as I said but I now use the Lee wide angle adapter and problem solved. I will probably get a Lee holder eventually as the adapter is 0.5mm small for the Cokin but it works!
 
Big thanks for all comments, these Forums are brilliant, I'm now hunting EBay for a second hand LEE filter holder then will look at the Hitech filters.

Thanks again
Chris
