Lee Filter Advice

Looking to start using some filters, it seems that LEE is the best system around. I use a Fuji X-T1, not sure if I should go for the standard 100mm filters or the Seven5. Any suggestions?

Thinking about a filter holder, hard ND Grad and a big stopper to begin with.
 
Seven5 system is great with smaller cameras but the only limiting factor maybe that the largest diameter adaptor ring is for 72mm filter size so depends on what lenses you have or intend to get. Not sure how the Seven5 lens might vignette on very wide angle lenses.
 
Seven5 here on my XT1. Works just fine. It is possible to get a bit of vignetting on the Samyang 12mm with the filter holder set diagonally, otherwise the only drawback is the price of the polariser!

The 100mm system would dwarf the camera!
 
My advice is to buy into the 100mm system should you ever want to change systems to crop or FULL frame.
 
I've got both. The seven5 is great on that 18-55 and 14, but not big enough for the 10-24. I planned on moving fully to seven 5 but find myself stuck now. The 100mm transitions are not optimal for the smaller lenses and if you get the seven 5, not big enough for the 10-24.

For me, if travelling light, I use 14mm and seven5 and otherwise the full size and 10-24. Sorry it's not a great answer, but the 10-24 has complicated matters.
