Lee Seven Five filter width

[F70100]

I'm pricing up a change from DSLR to MFT. Is it a stupid assumption to think that the Lee seven five system filters are 75mm wide? I couldn't find filter dimensions on their website.

If so, has anyone ever cut down any 85mm filters to fit, just to get started?

They are indeed 75mm wide. The grad filters are 75x90mm. Never tried cutting any 85's down but that sounds like a doable option.

Thanks for the quick reply - makes budget calcs a bit more palatable

Yes, I've cut down Kood 85mm filters for use in a Seven5 filter holder, no problems at all.

Hi Richard - what did you use to cut them - mini hacksaw?

Update - I was able to cut down some resin 85mm filters to 75mm with a £2.50 B&Q tungsten tipped tile cutter. I think the filters would have been too brittle for the mini hacksaw.
