Which filters?

[BIGEYE]

Looks like the most popular filters (well the ones that get mentioned the most) are Cokin & Lee. Which ones are recommended for landscape photography to get of those blown out skies?

If you can afford them then Lee filters offer the best quality but come at a price.
For your application it sounds like you need ND grad filters.
Cokin ND grads are renowned for creating a magenta cast. Have a look at the Hitech offerings, relatively inexpensive but better than Cokin.

I was in the same boat as you, ive opted for the lee foundation kit with 77mm wide angle adapter for my siggy 10-20mm and a set of hitech 100mm nd grads and a single 0.6 (2 stop) nd filter.

Hadn't heard of Hitech before, but they do interest me.

Formatt are an alternative filter brand to consider.
