I already have your basic 3 filter kit. With PL, ND-4, and ND-8. My question is how would the Cinema Shutter models compare to the ND polarizer combined filters that come in the new Professional 6 Pak Kit? I mainly use a 16 right now but I want the absolute best color and clarity possible. Thanks so much for all your help in this forum too. Be placing my order tonight.
The Cinema Series filters use a slightly better grade glass that has a lower refractive index, as well as multi AR coatings to reduce lens flaring. The main difference you will see is with the AR Coating with reducing the lens flaring when shooting towards the sun. The differences between the glass grades are pretty subtle and most would not notice a difference unless you are doing production work and cropping down 4K resolutions. I personally shoot the Cinema Series Vivid Collection the most, specifically the ND8/PL and the ND16/PL.
So you really like having a polarizer going most of the time then? Is it easy to set the rotation right on it? I feel like I really need a good 32 as well for those midday shoots. Sorry to bug so much man.
I personally like the effect of the polarizer (reduced glare and increased saturation). Some people would much rather just shoot ND's and not have to worry about setting polarization each time. It is definitely a bit more work to set polarization for each shot, but I think its worth putting in the extra time.
Just ordered the Cinema Shutter series Jeff. Def need a good 32. Can't wait to try your 16 too because I've been using a cheaper 16. Can't wait to compare the two. Thx so much man. Do I send you my email or do you get it from my order? Here is my order number Order #2299920926
Thank you very much for the order, yes please send me an email with your order number so I can get the P4 Lens Cover and Case added in there!
Later I'll share the videos ... Thank you Jeff!

Thanks for the post! We definitely do sell individual filters, just shoot me an email with which ones you would like and I will get you taken care of. We dont offer the single sku filters in retail packaging for our resellers just yet. It is something we are working on, but in the meantime you can order which ever filter you would like from us.
I know what you mean. I'm disgusted that I can't go into my local supermarket and buy them. It's a conspiracy to make me go right into town, organised by the bus company.
