Anyone see these new filters from B+W?

HA HA!!! I was thinking the SAME thing!

Might be selling my KSM CPL and pick up one of these!

I'm positive we suffer from the same affliction.

Moreso the fact that they are advertising 8 layer coating of which the outside is designed to be very easy to clean.

Huh? Where can I read about the 8 layer coating?

Shiny black box with silver foil lettering and the "Premium" written down the side. They sure know my weaknesses.

I haven't come across anything on this CP, I got it because B&H labelled it as a "New Item."

I guess my weakness is "New Item."

I'm sorry for aggravating your condition.

BTW...B&H has these sizes in stock now: 49mm, 55mm, 62mm, 67mm, and 72 mm.

Thanks. I kept going to the German website.

Anybody seen the 77MM TRUE-MATCH VARI-ND KIT?

Is this better than the Singh-Ray Vari-ND filter?

I'm thinking of getting the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II later...I don't see an 82mm version of the TRUE-MATCH VARI-ND KIT.

you would go through all that hassle just because the nano is "easier" to clean ?

Why not? Hassle once, clean many. You do the math.

Absolutely, as I stated before the Hoya pro1 made it so frustratingly hard to clean that I gave it away in a lens sale and upgraded to the HD model. Sometimes convenience is worth the cost.

Even after trying multiple ways to clean the Pro1 I wasn't able to get it perfectly streak free.
