I'm just making up my list for my next ("landscape") shopping trip, and I'm hung up on the polariser situation.
I'll be picking up a Zeiss 21mm, Lee Foundation Holder Kit, Lee 82 mm Wide Angle Adapter Ring (for the new Zeiss and my 24-70), a Lee 4x4 Big Stopper 10 Stop ND Filter, and maybe another filter set to play with.
The Lee 105 mm Circular Polarizer Filter is grotesquely priced, and I'd need to buy the accessory ring (I think). $600 to add a polariser to my rig? I don't see the value in that.
I could go with the 100 x 100mm Square Polariser (which I think could be rotated just fine in tandem with any solid ND filter, or on its own), but this option leaves me grumbling as well (at almost $400). I think I'd rather pay the $600 to get something that could be rotated independently.
I'm new to square filters. Historically I've always used screw-in filters. None of my screw-ins are large enough for my current lenses (or the Zeiss), hence the system change. Maybe I'm missing something in my interpretation of how I should be using the 100mm Lee system for landscapes?
For those of you who are using the Lee 100mm filter system, how are you utilizing polarisers with the system? I consider polarisers incredibly important for landscape photography: ultimately more important than ND filters. Historically I've always run a polariser.
