Magnetic filter holders (Page 2): I have some of them, and they're great. I think someone bought out the original company, though. I'm glad I kept what I have.

Yes, I've been looking at Kase as well. I would really like to use the polarizer I have and wish one of these systems would allow it instead of buying a second one.

For what it's worth, K&F Concepts is now offering a magnetic filter system with CPL, VND, ND8, ND64, ND1000 and a couple black mist filters.

I haven't used those, but have been impressed with a couple K&F CPL that I bought just to give them a try. They claim to use Schott glass and nano multi-coatings, much like the B+W filters I usually use.

K&F are made in China, I think. But, hey, lots of things are made in China.

They certainly are less expensive than a lot of other brands!

I got my k9 used from a nice gentleman on ebay, I got really lucky. I got the filter holder with the polarizer and one of the ND filters. A kit comes with the Pol filter, some nd’s

This kind of magnetic system becomes very popular in recent years (albeit can be expensive like Lee). I just came back from a photo tour and almost every body had one except me. But I also discovered that the filter plates are prone to slip and fall when you unintentionally contact them or your camera bump into something that cause a slight jerk. I witnessed that happened several times during the tour. So that makes me think that, if I buy one, I would consider the card type slot system instead of magnetic (they are fast but not secure).

About a year ago I switched to The kase system. Love it. They even had a system for my Nikon z 14-24. I also have them for my 77mm filter lenses. At times, I used to hesitate using filters as the screw in can be a pain but really like the kase system. Pricey to change over but I think it was worth it.

A company called Breakthrough Photography has magnetic holders for ND filters and others. They were developing a polarizer system a few years ago, but I never followed up. There system is expensive but very professionally made and support is excellent. Might try them direct. Breakthrough Photography. com

Interesting that they would slip considering the reviews for several of the brands say the strength of the hold is very secure.

Thanks, I'll look at them as well.

I have an Xume 77mm set. They work great and wish I had more.

Be careful when trying to stack filters on the Xume system . I have found that one filter is the limit. Too many and the whole package falls off. Maybe Sing-ray has improved the magnet strength. Singh-ray must have bought the Xume line from Manfrotto.

Okay, good to know.
