The filter side of the industry has undergone quite a bit of change in recent years. Some of the traditional players (Lee, for example) have updated many of their filters to provide superior performance. And quite a few new players have emerged to consider (HiTech, Breakthrough, Wine Country, Benro, etc.).
Some are OEM'ing filters, others are more proprietary.
I think with some of the upgrading the traditional companies have done, and the more expansive line of choices from the newer players, there isn't necessarily a bad choice, but there may be some aspects that push one or the other ahead in some way, depending on subjective preferences.
We don't carry them all, so I was thinking this could be a good reference thread for those who are curious about recommendations.
For anyone replying - the question is:
* What brand filters do you use and why?
For the purpose of this thread, I'm more interested in the filters themselves, rather than filter holding systems (some here do not use filter holding systems at all). But secondarily, comments on the filter holding/attaching system would certainly be relevant as well.
