I had bought a while back some Cokin plastic ones but I think this will be much better. The only thing is it is backordered, so who knows when I will get it. Adorama had it for $129.

Wow! A whole year! I'll give it a few weeks then decide, probably will end up cancelling if it will take that long. Wonder why, it's just a
piece of dark glass! You would think they could make them quicker for the customers.
