I need a good pouch to hold my 4x5/4x6 GND filters. I've got a little Adorama pouch that works well, but it only holds 5. My ideal is to hold 4-6 GNDs and have another slot or two for my circular polarizer etc. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Scott,

I'm a die-hard cheapskate and use an old CD carrying case. You know, nylon outside, individual sleeves inside, zips around the side? Of course, they're not as widespread as they used to be, but Amazon or a thrift store will still have some. Look for one that has sleeves with the flecking material so that it doesn't scratch. I think Art Wolfe (or George Wolfe in OP?) recommended it a bunch of years back.

Just a thought.

Thanks Mark - I should mention that the Adorama slinger pouch has a strap to put on my belt, so that's nice....I can have all my filters easily accessible without having to get into my backpack again. I'll look for a CD case with a similair strap.

I have a kinesis filter pouch I don't use if you want it, make me a lowball offer and I'll probably take it :biggrin:
