Filters & Sigma 10-20

CPL's can be used with the 10-20. They may be an uneven effect from polarisation due to the vast angle of the lens. There may be some vignetting from a thick filter. The Hoya Pro ones are thin.
Cokin P and similar systems can also be used with this lens, though with vignetting at the wide end, unless perhaps the holder is modified.

Ther is also a Z-pro serie from cokin, you can reverse mount the filter holder so that you get a slim filter. The filters are also 100mm wide so filters from other systems also fit in it.
Z-pro is more expensive though but the filters are higher qualty then the P ones also.

I have used a circular grad filter on my Tamron 18-250, but from what I have read the Cokin system is superior to the circular ones.
So my question is do the Cokin system work with the Sigma (using a wide-angle holdall), and with the correct sized adaptor will work with the Tamron?
Also are there any issues with CPL's on the Sigma (don't know how good/bad the one I have acquired is)?
I'm very happy with the Hoya green coloured range on the Tamron, so would probably go down this route again.
All advice greatly appreciated.

Adrian
