With the filters I was a bit concerned that the Lee are 100 x 150mm and the Cokin and Hitec somewhat shorter 100 x 125mm I think, do you find this is enough to place the graduation where you want it? Would not be using them on small lens the smallest I have is 52 and I doubt I would need a graduated filter for that.

Z-PRO Filter dimensions :
- Standard Filters 100x100mm (4x4").
- Graduated Filters 100x150mm (4x6").
- Polarizer Filters Ø100mm.
And Formatt (hitech) also has 100x150mm
Like Martin said it's sometimes a problem to place the transition correctly since it is so graduate with the cokin filter.
But still found them to work though.

Hi Anvh
My understanding is that most lens will focus a little past infinity to allow for expansion and contraction, OK in normal use but it creates problems with stars

Basically, the advice about panels above is largely good, but dependent on budget my preference would be to get a good TN panel and calibration device over a budget non-TN panel without one.

I believe setting it to infinite is far enough or not?

About the OS, it's already said before but pentax has his OS (SR) build-in in the body so every lens has OS.

Just to add another angle to this subject - a lot of people will use no filters at all. Blending two exposures has the exact same effect as grad-ND, is a lot more versatile and a whole lot cheaper
I've a cokin Z-pro GND set but hardly use them since I ain't really into landscapes. They are usefull in some situations but the dynamic range of the camera sensor has beeing increasing so you can do more in post processing now. When going down the PP route used RAW though since jpeg cuts the dynamic range (I believe).

Might this one do the trick, it looks big enough for a day trip. link
