Cheers Jeff, They do look pretty sturdy alright, hard to find stockists though, And they are no cheaper than the other 3 or 4 that do 150mm filters.

Cheers Irek, the 15-30mm is a savage lens. The size and weight are not an issue as it's well balanced on the K1.
I knew when I got it that I may not keep it as it's a lot of money tied up in one lens.
I might have to look at selling it on and try and find a 20-35mm to replace it along with a decent filter system as that's something I'd love to try out.

Magic!

Could you find a minute or two to give us an illustrated article on the set-up / technique, please?

Please!

Roger.
I think this guy explains it better than I could.
Someone posted it to one of my shots on face ache last night.

Why stop now,

A few light trails, the first is pretty much as shot, bar levels tweaks, the rest came from the depths of my weird imagination :rofl:
All K1 and 15-30mm

Really nice set, 9, 10, 11 and 12 for me, with 12 pipping it.

It's hard to know with any of them.
All seem to have good and bad bits.
The fotodiox is one I had looked at anyway and is a beast just like the lens, I do like it though.
The nisi s5 has a geared wheel to rotate the cpl and can be used with 1 circular filter and 1 sqr or 2 sqr filters stacked.
The kase looks good too.
Hitech formatt firecrest are pretty decent filters but not for this lens.

Thanks for the link Dave, I hadn't seen your post Cheers.

Decisions decisions 😞

Cheers Peter, cheers Stuart.
I'm just trying to see what my options are and the cost of filters plus system.

Striking image Peter, how was it in colour.
Any colour cast ?

There seems to be a few types available, fotodiox pana 66, Lee 150, haida or nisi,
Don't know about hi-tec.
If it is advertised as fitting the Tamron 15-30mm does that mean it will fit the pentax ?

Cheers
