I don't know why I put this off so long, especially living in Florida, but I really need to buy one of these, and perhaps two strenghths. The prices of these are all over the map. I don't want junk, but I don't want to pay far more than I need to. Kenny, I know you use these I would appreciate your guidance and anyone else who would like to chime in. Thanks much.

I do use grads, but not on a regular basis, so I use the Cokin P range... If I was a serious landscape photographer I would definitely buy the Lee filters, expensive but excellent...

My entire Cokin filter system contains 4 filters...
P 153 Neutral Grey ND4
P 121M Neutral Grey Grad ND4
P 121F Full Neutral Grad ND8
P 120 Gradual Grey (has a slight red bias on Canon cameras, great for sunsets)

If you use lightroom you really do not need many filters. I have one left its a lee 4 stop mainly just use a good circular polarizer here in FL. I am in Ft Myers. Lightrooms grad takes care of anything you might need.

I argree Easy8, although I have a load of different grads from my film days, and I normally carry a set of the usual ones I almost never use them, I either "grad" it in lightroom or photoshop (depending on what I'm using for that edit)
Anybody remember the dreaded tabaco grad filter that was so popular at one time. Haven't seen one used for years now.....
