Cokin Gradual ND Kit with Holder

£47/$83

This kit consists of a holder and a trio of filters in the popular P Series (83 x 99mm)

size. That’s large enough to just about cover an 82mm-diameter lens, though you can expect vignetting on wide-angle optics, and there isn’t much room for vertical adjustment to suit your horizon position.

The filters vary in both density and transition. You get 1-stop and 2-stop grads, both with a hard transition, and the third filter is a 3-stopper with a soft transition. This lets you stack the two lighter filters to effectively create a 3-stop hard grad.

Despite the relatively low kit price, exposure consistency between the filters in our kit only varied by 1/3 of a stop.
