Default REQ: Cokin Circular polariser filter

I'm just wondering if any one knows where I can buy a Cokin P series Circular Polarizer filter. Cathay Photo and MS Color do not have it any more

Thanks for any info

I don't think they are very good. I own one 28mm Cokin Circular Polariser for Nikon 885 and the lamination has peeled.

Oh well, I've already bought into the system, might as well go through with it. Strange that no one is bringing it in anymore

u referring to the Cokin P series Circular Polariser?

CP jus ran out of stock. they'll be bringing them in soon. these Circurlar Polarisers costs around S$60-80(forgot the actual price) and are always sold out as soon as they hit the stores. u might wanna check with CP and reserve one.

i would say that they are only of normal quality and moderate performance unlike the very expensive B+W or Nikon Circular Polarisers.

but hey, u get to mount them on ur P Series holder(together with ur other Cokin filters) and the moderate performance is good enough for me.

Thanks for the info. I'm very new to photography, so as not to spend too much, the cheapest option for using the circular polarizers for my 18-50 and 70-300 is the cokin P series as all my lenses are all different sizes.

Think I'll take your advice and reserve with CP. I had called them up and they didn't know when the shipment will come in
