There is a big problem with "knock off filters" if that is what you MEANT to say, as breach of copyright harms us all so don't buy knock off filters

I assume you meant to say "third party filters"

If you were a business and your items were "forged" how would you feel.  Buy GENUINE products

If you can't afford proper new filters don't support China, buy pre owned from Ebay

So are you saying don't ever buy "third party filters"?

If you READ what I said I NEVER said don't buy third party filters, I clearly stated don't buy copyright infringed, filters, not forged, Chinese stolen copyright as they do with Apple i phone, copied Canon lenses, etc, the Chinese have got rich ripping off decent companies the wold over

Keep your hair on - it obviously wasn't that clear - and still isn't on rereading the post - to me at least - hence the question.....

No that's not what I meant to say, what I meant to say is what I actually typed.

Here it is for you again so you can have another looksy

But don't worry, I ended up buying H&Y filters from here in the UK (Genuine of course).

And I'd highly recommend them to anyone in the market for a new system.
