Red face Box for your filters

I'm looking for a box to put my filters in. As i'm getting quiet a few now. Those pouches don't look very save to me. Or am I wrong?

I can't find a seller who sells something suitable. What do you use? Could you give a direction of were to get it from?

Re: Box for your filters

The ones that don't sit on the lenses I keep in the circular plastic boxes they come in. If I want to use one, I just swap them over - the one on the lens goes into the box and the other goes onto the lens.

I keep the ones that are not in use in a pocket in the bag or in a handy crevice in the bag. I've never had so many that I need to put them in a separate box.

Re: Box for your filters

Further to my last post - if you are talking about square filters, you can get

FILTER WALLETS

to keep them in.

Re: Box for your filters

For the screw in ones I use the original plastic boxes they came in and for my Lee filters I use plastic resealable bags.

Re: Box for your filters

Most of them are screwed on and hardly ever come off. But I'm asking because I'm going to Holland next month. And i'm taking my gear with me. Now I will have a lot of different lighting situations as in going to the beach on hopefully a sunny day. Or going into the woods. So I want to take my filters with me.

I do keep them in there original boxes. Just thought it would be handy to keep them together in one box.

Re: Box for your filters

Mine live in a small camera bag (with a shoulder strap) (the type of bag used for a compact camera, nothing fancy), each individual filter still in its own original box. That way, they don't clog up my main camera bag/rucksack + I can leave them behind when not needed, or if I want to take them with, then simply pick up the little camera bag with them all in. No messing about.
