Cokin P305 Storage Box - Holds 10 "P" Series Filters

Comments about Cokin P305 Storage Box - Holds 10 "P" Series Filters:

Filter storage and transport has always been one of my banes, with wallets having trouble with stuff slipping into the pouches or pressure rubbing the sides against the filters, so a static box that keeps the filters apart in such a compact format has been wonderful. Now if someone could just make something like this for circular filters....

Top stays on even when it's full and picked up by the top. Great way to keep all my filters in one safe place.

The box is made of cheap plastic that will break if hit... I will not use it but will carry my filters in their original box as is much more resistant.

A small price to pay for protecting ones filters.

I've now used this box for about a year. The lid falls off when trying to put it away resulting in my fingers touching the filters and the lid contacting the filters (plastic on plastic) risking scratches. The case cracked early on but I've kept using it. I lost the lid while taking photos standing on a rock in a river last weekend. I'm now noticing scratching on the edges of all the filters from riding in the plastic carrier slots. If I'd paid $5.99 for this thing it would be no big deal, but at [$] I expected more than I got. Looking for alternative now.

Its a bit huge which is the main disadvantage and you really dont need it!.

It is a bit overpriced for a simple plastic box, but it does the job of holding ten filters and is certainly perferable to lugging around the single filter holders.

The coupling is a bit weak and may need a rubber band.

I would have liked a smaller box, one that held only 3-5 filters and one with a lid that did not fall off so easily.
The box does what it is supposed to though. I guess I could tape the lid on and buy more filters to fill it up.

The box is robust and works for holding 10 filters. However the filters are not really fixed and kind of loose in there. Also the known problem with the lit that doesn't stay on is a little annoying.

This is great for holding your filters. The filters slide right in and are held apart from each other by molded in plastic standoffs. I would give this 5 stars, but the top does not stay on. I modified it by using one of those long velcro straps that are sold for keeping extension cords neat. Basically wrap the velcro around the box to secure the cover, then use a piece of tape to secure the velcro. Simple fix.

Excellent product to keep the filters and to take with me.

Holds Cokin square and rectangular filters. That was important to me because I have some graduated filters, and also the Net filters are rectangular. Works fine for it's purpose, but the lid doesn't stay on securely. A piece of gaffer's tape fixes that.

It holds filters but it is cheap made and impossible to keep the lid on. It does do its job with the use of a rubber band!

I used this P305 Storage Box to store the Rosco Roscolux SwatchbookMfr# 950SBLUX0103 B&H# ROSBR & Rosco Cinegel Swatchbook - 1.75 x 2.75"Mfr# 950SBCNG0103 B&H# ROSBCR.
I like how this little box just seems to be made to store these swatchbooks. I keep the lid secure with a rubber band, as the top does not "lock" into place.

This storage box is a convenient case for your Cokin "P" Series (85mm) filters. I find it easier to extract a single box from my gear bag than a collection of individual boxes.

One tip: Use a piece of gaffer's tape to hold the top on. Otherwise I find when pulling the box from my bag I get the top while the rest stays in. Another thing I do is keep a list of filter factors for each filter taped to the outside.

Could be a bit more streamline, but it saves a lot of space compared to the indivisual Cokin cases. I have found I can easily slip it into the cargo pocket on my pants and keep several filters handy.
