Hey fellow landscape photographers,
Today I launched a new line of Neutral Density and UV filters on Kickstarter called the X-Series filters: http://www.breakthrough.photography/ (http://http://www.breakthrough.photography/)
I've spent the last 6 months researching, designing and testing hundreds of prototypes to get to this point, and I'm really excited to share these with you:
- X3: Brass Traction frame, SCHOTT B270 Germany, MRC16, nanotec®, 3.2mm double-threaded and weather-sealed
- X2: Aluminum Traction frame, AGC Japan, MRC8, nanotec®, 3.5mm double-threaded and weather-sealed
- X1: Aluminum standard flat black, MRC4, nanotec®, 3.5mm double-threaded and weather-sealed.
The X3 and X2 come in both 3-stop, 6-stop and UV, whereas the X1 is UV.
Also right now and during the Kickstarter launch they are essentially 50% off until the end of the launch.
So a 82mm X1 UV filter with MRC4, weather-sealing and 3.5mm on the frame height is only $20.
Or a 82mm Neutral Density 6-stop Brass Traction Frame with MRC16, nanotec® and weather-sealing with an ultra-slim 3.2mm frame height is $149, but during this launch it's only $80 USD.
If you have any questions, if you're interested in backing the project or if you just want to check out our launch video, check it out here:

The products look great. I've signed on as a backer on Kickstarter, and will encourage others to do so.

your links seem to have some errors, neither of them took me to the site. I had to strip out some quotation marks first.
For others having problems try this link

Care to explain why you are using Art Wolfe's name in your subject line?

If you built a house in the American Southwest of bricks made of straw and locally sourced clay, what would you call it?

Well, if it has a roof and no windows, I might call it Darkroom. But if it had no roof, I might call it LightRoom™. ;)
But I don't think I'd call it Art Wolfe.
Sorry to wander off topic. Just musing on "what's in a name?"
