Their filters are excellent, and many come in a "thin" version. Their naming convention is also much easier than Kodak's or B&W, since the spectral response is directly indicated. I have the 665, 695 and 715 filters; I use the 665 or 695 with SFX or Maco, and the 715 with Maco for a stronger IR effect.
