Large Filters for Large Format

[artok]

I am the new owner of an old but well-kept Plaubel 8x10 setup, from which I am building a camera for architectural, landscape and special purpose photography. I currently have two lenses, Schneider Angulon 210/6.8 and CZJ 360/4.5 (barrel type). I am finding it difficult to purchase filters for the latter; the thread is 112mm. Are there manufacturers producing that size screw-in filters? Anyone try the Cokin X-PRO system? From the literature I gather it should cover 112mm.

Schneider do a some B+W 112mm filters - http://www.schneiderkreuznach.com/pdf/filter/bw_filter_programm_e.pdf

Robert White will order non stock filters as a special order - http://www.robertwhite.co.uk/default.asp

Also Robert White stock a range of Lee Pro Filters, which are 130mm wide - http://www.robertwhite.co.uk/products.asp?PT_ID=549

The 130mm Pro Filters take an addaption of the standard filter carrier

Good luck
