For 52mm I'd use an "A" style. Anything over 55mm, I use the P primarily. I also have a set of 4x4's for my large format work as well.

great ,

so maybe i have the p with the adaptors , so i can use for the 52mm , and the zoom .

i wanted to have a serious mattebox + filters holder , but i couldnt find any that fit the CM3

I use the 52mm Cokin "A" series filter holder for my Nikon, very efficient, and changing filters is a breeze.

 

And although I realize it's still 35mm film, this topic probably belongs in a non-cinema forum.
