Filter Kit for A1

This would be my question too. With screw-in graduated filters, you don't have much option where to position your horizon in the shot. With Cokin slide-in filters, you have much more control. But the alternative lens hoods for stills photography (that fit Cokin or other filter holders) are not suitable for wide-angle shots with a widescreen video camera.

I am not aware of anything that exists for the Cokin series. However, you can buy the LEE brand holder which has a compendium shade (a collapsible shade with a holder for 4" x 4" x 2mm filters or 4x5.65").
