I use the SW-150 and the Seven5 micro systems. My usual supplier does not stock the filters http://www.leefilters.com/index.php/camera/blackwhite I want. Where can I buy these B&W filters in NSW?

Personally, I'd say that it's a lot of money for not very much real gain.

I don't have the equipment to compare, but my guess is that these coloured filters are easily mimicked in PP using the psuedo color filter options available .. either in your software, or possibly in camera.

Have you tried this method yet?
(or are you looking for this set for use on B&W film?).

As for local suppliers that do stock them .. Vanbar seem to have(at least a limited amount of stock).
They have a three filter coloured set for the Seven5 system at least(red green and yellow) .. $300 odd or so.

Vanbar are a Melb based photography supplier.
