There is quite some time & labor involved in cutting these disks, so they are not cheap, US$15 each. 
Mounting these disks requires one factory filter holder to be modified, also for US$15 each. After this modification you can change the filter disks yourself, but it is *not* a field job, since there are tiny nuts and bolts involved. So for frequently us
ed colors I recommend one modification for each additional color. 
Since the factory included colors (UV, yellow/green and ND2x) are not very useful, this is isn't a big loss, but if you order filters apart from-, or after ordering the camera, you must send the filterholders to me first.
You can order extra filter holders, but those are not cheap either, US$10, since the factory doesn't want to sell empty(cheap) filter holders.
