I saw a YouTube vid evaluating Taco vs Polar Pro filters, and one thing the reviewer (Drone7) pointed out was that the Polar Pro filters had a tiny metal serrated strip concentric with the Inside of the filter housing, and the Tacos had instead a sort of felt-like fuzzy strip there. These two items served as a sort of gasket to help retain the filters in place on the camera. I'd already ordered the Polar Pros by then, but I think I much prefer the metal retaining strip (for longevity).
Also, the reviewer showed how the strip could be modded to make the fit easier by removing the strip with a needle, cutting about .5 cm off of one end and reinstalling it. Nifty.
Also: the reviewer (Drone7) also showed a slick and easy way to loosen the filters to remove them (no tools required), the Gimbal Lock™ in place, of course. Look up Drone7's channel and look for that vid. The title is something like: 'ND Filter Review Comparison of Taco...'
We also have an awesome support team here in the US, a Lifetime Warranty on the filters, and a pretty cool app to help you select the proper filter to use
