Have you considered the Cokin system?

I've started building a "P" system. That way I can use the same filters with my 
75/55/49 mm Zuikos, as well as my 62mm E-20. And its only a $8 adaptor to use 
all those filters on any new sized lens I might get.

Cokin-brand resin filters are not the greatest, but you can get quality glass 
filters in this format. And with some mat board and an Xacto blade, you can 
mount Wratten gels, too.
