Well the price is IMO normal. You can get a Russian filter (M49) for abou 4 USD in Poland so 24 USD for the set seems an usual price. OTOH I've been told by the camera store clerk (who uses Pentax as well) that those cheap Russian filters are of poor quality. He said, that even my 25-80/4-5.6 would suffer after putting them on in terms of image quality. He suggested a Sunpack filter - the're about 13 USD a piece. I got red, yellow and green but that's all they've got in store. They will get more along with a flash delivery so it can some time. But 24 USD won't probably ruin your budget so they're worth a try. As they say, your mileage may vary - quality of Russian products is said to to differ from one to another day of production.
