Yes, I like it. Only the J is a bit too edgy, in my opinion. I would round it at the bottom...

Nice set.

Perhaps you could use the shape of the bottom of the C, G etc for the J ... that would echo the j better.

Cheers guys, ive rounded the bottom of the J, and i agree it looks better. The original J on the HOYA filters had a very edgy J, but i think this is a good adjustment

Very nice work. There are a few letters inconsistent with the the whole set: K - looks like a glyph from a Narrow version; Y - does not belong to this font, it could be from Bank Gothic, or almost any Sans Serif. The lc y actually look like a Small Cap. Some spacing issues: ll, ov, ra, etc.
