As John said buy the 77mm size. Then buy step up/down rings with it to fit for different lenses. If you get other lenses in the future you won't have to buy separate filters for it. Depending on how many lenses/ filters you end up getting, it can save you HUNDREDS.
^This. Unless you think you'll buy a lens with 82mm threads.. odd size but there are some out there.

Any idea about the quality of Cokin's holder and whether or not I would be able to use Lee's filters on a Cokin holder?
Lee's filter kit is sold out everywhere, even my local camera store...
However, Cokin's is not.
If you're getting cokin, The Z Pro line is the one to get, generally the build quality isn't as good as the Lee kit but it works just as well.
