Product Information

Full details

This Urth 52mm Magnetic Essentials Filter Kit is for photographers seeking enhanced creative control and convenience in outdoor shooting. Its key benefit is the stackable magnetic system for quick filter changes and layered effects. A potential caveat is that users must ensure lens compatibility with the 52mm size. The kit includes UV, CPL, ND8, and ND1000 filters, all made with German SCHOTT glass for superior clarity and durability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does the 'Plus+' designation mean?

The 'Plus+' designation indicates an enhanced coating on the glass, offering improved clarity, color neutrality, and durability compared to standard filters.

Can I stack the filters together?

Yes, the magnetic design allows you to stack multiple filters on top of each other for combined effects.

How do I clean the filters?

Use a soft microfiber lens cloth for regular cleaning. For tougher spots, apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to the cloth before wiping the glass.

What is the purpose of each filter in the kit?

The UV filter protects your lens and enhances clarity. The CPL filter reduces reflections and boosts contrast. The ND8 and ND1000 filters reduce the amount of light entering the lens, allowing for slower shutter speeds or wider apertures.

Will this kit work with any camera lens?

This specific kit is for lenses with a 52mm filter thread. You would need a different size kit or a compatible adapter ring for lenses with other thread sizes.

What is the benefit of magnetic filters over screw-on filters?

Magnetic filters offer significantly faster attachment and removal, and easier stacking, which can be a major advantage when conditions change rapidly.

Does the kit come with a case?

The product description does not specify a case, but filters should be stored carefully to prevent damage. It is recommended to use a protective filter pouch or case.

Troubleshooting

Filter not attaching magnetically

Ensure the magnetic adapter ring is securely screwed onto the lens and that both the ring and the filter are clean and free from debris.

Image has noticeable color cast or reduced sharpness

Clean the lens and the filter glass with a microfiber cloth. Ensure the correct filter is being used for the desired effect. High-quality glass minimizes issues, but improper stacking or extreme use can sometimes introduce minor artifacts.

Vignetting (dark corners) in photos

This can occur when stacking multiple filters, especially on wider lenses. Try removing one filter or using a wider adapter ring if available and compatible.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effortlessly swap and combine filters with the magnetic system.
  • High-quality glass delivers clear, vibrant images.
  • Provides versatile creative control for various shooting scenarios.
  • Compact and convenient for photographers on the go.
  • Contributes to environmental conservation through tree planting.

Cons

  • Only compatible with lenses featuring a 52mm filter thread.
  • Magnetic system may not be as secure as traditional screw-on filters in extreme conditions.
  • Stacking multiple filters can potentially lead to slight light fall-off or vignetting on wider lenses.
  • Requires purchasing additional adapter rings for lenses with different filter thread sizes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Screw the included magnetic adapter ring onto your 52mm lens. The filters (UV, CPL, ND8, ND1000) then magnetically attach to this ring. Filters can be stacked magnetically.

Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for lenses with a 52mm filter thread. For lenses with different thread sizes, separate Urth magnetic adapter rings will be required.

Care: Clean the glass surfaces gently with a microfiber lens cleaning cloth. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution sparingly on the cloth, never directly on the glass. Store filters in their protective case when not in use to prevent scratches.
