Product Information

Full details

The Kase Revolution Magnetic Neutral Night Filter is for photographers struggling with light pollution in their night shots. Its key benefit is to effectively remove the yellow cast from artificial lights, saving significant editing time. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with 82mm lenses, requiring an adapter for others. This filter isolates and cuts light from low-CRI sources, ideal for long exposures near urban areas, ensuring more balanced exposures directly in-camera.

FAQs

What type of lights does this filter primarily combat?

This filter is designed to combat light from low-CRI (Color Rendering Index) sources, such as sodium-vapor streetlights, which emit a strong yellow-orange light.

Can I use this filter for daytime photography?

While it's a neutral filter, its primary purpose is night photography. Using it during the day may slightly alter color balance depending on ambient light conditions, which is generally not desired for daylight shooting.

How do I clean the magnetic ring?

Wipe the magnetic ring with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using liquids directly on the magnetic components.

What is the benefit of a magnetic filter system?

The magnetic system allows for very quick attachment and detachment, saving time during photography sessions, especially when changing lenses or settings.

Does this filter reduce overall light entering the lens?

As a neutral filter, it is designed to minimize light loss while correcting color. However, all filters will have some minimal impact on light transmission.

What is the warranty period for this filter?

Please refer to the product packaging or Kase's official website for specific warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Filter does not attach magnetically.

Ensure the lens or adapter ring is clean and free of debris. Verify that the filter is aligned correctly with the magnetic mount.

Image still shows a color cast.

Confirm the filter is the correct type for light pollution (Neutral Night). Check if the light source emits a spectrum not fully captured by this filter's design. Ensure proper lens and filter alignment.

Filter seems loose on the lens.

Ensure the adapter ring (if used) is securely fastened to the lens, and the magnetic filter is properly seated on the adapter ring.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effectively neutralizes light pollution for cleaner night sky images.
  • Quick magnetic attachment and removal speeds up workflow.
  • Durable construction with scratch and shock resistance.
  • Water and oil repellent coating simplifies cleaning in the field.
  • Reduces the need for extensive color correction in post-processing.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for 82mm lenses; other sizes require an adapter.
  • May require calibration for specific light sources if unusual casts persist.
  • Magnetic system could potentially attract dust or metallic debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The filter features a magnetic ring that easily attaches to the front of compatible lenses. For lenses with a different thread size, the included adapter can be attached first to create an 82mm magnetic mounting point.

Compatibility: This filter is natively designed for lenses with an 82mm filter thread. An adapter is included to enable use with lenses of other sizes, ensuring broad compatibility.

Care: Clean the optical glass using a microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, a lens cleaning solution can be applied sparingly to the cloth. The water and oil-repellent coating helps repel fingerprints and water spots, making maintenance straightforward.
