FAQs

What lens filter thread sizes does the Small OMNI system support?

The Small OMNI system supports lens filter thread sizes ranging from 49mm to 58mm, using the included adapter rings.

Can I use the OMNI system with any lens?

It is designed to work with most prime and zoom lenses, both manual and autofocus, provided they have filter threads within the 49-58mm range. It also has specific compatibility with Lensbaby Velvet 56, Velvet 85, and Burnside 35 lenses.

How do the Effect Wands attach?

The Effect Wands attach magnetically to the filter ring that screws onto your lens.

Are there different types of Effect Wands available?

Yes, the system comes with three unique effect wands, and expansion packs with additional wands are available to explore new creative possibilities.

Can I use this system with a lens that has a very large front element?

As long as the lens has a filter thread within the 49-58mm range, the OMNI system can be attached. However, the size of the front element might affect how the effect is rendered.

Is the OMNI system heavy?

The system is designed to be lightweight, so it does not significantly add to the weight of your lens.

Troubleshooting

Effect wand does not attach securely.

Ensure the magnetic surfaces on both the ring and the wand are clean and free of debris. Check that you are using the correct side of the wand for attachment.

Filter ring does not fit the lens.

Verify your lens's filter thread size. Use the appropriate step-up or step-down adapter ring included with the OMNI system. If the size is outside the 49-58mm range, this system will not be compatible.

Desired effect is not appearing.

Adjust the position and angle of the Effect Wand on the filter ring. Experiment with different focal lengths and apertures on your lens, as these can influence the effect.

Image has unwanted light leaks or flares.

Reposition the Effect Wand or ensure it is correctly seated on the magnetic ring. Sometimes, the ambient light conditions can interact unexpectedly with the effect.
