Product Information

Full details

The Urth Magnetic ND Selects Filter Kit - 82mm is designed for photographers seeking enhanced creative control in varied lighting conditions, especially for landscape photography. Its primary benefit is the ability to achieve long shutter speeds and manipulate depth of field with ease, thanks to its magnetic, stackable ND filters. A key consideration is that the magnetic adapter ring must be attached to your lens first for the filters to attach.

FAQs

Can I stack these magnetic filters with other non-magnetic screw-on filters?

No, the magnetic filters are designed to work with the Urth magnetic adapter ring and other Urth magnetic filters. They cannot be directly attached to standard screw-on filters.

How do I know which ND stop to use?

ND8 (3-stop) is good for general use in bright light or slight motion blur. ND64 (6-stop) is ideal for longer exposures like smoothing water. ND1000 (10-stop) is for very long exposures, even in daylight, to achieve extreme motion blur or daytime long exposures.

What does 'Plus+' signify on the filters?

The 'Plus+' designation indicates Urth's advanced multi-layer nano-coating, which enhances light transmission, color accuracy, and scratch resistance.

Is the magnetic adapter ring included?

Yes, the magnetic adapter ring required for the filters to attach is included with the kit.

Can these filters be used on lenses with a different filter thread size?

This specific kit is for 82mm lenses. Urth offers magnetic ND filter kits in various sizes.

How durable is the magnetic connection?

The magnetic connection is strong for quick and secure attachment. However, like any camera gear, it should be handled with care to prevent accidental detachment due to strong impacts.

What is the warranty on this filter kit?

Urth Magnetic Lens Filters are backed for life, offering a lifetime quality guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Filter not attaching securely

Ensure both the lens adapter ring and the filter's magnetic rim are clean and free of dust or debris. Verify that the adapter ring is properly screwed onto the lens.

Visible vignetting (dark corners) in photos

While the slim rim is designed to prevent this, very wide-angle lenses might still show slight vignetting when stacked. Try removing one filter or check if the adapter ring itself is causing the issue. Ensure filters are clean and not damaged.

Image appears dull or color casted

Ensure you are using the correct ND filter for the desired effect and exposure. Clean the lens and filter glass. The high-quality SCHOTT glass should minimize color casts.

Filter accidentally detached

Ensure the magnetic connection is firm before shooting. Avoid jarring impacts to the camera when filters are attached. Always handle with care, especially when shooting near water or edges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy filter changes with the magnetic system.
  • Versatile range of ND stops (3, 6, 10) for diverse shooting situations.
  • High-quality German SCHOTT glass for excellent optical performance.
  • Slim profile reduces the risk of vignetting, especially with wider lenses.
  • Durable magnalium construction ensures longevity.
  • Backed by a lifetime warranty.

Cons

  • Requires the magnetic adapter ring to be attached to the lens.
  • Magnetic system might be susceptible to accidental detachment if bumped hard.
  • Not suitable for photographers who prefer traditional screw-on filters.
  • 10-stop filter requires careful use to avoid overexposure in very dark conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Screw the included magnetic adapter ring onto your 82mm lens.
  2. Align the desired ND filter with the adapter ring and it will magnetically snap into place.
  3. To stack filters, attach the next filter directly onto the one already mounted.

Compatibility:

  • This kit is specifically designed for lenses with an 82mm filter thread. The magnetic adapter ring is also 82mm.
  • The magnetic system allows for easy stacking of filters.

Care:

  • Clean the glass surfaces gently with a microfiber lens 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 and dust accumulation.
  • Avoid extreme temperatures and moisture.
  • Ensure the magnetic surfaces of the filters and adapter ring are clean before attaching to maintain a secure connection.
