Product Information

Full details

The Kase Revolution Inlaid Adaptor Ring 77mm is for photographers seeking a streamlined and high-quality filter solution. Its key benefit is effortless magnetic filter attachment with reduced vignetting due to its closer-to-lens design. A potential caveat is its specific 77mm thread size, limiting compatibility to lenses with matching threads or screw-in filters. This adaptor allows magnetic filters to attach directly to your lens or an existing filter, eliminating the need for traditional bulky adapter rings and enhancing image quality.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the Inlaid Adaptor Ring?

The main advantage is its 'inlaid' design, which sits closer to the lens, significantly reducing the likelihood of vignetting (darkening at the edges) compared to traditional, thicker adapter rings.

Can I use this with any brand of magnetic filters?

This adaptor is designed to work with Kase magnetic filters. While some third-party magnetic filters might fit, optimal performance and secure attachment are guaranteed with Kase filters.

Does this adaptor replace my lens's filter threads?

No, it screws into your lens's existing 77mm filter threads or into a 77mm screw-in filter, providing a magnetic mounting point for additional filters.

Will this work with my wide-angle lens?

It is designed to minimize vignetting, making it more suitable for wide-angle lenses than standard adapters. However, vignetting can still occur on extremely wide focal lengths. Test on your specific lens.

How do I clean the adaptor ring?

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For tougher smudges, a slightly damp microfiber cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid solvents.

Can I stack multiple magnetic filters with this adaptor?

Yes, you can stack Kase magnetic filters on top of each other using the magnetic system attached to the Revolution Inlaid Adaptor Ring.

What is the thread size?

This specific model is for 77mm filter threads.

Troubleshooting

Adaptor does not screw on smoothly

Ensure you are using a lens with a 77mm thread or a 77mm filter. Check for any debris in the lens threads or adaptor threads. Start screwing gently and ensure it's not cross-threaded.

Magnetic filter does not attach securely

Verify that both the adaptor and the filter are clean and free of obstructions. Ensure you are using a genuine Kase magnetic filter designed for this system. Make sure the adaptor is screwed on straight and securely.

Vignetting is still present

While this adaptor minimizes vignetting, it may still occur on extremely wide-angle lenses. Try reducing the focal length or ensure the adaptor and filter are perfectly aligned and seated.

Lens cap doesn't fit

Ensure you are using a standard snap-on lens cap. Some thicker magnetic filters may have their own integrated cap or require a specific size cap. Check the compatibility of your lens cap with the attached filter.

Pros and Cons

  • Allows for rapid filter changes with magnetic system.
  • Sleek, low-profile design.
  • Offers flexibility by attaching to either the lens or an existing filter.

Cons

  • Specific to 77mm lens thread size; requires lens or filter compatibility.
  • Requires compatible Kase magnetic filters to function.
  • May not be suitable for very wide-angle lenses where even slight thickness can cause issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your lens has a 77mm front filter thread, or you are using a 77mm screw-in filter.
  2. Carefully screw the Kase Revolution Inlaid Adaptor Ring 77mm onto the lens threads or the existing filter.
  3. Ensure the adaptor is securely but not overly tightened.
  4. Attach your compatible Kase magnetic filter by aligning it with the adaptor's magnetic rim and allowing it to snap into place.
  5. You can still attach standard snap-on lens caps to the front of the magnetic filter or the adaptor, depending on the filter's design.

  • Magnetic Filters: Designed specifically for use with Kase magnetic filters.

Care:

  • Clean the adaptor ring with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust and smudges.
  • For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp microfiber cloth, ensuring no moisture enters the threads. Dry immediately.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches.
