Key features of Haida 150 Series Filter Holder 1. High quality Aluminum material. Stronger and more stable than ABS plastic material. 2. With other brands of 150 series insert filter systems vignette will happen at approx. 16mm when 2 insert filters are used at one time, for example on Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 G ED lens. The Haida 150 system allows 2 pieces 150*150mm or 150*170mm insert filters at the same time, and there is no vignette (>14mm). This is a very important advantage. Most of the other brands of 150 series filter holder only use 1 piece filter to avoid vignette. 3. Three filters can be used at the same time with the addition of optional screws and side guides are available separately.
The complete holder system for the following lenses are available: 4. The Haida systems allows smooth rotation of the holder thru 360 degree s. The special design allows rotation of both the holder together with the insert filter. Fixing the holder with the filters at any degree is easily completed and with very little vibration. 5. Thanks to the design, mounting the Haida 150 series holder on a lens can be completed within 10 seconds.

These gaskets are included with the relevant filters A special feature of the Haida 150 series holder is the gaskets stick on the holder directly and not on each ND filter as with some other brands.
150-82 Adapter Ring For photographers who want to use the 150 series filter holder on not only the super wide angle lens but also on other lenses, Haida supply a perfect solution. It is the 150-82 Adapter ring. The diameter of this ring is 82mm, for example allows use of the 150 holder on Canon 16-35mm wide angle lens directly. The Canon 16-35mm lens s front filter thread diameter size is 82mm. Can the 150 filter holder fit smaller thread diameter size lenses? Yes, to solve the problem, a step-up ring is in need. For example, to use the 150 series filter holder on Canon 17-40mm lens, use a 77mm-82mm step-up ring and then the Haida 150-82 Adaptor ring.
150-82 Adapter Ring Mount the 77mm-82mm step-up ring on the Canon 17-40mm lens first, then, add on the 150-82 adapter ring, then, use the 150 series filter holder system.
