The LEE System has a couple of essential elements you'll need to use our filters, and a wide range of optional accessories that give total flexibility.

At the core of the LEE Filters system is the holder, which comes assembled with two filter slots but can easily be adapted to take up to four filters.

The holder is designed to be compatible with 100mm filters – our standard width. To fit the holder to the lens, an adaptor ring is required.

There are two types of LEE Filter adaptor ring:
one for general use, and one for wide-angle lenses.

Holder Versatility

The LEE Filters holder has been designed with almost every photographic eventuality and combination in mind.

Up to four filters of different types can be used in one holder. For instance you could combine Neutral Density and Warm-up Filters to respond to a specific lighting situation. Or if you shoot black and white you might select a red filter plus a Neutral Density Standard to darken blue skies and slow down the exposure.

Crucially, once fitted to the adaptor ring, the holder can be rotated to any angle. This permits the photographer to balance the exposure even when the brightest areas fall, say, within the top left hand 'triangle' of the scene.

Single filter configuration Three filter configuration

How the holder is constructed?

1. Fit the back cover plates to the back plate
2. Fit the filter holder guides to the back cover plates.
   Up to four guides, or slots, can be used with one holder.
3. Fit the front cover plates to the filter holder guides.

The adaptor ring screws onto the camera's lens and, in turn, the filter holder clips onto the adaptor ring.

The adaptor ring screws onto the lens with a fluid action, thanks to the sturdy construction and aluminium screw thread.

Wide-angle adaptor ring

The wide-angle adaptor ring is suitable for use with wide-angle lenses. It differs from the standard adaptor ring by sitting closer to the front element of the camera's lens. As a result, the likelihood of vignetting is dramatically reduced.

All LEE Filters lens hoods are self-supporting – a feature unique to us. This means, quite simply, they have no need for rails or guides in order to be adjusted or maintain their structure.

As a result, they are compact and light, so don't become a hindrance to the landscape photographer who prefers to travel light.

The Wide-angle Hood

The much larger bellows that are a characteristic of the Wide-angle Hood mean it can be used in conjunction with wide or very large lenses – reducing the chances of vignetting that would arise if a standard hood were to be used.

Slotted Hoods Standard/Wide-angle

Designed to fit onto the lens via the adaptor ring (as opposed to the filter holder) the slotted hoods come in single (one filter) or double (two filters) options, with vignette guides as standard. The 2mm filter slots are situated immediately behind the bellows, while the hood itself has the same structure and flexibility as all others in the range. Both standard and wide-angle hoods are available with a slotted option; they are particularly suitable for social photographers who may require a hood and holder combination.

Light, portable and perfect for street photography and general picture-taking on-the-go, compact system cameras feature the flexibility of manual controls and interchangeable lenses, but it hasn't always been possible to make the most of filters with them – until now.

Comprising a lightweight, precision engineered filter holder, the LEE Filters Seven5 Micro Filter System is compatible with LEE's 75x90mm filter range - which includes a Polariser, Neutral Density Filters and now the Big Stopper.

Simply select the correct adaptor ring for your lens thread, screw it onto the lens, snap on the filter holder and drop in the appropriate filter.

In just a few moments you're ready to shoot.

Seven5 Starter Kit

The Starter Kit contains one filter holder and one 0.6ND Hard Grad. The adaptor ring needs to be purchased separately.

Wide Range of Filters

The Seven5 System includes a full range of resin and some glass filters, which are sized at 75x90mm.

This includes Polariser, Neutral Density Filters and the Big Stopper.

The SW-150 Filter Holder has been designed specifically to fit the Nikon 14-24mm lens.

The SW-150 is available as a Starter Kit containing a Filter Holder, Adaptor Collar for the lens, a 0.6ND Hard Graduated filter 150mm x 170mm, and a Neoprene Lens cap that fits over the collar when the holder is not attached.

The full range of LEE resin graduated and standard filters are also available to order for the SW-150 but there is no Polariser or Big Stopper available for this system.

A separately sold custom fitting called the "System Adaptor" allows you to fit the SW-150 onto an existing LEE Adaptor Ring enabling it to be fitted to other lenses.
