1. Attach the Filter Holder to your Lens:

   The magnetic filter holder is designed to clamp onto lenses with filter thread sizes ranging from 67mm to 82mm. Securely attach the holder to the front of your camera lens. Ensure it is firmly seated to prevent accidental detachment.

2. Insert Base Filters (Polarizer or Polarizer/Mist Combo):

   Align the arrows on the base filter (Circular Polarizer or Polarizer/Mist Combo) with the corresponding marks on the filter holder. The magnetic system will snap the filter into place. These filters serve as the foundation for the variable ND filters.

3. Add Variable ND Filters:

   Once a base filter is in place, you can magnetically attach either the 2-5 Stop Variable ND Filter or the 6-9 Stop Variable ND Filter. These filters also snap securely into position. The variable ND filters allow you to control the amount of light entering your lens.

The Benro VF1 Filter Kit is designed for quick and efficient use. Here’s how to operate the different filters:

• Circular Polarizer Filter:

  This filter reduces glare, haze, and reflections from non-metallic surfaces like water or glass. To adjust the polarization effect, gently rotate the outer ring of the polarizer filter while looking through your camera's viewхайгч эсвэл амьд view. The effect will become visible as you rotate it.

• Polarizer/Mist Combo Filter:

  This filter combines the glare reduction of a polarizer with a mist effect, which creates blooming highlights and a softer aesthetic. Rotate the outer ring to adjust the polarization, similar to the standard polarizer. The mist effect is inherent to the filter and does not require adjustment.
• Variable ND Filters (2-5 Stop and 6-9 Stop):

  Variable ND filters allow you to control exposure by reducing the amount of light entering the lens without affecting color. This is useful for achieving slower shutter speeds in bright conditions or wider apertures for shallow depth of field. To adjust the light reduction, rotate the outer ring of the variable ND filter. The markings on the filter indicate the stop range (e.g., 2-5 stops or 6-9 stops). Avoid rotating beyond the marked limits to prevent cross-polarization effects (X-pattern).

• Цэвэрлэх шүүлтүүр:

  Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth specifically designed for optical surfaces to clean your filters. For stubborn smudges or fingerprints, use a small amount of lens cleaning solution applied to the cloth, not directly to the filter. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

• Хадгалах:

  Always store filters in the provided protective carrying case when not in use. This protects them from dust, scratches, and impacts. Keep the case in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

• Харьцуулах:

  Handle filters by their edges to avoid leaving fingerprints on the glass surface. Avoid dropping or subjecting filters to excessive force, as this can damage the glass or the magnetic frame.

Алдааг олж засварлах

• Filters not attaching securely:

  Ensure the filter holder is correctly and firmly attached to your lens. Check for any debris on the magnetic surfaces of both the holder and the filters that might prevent a secure connection. Align the arrows on the filters with the marks on the holder.

• "X" pattern or uneven density with Variable ND:

  This can occur if the variable ND filter is rotated beyond its intended range. Rotate the filter back within the marked minimum and maximum stop limits to eliminate the "X" pattern. This is a common characteristic of variable ND filters when pushed to their extremes.
• Difficulty rotating Variable ND or Polarizer:

  Ensure the filter is clean and free of debris. If the rotation is stiff, it might be due to dust or grit. Clean the edges of the filter carefully. Do not force rotation, as this could damage the mechanism.
