How to Mount 72mm Filters on Your ShiftCam V.Series LensUpdated 4 months ago

The ShiftCam V.Series lenses are designed with a versatile filter mounting system that gives you the flexibility to use both ShiftCam magnetic filters and standard 72mm threaded filters.


1. Using the Magnetic Filter System  - Your V.Series lens comes with a built-in magnetic filter mount, allowing you to quickly and securely attach compatible magnetic filters.

To use the magnetic filter system:
A. Remove the lens caps from your V.Series lens.
B. Align the magnetic filter with the front of the lens.
C. Gently place the filter onto the lens until it snaps into place magnetically.

This system makes switching filters fast and convenient while shooting.

2. Using Standard 72mm Filters - If you prefer using your own 72mm filters, you can easily remove the magnetic filter adapter.

To mount a 72mm threaded filter:
A. Locate the magnetic filter mount attached to the front of the lens.
B. Carefully remove the magnetic adapter ring.
C. Store the adapter safely to avoid misplacing it.
D. Attach your 72mm threaded filter directly onto the lens by rotating it clockwise until secure.

Your V.Series lens is now ready to use with standard 72mm filters, including ND, CPL, diffusion, and other photography filters.

Tips for Best Results

  • Avoid overtightening threaded filters to prevent difficulty when removing them.
  • Keep the magnetic adapter ring in a safe place when not in use.
  • Always clean filters and lenses with a microfiber cloth before shooting for the best image quality.
