FAQs

How do I determine my lens's filter thread size?

Look for a symbol like 'Ø' followed by a number (e.g., Ø72mm) or simply '72mm' printed on the front or side of your lens barrel. This indicates the diameter of the front filter thread.

Can I use this adapter with any 100mm filter system?

This adapter is specifically designed to connect to the Urth 100mm Square Filter Holder System. Compatibility with other brands may vary.

What is the warranty on this adapter ring?

The Urth 86-72mm Adapter Ring is backed by Urth's lifetime warranty.

Does the '86' in '86-72mm' refer to my lens size?

No, the '86' typically refers to the outer diameter of the filter holder system it's designed to attach to, while the '72mm' refers to the lens's front filter thread size.

What material is the adapter made from?

The adapter ring is constructed from durable magnalium.

Is this adapter suitable for wide-angle lenses?

While the adapter itself is a pass-through, using a 100mm filter system on very wide-angle lenses might cause vignetting. It's recommended to check compatibility with your specific lens and the Urth 100mm Square Filter Holder System.

What happens if I order the wrong size adapter?

Urth offers adapter rings in various sizes. If you ordered the wrong size, you would need to check Urth's return and exchange policy. It is essential to confirm your lens's thread size before purchasing.

How does Urth's tree-planting initiative work?

For every purchase of an Urth product, Urth partners with organizations to plant one tree in an area affected by deforestation. This is part of Urth's commitment to environmental sustainability.

Troubleshooting

Adapter does not screw onto the lens properly.

Ensure you have the correct adapter size (72mm thread) for your lens. Check for any debris or damage on the lens threads or the adapter threads. Try gently rotating the adapter while screwing it on.

Filter holder feels loose on the adapter.

Make sure the filter holder is fully seated and locked onto the adapter ring. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing a secure connection. Check the filter holder's locking mechanism for any issues.

Difficulty removing the adapter from the lens.

If the adapter is stuck, try gently wiggling it while unscrewing. Avoid excessive force. Using a rubber grip or jar opener might provide extra traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To set up the Urth 86-72mm Adapter Ring, first identify the front filter thread size of your lens. This is usually indicated by a symbol like 'Ø' followed by a number (e.g., Ø72mm) or simply '72mm' on the front or side of the lens barrel.

  1. Carefully screw the adapter ring onto the front of your 72mm threaded lens until it is snug. Do not overtighten.
  2. Attach the Urth 100mm Square Filter Holder System to the front of the adapter ring according to the holder's instructions.

Compatibility:

  • Lens Thread Size: This adapter is specifically designed for lenses with a 72mm front filter thread. It is crucial to verify your lens's thread size, as lens focal length is not the same as filter thread size.
  • Filter System: Compatible with the Urth 100mm Square Filter Holder System.
  • Other Urth Adapters: This is one in a range of adapter rings. For lenses with different thread sizes (e.g., 62mm, 39mm, 46mm, 52mm, 55mm, 67mm, 86mm), refer to the specific Urth adapter variant for those sizes.

Care:

  • Clean the adapter ring using a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
  • For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store the adapter in a protective case or pouch when not in use to prevent scratches and dust accumulation.
