FAQs
Can I use these filters on lenses with different thread sizes?
Yes, you can use the holder on different lenses by purchasing the correct size adapter ring for each lens.
Is the polariser included in this kit compatible with the holder?
Yes, the LEE85 Polariser is specifically designed to work with the LEE85 Filter Holder included in this kit.
How do I clean the filters?
Use a soft microfiber cloth and lens cleaning fluid. Avoid abrasive materials that may damage the filter coatings.
Does the kit come with everything needed to start shooting?
The kit includes the holder and filters, but you will need to purchase an adapter ring that matches the specific filter thread diameter of your lens.
Can I stack all the filters at once?
The LEE85 holder is designed to accommodate multiple filters; however, stacking too many may cause vignetting depending on your focal length.
Troubleshooting
Visible vignetting on wide-angle lenses
Ensure the filter holder is properly centered and consider removing one filter slot or using a wider adapter ring if available.
Filter is hard to slide into the holder
Check the filter slots for debris or dust and ensure the grip tabs are aligned correctly with the guide rails.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the system, screw the appropriate adapter ring onto your lens thread, then click the LEE85 Filter Holder onto the ring. Filters are inserted into the slots on the holder face. Because this is an optical system, keep the filter surfaces clean using a professional microfiber cloth and lens cleaning solution. Store filters in the provided protective pouch when not in use to avoid scratches. Always check that the holder is securely locked onto the adapter ring before moving your tripod between locations.
