Product Information
Full details
The LEE Filters LEE100 Tandem Adaptor is an essential tool for landscape photographers who require precise control over light management using multiple graduated filters. Designed specifically for the LEE100 Holder system, it enables users to mount two holders simultaneously, allowing for independent rotation of each. While this significantly expands your creative potential by letting you align ND grads at different angles, it does require a more deliberate setup process and adds physical depth to your lens rig.

FAQs
Can I use this with the LEE SW150 system?
No, the Tandem Adaptor is specifically engineered for the LEE100 system only.
Does this adaptor include the filters?
No, the adaptor is an accessory that connects two holders; filters must be purchased separately.
Will this cause my camera to tip over?
While lightweight, it adds length to the lens. Ensure your tripod is stable and properly balanced for the additional weight.
Can I use more than two holders?
No, the design is intended only for joining two holders together.
Is it weather-resistant?
The materials are durable, but as with all filter equipment, avoid submerging it in water or leaving it in extreme sand/dust conditions.
Troubleshooting
Visible vignetting at wide focal lengths
Zoom in slightly or move the filter system to a more forward position if the lens allows, or switch to a longer focal length.
Difficulty rotating the holders
Ensure that the filter slots are clear of sand or debris and check that the holders are fully clicked into their respective positions.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Allows independent rotation of two separate filter holders
- Lightweight and compact despite the dual-holder functionality
- Smooth integration with the LEE100 system
- Enables complex light control for landscape photography
- Ergonomic design ensures easy manipulation in the field
Cons
- Increases the physical profile of the filter system on your lens
- May cause vignetting on ultra-wide-angle lenses
- Requires careful balancing to prevent tipping or instability
- More complex setup than a standard single-holder configuration
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, slide the Tandem Adaptor into the front slot of your primary LEE100 holder. Once seated, attach your second LEE100 holder onto the front of the adaptor exactly as you would mount a holder onto a lens adaptor ring. Ensure that both holders click into place to prevent accidental detachment.
Regarding compatibility, this system is exclusively designed for the LEE100 Filter System. Use caution when mounting on ultra-wide lenses, as the added depth may result in the edges of the filter system appearing in your frame. After use, store the adaptor in a protective pouch to avoid scratches on the mounting surfaces, and periodically wipe it down with a microfibre cloth to remove dust or grit from the sliding mechanism.
