Product Information

Full details

The LEE Filters SW150 Mark II System Adaptor is a purpose-built solution for professional landscape and architectural photographers who use the Nikon 19mm PC-E tilt-shift lens. It enables the seamless integration of the SW150 filter system, allowing users to apply neutral density and graduated filters without sacrificing the lens's critical tilt-shift movements. While it provides unparalleled creative control for wide-angle perspective correction, users should note that the specialized installation requires careful alignment to maintain the system's structural integrity.

FAQs

Can I use this adapter with other Nikon tilt-shift lenses?

No, this adapter is specifically machined for the Nikon 19mm PC-E lens only.

Does this support the SW150 circular polarizer?

Yes, the system is designed to accommodate the SW150 polarizer alongside your rectangular filters.

Will this adapter fit the Mark I version of the SW150 holder?

The adapter is designed for the SW150 Mark II system; check your holder model for full compatibility.

Does this impact the ability to focus the lens?

The adapter is designed to clear the focus barrel, but always ensure the assembly does not physically obstruct the focus ring.

How do I prevent light leaks when using long exposures?

Ensure the filter holder is pushed firmly against the gasket and verify the adapter rings are seated tightly against the lens barrel.

Troubleshooting

The holder rotates during use.

Ensure the locking ring is tightened properly to the compressor ring assembly.

Vignetting appears at extreme shift angles.

Verify that the filter holder is perfectly level and that no extra-thick filters or additional frames are being used.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Retains full tilt and shift functionality of the Nikon 19mm PC-E
  • Provides secure, vibration-free mounting for heavy-duty filters
  • Essential for balancing exposures on ultra-wide perspective control glass
  • High-quality construction consistent with professional LEE Filters standards

Cons

  • Requires a more involved setup process compared to standard filter rings
  • Exclusive to the Nikon 19mm PC-E, limiting cross-lens compatibility
  • The SW150 system itself adds significant bulk to the camera setup

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the adapter, ensure your lens front element is clean and free of debris. Begin by sliding the compressor ring onto the lens barrel, followed by attaching the front ring and securing the assembly with the locking ring. Always double-check that the locking ring is tight enough to prevent rotation but not so tight that it damages the lens casing. When transporting, it is advisable to remove the filter holder portion of the system to reduce stress on the lens mount. Store in a dry, dust-free environment and wipe the components with a microfiber cloth after use to prevent sand or grit from affecting the mechanical threads.
