The FotodioX WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket is a two-piece assembly designed to be used in combination with a FotodioX WonderPana FreeArc Core Unit, a WonderPana 145 Core Unit, or a WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring. A WonderPana Core Unit or a WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring with the WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket attached can then allow for the convenient use of two 2.5 to 4.0mm-thick filters measuring 6.6" wide, or one 2.5 to 4.0mm-thick filter measuring 6.6" wide along with one FotodioX 145mm round filter behind it.

Use of this holder bracket is easily accomplished by separately attaching its two assembly pieces to opposite sides of a WonderPana Core Unit or a WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring using the six included brass short-screws. Pre-tapped threaded inserts along the edge of a WonderPana Core Unit or FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring accommodate those screws and ensure correct positioning of the two assembly pieces so that they are positioned parallel to each other and can hold a 6.6"-wide filter between them. The combined WonderPana Core Unit, or WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring, and WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket can then be attached to a compatible lens.

For WonderPana Core Units that consist of a rear lens collar and a front filter holder, pre-tapped threaded inserts along the edge of the front filter holder accommodate the six brass short-screws for correct positioning of the WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket's two assembly pieces. Once the holder bracket and a front filter holder are combined, and the separate collar has been slid over the rear of a compatible lens until it has achieved a secure fit, the front filter holder with the attached holder bracket can be screwed onto the front of the installed rear lens collar.

After being fitted onto a compatible lens, the bearing design of the WonderPana FreeArc Core Units and WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Rings allows a WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket to be rotated 360°. This permits the use of graduated neutral density and other filters that are enhanced by varied positioning. While a WonderPana 145 Core Unit does not include a 360° rotating mechanism, eight pre-tapped threaded inserts all around its edge allows the WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket to be installed in 45° increments so that rectangular filters placed within it can be angled to the best approximate position relative to the subject in front of the camera.

The FotodioX WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket provides two pairs of filter slots, a configuration that accommodates two compatible rectangular filters. For each rectangular filter that is placed within one of the holder bracket's slots, its position can be secured using the included brass long-screws. Pre-tapped threaded inserts along the outside of the holder bracket allow the long-screws to each apply pressure to a spring-loaded retainer within each filter slot. When a pair of the long-screws are used, the level of grip upon a rectangular filter can be varied, which can complement the use of graduated filters whose effect can be adjusted to better suit changing lighting conditions or creative demands by sliding them up or down within a filter slot.

Each FotodioX WonderPana Core Unit or WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring includes front filter threads, which allow a FotodioX 145mm round filter to be used along with this filter holder. If a 145mm round filter is used on the attached WonderPana Core Unit or WonderPana FreeArc Aluminum Step-Up Ring, the rectangular filter slot closest to the rear of the holder bracket becomes unavailable. The WonderPana 6.6" Holder Bracket features a lightweight, aluminum-alloy construction that has a corrosion-resistant, black anodized finish for durability. A rigid pouch is included for storage and transport.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. If using on a Nikon 16-35, will stacking 2 filters cause vignette ??

A: Yes, there is a chance of vignetting when stack 2 filters together on the Nikon 16-35mm f/4.

Q: 2. Will this fit the Nikon NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S Lens?

A: You can stack up to 2 filters on the Nikon 14-24mm Z lens and there will be no vignetting. If you stack 3 filters, vignetting would occur at 17mm or wider.

Q: 3. Is the glass for the CPL supposed to rattle inside the circular frame ? Because mine does..

A: While the filter may not be designed to rattle, circular polarizer filters are made of moving parts. It may be the retaining spring holding the glass in the filter may be loose, or another moving part may cause some rattle. That being said, if you are not happy with your filter or you feel your filter may be defective, do note you have 30 days from the date of purchase to return your filter for an exchange or refund.

Q: 4. Will these filters vignette with ultra wide lens. In my case Fuji GF 20-35mm f4.0

A: The Kase 82mm Wolverine Magnetic Professional Neutral Density Filter Kit II would offer thinner rings, so the likelihood that they will vignette with your Fujifilm GF 20-35mm f/4 is minimal.

Q: 5. Does KASE make a UV filter that can fit this kit without using threads?

A: No. UV are not available at the given moment.

Q: 6. How does this differ from the Kase 77mm Wolverine Magnetic Professional Neutral Density Filter Kit II (BH #KAMGKITPRC77 MFR #KW-MGKITPROC-77)?

A: The Kase Wolverine Stack Kit (KAMGKITSC77) comes with the rear-filter cap that enables a more streamlined system for storing and carrying your filters, with the caps at the top and bottom of the stack. The other kit you have linked only comes with a front lens cap.

Q: 7. Has anyone used this 82mm Kase KW-MGKITSC-82 system with the Canon RF 15-35mm Lens and if so have you experienced any lens vignetting?

A: These filters are fairly thin and you can stack quite a few of them. At the widest 15mm part of the zoom range you can stack 2 maybe 3 filters. But once you start zooming in a little you can stack more.

Q: 8. Will this work with NIKKOR 14-24mm F2.8G ED? How many filters can be stacked before vignetting.

A: Unfortunately, this kit is not compatible with Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED Lens. You will need a dedicated lens adaptor for your Nikon lens. There are a couple of options that allow circular filters to be mounted in front of the lens, but they are usually 150mm ring size or larger.

Q: 9. Can everything in the kit fit in the storage pouch?

A: Yes the whole kit fits into the pouch.

Q: 10. Has anyone used this with a Sony 24-105? If so do you get vignetting when stacking the ND and CPL filters? I read on Kase website https://kasefilters.com/faq that it will have vignetting on this lens regardless of filter size. Is that true?

A: Yes when using Kase 95mm Wolverine Magnetic Professional Neutral Density Filter Kit II you need to add an adapter ring to then add the magnetic filters and it becomes very thick if you are stacking multiple filters on top of another and then on top of the adapter ring, that cases vignetting when it is in wide angle position of 24mm.
