Finally I thought when I found these I can purchase filters at a specific size and use these rings to mean I only need one. With my kit including polarising, neutral density and other filters with lenses having filter sizes ranging from around 50mm to 72mm this kit at least means I can get that number of filters down to just 2 or 3.The quality feels good with the rings being well made. Their value I haven't seen better so far so I'm happy to recommend as if like me you have multiple sizes of lens then this will be indespensible if you want to cut your costs. Some filters can cost a lot of money so this should save some.

Why didn't I learn of these things 20 years ago? No, I'd buy a CP filter for every freaking size lens I needed. Then ND filters for just the ones I thought I'd use. I had to choose! The other day I dropped $210 for a sweet-ass high quality ND/CP filter. I had the same dread about having to buy at least one more at some point. But during the checkout process, Amazon recommends the adapters. Sunrise on Marblehead! The Universe is back in balance.

I bought these, instead of purchasing a different size lense, and I love them! They're really easy to use and they are definitely budget friendly, when it comes to photography tools. So far, they seem sturdy enough and stay put.

They work fine. Mine were easy to unscrew when I received them. Attaches and removes from my Nikon lenses easily, just need to be careful not to cross thread when attaching. Have not had any cross threading problems with them at all.

I bought a lense filter, so needed these to reduce the size of the filter for my lense size.They seem well made, they're metal and thread on and off well too.I'd recommend them.

I predominantly shoot with vintage glass and recently got a diopter that's really a lot of fun to play around with. This set makes it so that things fit. It's metal, the threading is nice (and, in fact, all of the adapters are shipped screwed in to each other so you know the threading's been tested at least once), and it tightens up appropriately/doesn't move until I want it to move.They're as thin as you can expect out of these, and while my vintage lenses don't have modern coatings, so the glare is a bit more noticeable, these adapters don't appear to let in any light/they're matte enough on the inside to not significantly degrade image quality.All in all, a great buy if you need them!

Bought a whole set of filters and realised that not all lenses are the same. This saved me buying a further set of filters in a different size. I only use one of the rings but it saved me a huge amount of money. Build quality is great. remember always turn opposite direction of way to tighten before you tighten to ensure thread alignment. Finger tight no need for muscle

With this adapter rings you can mix them and have diferent configurations, so you don't need to find the exact up/down ring , and spend more money. They have a good relation price-quallity. Some reviews mention that you can have them stocked to your filter or your lens., One simple trick NEVER tight them , not the filter nor the ring, so you can unscrew it the very easly, also I recomend to put a LITTLE mineral oil with a cotton swab all over the thread and you will not have any trouble with them

Rings look fine however upon receipt I noticed that one ring on each set was much tighter than the others. Took a little bit of force to release it (maybe slightly cross threaded) as it was not screwed in completely so it was not just a case of being done up tight. But after resolving this, all rings function fine.
