How to Choose the Right Ring

Every lens has a specific thread size, which you can find on the inside or outside of the lens (e.g., ⌀67mm). Use the chart above to select the appropriate Step-Up or Step-Down Ring for your setup.

Additional Information

If your specific adapter size isn’t listed above, additional sizes may be available through Amazon or other online retailers.

EXAMPLE: Let's say you have the popular Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens.  The filter thread specifications read 72mm.  Our Prism Lens FX Filters are not currently offer in a 72mm.  Luckily, we have a 72-77mm Step-up ring.  You simply screw in the step-up ring to the front of the lens, and you are set.  Now you can screw any of our PLFX 77mm FX Filters on top of your 72mm lens.  The step-up ring simply increased your lens diameter and allowed you to attach a filter of a larger specification.  Step-down rings work in the opposite way - they allow you to use a smaller filter on a larger lens thread (e.g., using a 67mm filter on a 77mm lens).
