THANK YOU!!! I've really been struggling with coughing up the money for some nice brass step up rings and the knurling on the ones you reccomended look amazing enough - im going for it. Thanks for the informative video!!!
Excellent video, thank you!!! I was just about to buy a super cheap ring, you saved me. And I really like your video quality and your voice, keep up the great work!!!
This has been very helpful. What are your thoughts on the NiSi Brass Pro step up rings? Are they worth buying or are the Breakthrough Photography step up rings better?
Thanks, glad to hear that! Haven't tried the NiSi's - they make great stuff, but I've been thrilled with the Breakthrough Photography step-up rings thus far.
What happens if you stack many many step up rings making the filter more far from the lens? Could it create some sort of vignetting based on the focal length?
Great video for this guy who just bought an X-S10. Quick question though. I have 67, 52, 49 and 46 sized filter requirements for my lenses. Please confirm I'd want to get three step up rings for the smaller lenses to step up to the 67mm filters I'll be purchasing? Thanks man!
Thanks, and congrats on the purchase! Yes, so you'd want to get step-up rings for each of the 46, 49 and 52mm lenses/sizes (to 67mm) so they'll fit your 67mm filters.
Just got into photography using moment lens products and filters. 62mm adapter for the lens, 62mm-72mm step upring-72mm cpl, step down ring 72-62mm step down, then a 62mm vnd filter. Will this work or will it creat vinetting?
You're probably fine there since the lens filter thread is 62mm, and (after the step-up to the CPL) the step-down to the VND ends at 62mm. Step down rings can cause vignetting if you're adapting a filter smaller than the lens filter thread; so it's usually better to stack filters at the same thread size if you can.
been very educational man! looking to buy my first step up ring, I currently have the 35mm Sony FE with the filter thread of 55mm and i have a 55mm ND filter on it. However as you said buy the biggest filter thread, can i stack my 55mm ND filter TOGETHER with a step up ring if i want to buy a pro mist of 87mm filter thread and be able to use both of them at the same time?
Thanks! That's a good question...most filters with have threads on them to allow adding additional filters/step up rings on top of them. Thus you should be able to technically stack the 55mm ND with the 87 Pro Mist (with a step up ring in between), though I'd be a bit cautious about vignetting, etc. in a setup like that, so you might have to test that out.

@@andrewsaraceni Thanks! :)
Thanks for sharing quick question if I use a step up ring how will my matte box fit ?
No problem! They also make adapter rings for matte boxes at various sizes to allow them to clamp on securely.
Ok brilliant so I guess in the case of a 77mm to 82mm step up ring that fits an 82mm the the matte box ring I guess should be 82mm?
@@creativcluster Yep, that's want you'd want in that case.
@@andrewsaraceni amazing thank you for sharing the knowledge and letting me know
Great video, simple and helpful (2022)
Thanks!
Thanks 🙏
No problem!

Generally it's not an issue, unless you're doing step down rings and have many of those (where they get smaller as you go).
