Daniel Acuña 25 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Hey guys, So I was just wondering if a could use a filter on top of an other one, the filters are circular so I already have a variable ND filter (77mm) and I am going to buy a Tiffen Black Pro-Mist filter on top of it (or under it), can I use an adapter or something, what are my solutions? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tupp 481 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Stacking filters is no problem. I generally put my polarizer's up front for convenience (as I change-out a polarizer most often) and to avoid interaction with the other filters. A variable ND essentially is two polarizers. Can't recommend any adapters nor matte boxes, but it sounds like you are using screw-in filters, at least for the variable ND (77mm). There is nothing optically disadvantageous with screw-in filters that except that filter changes take longer, and you usually have to unscrew and reattach the filters with each lens change. Also, if you stack too many screw-in filters, vignetting can start to appear. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamoui 0 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 No adapter needed as long as the Pro-Mist is 77mm. Pro-Mist will attach to the lens then variable ND will screw right in to the Pro-Mist. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
