Common FAQ's
IS THE SHORTSTACHE EVERYDAY 1/4 FILTER ALSO A POLARIZER?
Yes. Both Shortstache filter models are polarizers, the only difference between them is the diffusion strength.
CAN I STACK A SHORTSTACHE EVERYDAY FILTER WITH A VND?
This isn’t recommended, since separate polarizers and VNDs will interfere with each other if stacked. Our Chroma VND/PL Black Mist filters are what you’d want instead, those are designed to combine the effects of the Shortstache and VND filters without any interference.
ARE THE HELIX MAGLOCK FILTERS ALL THE SAME SIZE? IF SO, WHAT SIZE?
Yes. All of the Helix MagLock filters are 101mm in diameter, but the filters themselves don’t have threading. You’ll need the Helix Base Plates to use them.
CAN I USE A MATTE BOX WITH MY HELIX MAGLOCK FILTERS?
Yes. The 114mm Matte Box Adapter we offer will let you install either the BaseCamp or the Nano 4x5 Matte Box.
DOES THE LEICA Q3 HOOD STILL WORK WITH THE 49MM SHORTSTACHE FILTERS INSTALLED?
Yes, it does.
