“We designed the MagFlip hood so you no longer had to choose between using a filter and rigging out your Fuji X100 with an aesthetic hood. The brass base threads directly onto the camera, and we've added built-in threads for 49mm filters—no filter adapter needed. Once it's set, the hood flips down.”

FAQ

What strength are the Black Mist and Gold Mist Filters?

They are 1/4 Strength Filters, which is our most popular mist strength.

How does the Filter Canister attach?

The front threads into the front of the filter, and the rear threads into the back of the filter.

Does the Polarizer give my image a filmic look?

No, the Polarizer is our most advanced and sharp polarizer we offer. Its a throwback to the most popular film filter for black and white images, or general glare reduction.

Does it work with hoods?

The Black mist and gold mist will work with most hoods. The Polarizer has extra grip around the base that is not compatible with most hoods. All three filters are compatible with MagFlip Hoods.
