Never Thread A Filter Again

We’re making the drag of threading filters a thing of the past. No more cross-threaded filters getting stuck and taking forever to swap. Helix MagLock is the future of filters and we’re developing our entire suite of glass to support it. Featuring our most advanced glass technology to date, resulting in razor-sharp optics with zero color shift in all lighting conditions.

The newest innovation of filter design is here. Ushering in a new era of camera filters and lens protection, Helix MagLock™ was built by creators, for creators.

5X Faster And 10X More Secure

Simply install the thread base and get shooting. Helix features a magnetic + quarter turn locking design ensuring your filter is safely locked in place while in-use.

Instant Filter Swaps Across Your Entire Lens Arsenal

Helix MagLock™ makes it possible to switch filters even faster than you can change lenses, seamlessly integrating into your workflow.

Bulletproof Filter & Lens Protection

Included with all Helix filters and available for the thread bases, Defender caps ensure your glass is always protected on the toughest shoots.

Brass Construction + Rubber Trim

Unlike other magnetic filters on the market, Helix MagLock is comprised of magnetic design that keeps your filters and defender caps securely in place until you are ready to move them.

FAQ

Can I adapt my existing threaded filters to use the MagLock mounting system?

No. The MagLock system uses 101mm filters without any threads. You’ll need the dedicated Helix filters to use the MagLock mounting system.

I don’t see thread sizes listed for the Helix filters. How do I know which one will fit my lens(es)?

All of the Helix filters are the same size (101mm), but they don’t use threading. Instead, the Helix Base Plates are what determine which camera lenses they’ll fit on.

Can I adapt the Helix filters to work with a matte box?

Yes! We offer a 114mm Matte Box Adapter (link) which will allow either the BaseCamp or the Nano 4x5 Matte Box to be installed on the front of any Helix filter.

Is there a hood available for the Helix filters?

There’s not a dedicated hood at this time, but we have seen some users adapt the Nano 4x5 Matte Box for this purpose.

Are the Helix McKinnon filters interchangeable with the Burkard and/or Shortstache Helix filters?

Yes! Any Helix filter will fit on any Helix Base Plate, so they’re all interchangeable.
