Q: The Summit 95mm Plate doesn’t seem to fit my 95mm thread lens. What’s going on?

Your lens might have coarse 95mm threads ( more info here ). The Summit plates use standard 95mm threading, so they won’t natively work with these kinds of lenses. You can make them compatible with the help of our 95mm Coarse Thread Adapter.

FAQ

Can I use the BaseCamp filters in the Summit system?

No, the BaseCamp is a larger system. The filters for it wouldn’t fit in the Summit.

What’s the widest focal length Summit is compatible with?

It varies slightly between lens models, but ~16-17mm tends to be the lower limit.

The Summit 95mm Plate doesn’t seem to fit my 95mm thread lens. What’s going on?

Your lens might have coarse 95mm threads (more info here). The Summit plates use standard 95mm threading, so they won’t natively work with these kinds of lenses. You can make them compatible with the help of our 95mm Coarse Thread Adapter.

Is the Summit compatible with the Helix MagLock filters?

No, the two systems are not cross-compatible.
