I use step-up rings as a cost-cutting measure. Much less expensive than buying several filters for every different lens size in my collection. These rings are brass vs aluminum. They’re a little more expensive but work much better. Whether the lens threads are metal or plastic, they engage the threads immediately. Screw in smoothly. Highly recommended.

question

Is it more practical to buy a brass step up ring, or will an aluminum ring do the same thing at a lesser charge?
Asked by: Anonymous
My experience is that brass jams less than aluminum. Aluminum seems to gall more easily. Keep in mind that some bushings are made of brass (some use bronze) but never aluminum.

Will this work with a Sigma 18-35mm f 2.1 lens?
Asked by: Eckert
If you are referring to the Sigma 18-35mm 1.8 lens, yes the lens has a 72mm thread and so the step up ring will allow you to use 77mm filters.
