Urth Plus+ Magnetic Duet Kit Reviews
Very Good But
This review would be 5 stars but for one thing! This is the second set of magnetic filters I have purchased and both sets ( different filter sizes) exhibit the same issue and that is the UV filter does not stick to the magnetic ring as tightly as the other filters in the set. Whilst it has yet to fall off it is lose enough that I am conscious of the fact that if I am not very careful it will detach from the adapter ring. Strangely though when it is placed in the caps with the other filters there is reasonable effort required to remove it from the magnetic end caps. The other filters (both CPL) don’t exhibit the problem.
Clever but not perfect
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The idea is great and I have seen similar ideas advertised, but I trust Urth's quality so went with their product. In the end I have given up on the magnets and (as the filters have threads) have just screwed it on to the lens. I found that in use the magnets just were not strong enough and any knocks (say against your side while slung) would remove the filter. To mitigate against this you need to either use them in a quiet studio environment or with a lens hood. As always the optical quality of the filter is great, but it is just not as robust as hoped for.
