Manfrotto releases Xume lens filter system

Accessory manufacturer Manfrotto has launched its Xume filter suite system that features a magnetic adapter and filter holders designed to make fitting and removing filters quicker and easier.

Manfrotto has launched a new filter system that features a magnetic adapter and filter holders designed to make fitting and removing filters quicker and easier.

The Xume system uses a magnetic adapter ring that screws into the front of the lens, while the filter itself screws into a metal filter holder. The two parts then connect securely when they are held close together and can be separated by pulling them apart.

Manfrotto says its system streamlines the filtering process by removing the need for screwing a filter onto the front of the lens.

The filter holders and lens adapters are available now in eight sizes: 49mm, 52mm, 58mm, 62mm; 67mm, 72mm, 77mm and 82mm and are priced from $10.99 to $34.99 USD.
