Finally. A simple straightforward video without an annoying intro, sponsors, asking to like and subscribe, etc.
Super helpful! When the manufacturer failed to provide anything on the install that was readily found, I found you! Thanks,
Glad we could help, actually we are the manufacturer. The URL to our Installation video is on the packaging label, sorry if you missed it.
This is way easier than I thought! Great video and I’m not scared anymore lol! I just settled on “downgrading” my full frame (way more camera than I need) but didn’t want to give up filters! Thank you!
Excellent. Yes sometimes installing something new on your camera can be intimidating, glad it was easier than you thought .
Thanks for posting this susan, I just installed the Lensmate on my camera just a few min ago. Your directions on the video were clear and easily understood.
Thank you so much Susan Doel this is very helpful.
After five years, how has the system held up?
Thank you
Thanks for a clear video.
I am looking for an adapter for the Padcaster Parrot teleprompter for my Sony ZV-1. Would this work or would the teleprompter would be too heavy?
I cant recommend this, after a month the glue just dried out and the filter holder came off. Very disappointing.
Hi Nolaan, email us at info@lensmateonline.com and we will send you a new Part 1 - say oked by Susan. Then understand that it is not glue but rather a 3M adhesive, and if used as intended will last for many years on your camera. The key is to remove Part 2 from the camera to screw or unscrew your filter then bayonet to Part 1. The 3M adhesive is nice and secure but does not do well with twisting or rubbing. We have sold this system for over 15 years. In fact Sony out of Japan placed a large order as a promo to include with their Sony RX100 series.
That's smart 👍
You are a great facilitator, Susan!! Just a little question: I own the RX 100 II. Would this work on it?
Keep on sharing!!
Cheers!
Hi Manny, you are too kind. This Kit will not fit your RX100 II - but our Kit for the RX100 VA will fit as it is designed for the VA, VI, V, III, II and I. Here is the link to Amazon www.amazon.com/Lensmate-Quick-Change-Filter-Adapter-RX100/dp/B00OWGGYZS/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=RX100+II+filter+adapter&qid=1576095348&sr=8-2#customerReviews
All the best to you and yours.
Does it fit the Lcs-Rxg case with part 1?
Does the adhesive stick well enough that the filters don't fall off or anything? Is the key securing the filter to that adapter first before screwing onto the camera? Thanks.
This custom system will last for years on your camera if you follow our important tips which are on the same page as the install video on our website. People who have trouble with the adhesive did not do one of the steps below.
1) when installing our Part 1 take the time once the Part 1 is on the camera, and the zoom lens retracted and the camera on its back on a table - press down firmly with both thumbs at 3 oclock and 9 oclock, then move to 2 oclock etc. you want to make sure that the entire surface of Part 1 is strongly attached to the camera.
2) Then ALWAYS screw and unscrew your 52mm filter from Part 2 off the camera - then bayonet to Part 1. The 3M adhesive is nice and secure with a filter but does not do well with twisting or shear forces.
3) always remove Part 2 first before putting the camera into a camera bag, again to protect the adhesive from rubbing.
Does it work in zoom mode (200mm) or only in wide mode ? I don’t see in the video what happens when zooming.
There is no vignetting throughout the entire focal range. That is because the filter is attached to the end of the camera zoom lens, so the camera is unaware of it - the filter moves in and out with the zoom lens from wide to tele.
Hi. Does this fit the Sony HX99? I am currently using with the Magnafilter thread adapter but this one looks more stable
The Sony HX99 has a much smaller built in lens, so non of our quick change filter adapters would be compatible. Sorry about that.
Would this one work with the new Sony ZV-1 or do you have one specifically for the ZV-1?
No this will not work. The Sony ZV1 is actually more like the Sony RX100V - and our Kit for the RX100V Part 1 & 2 will work we are just waiting to have the ZV1 camera in hand to see if the install tool will fit. You can go to our website and sign up on our interested parties list and we will email you once we can confirm.

@@Lunaray100 Thanks, signed up!
Zv1 has nd filter built in
waht grip did you use? on the rx100 VII
It is a custom Grip by a company out of Japan called Richard Franeic's Grip for Sony RX100Vii - you can find it on Amazon.
nice! does it stick out much further with it on? how does it perform?
Part 2, the actually filter holder bayonets to Part 1- the 2 parts together add 1/8 of an inch. As long as you always screw and unscrew your 52mm filter from Part 2 off the camera and then bayonet to Part 1 the system will last on the camera for many years. We have sold this custom system for over 8 years with 300,000+ Kits sold. In fact Sony out of Japan placed a large order last year for our RX100 V Quick Change Filter Adapter Kit so they could include our Kit in a promo for the RX100 V cameras.
awesome, thanks for the info.
Does it still fit in the Sony leather case when this is on?
@@MingTyhMaa Since the Sony case is a fitted case there is not room to close the top with the quick change filter adapter attached, but you can remove Part 2 and store it elsewhere leaving the compact receiver on the camera - then the top will close.
Doesn't this camera have a built in ND filter?
Unlike the Sony RX100VA, the RX100 VI & RX100 VII does not have a built in ND filter.
The last RX100 series camera with the built ND was the mk5 I believe. They traded a longer lens for that feature. My mk4 has it and it's super helpful so I might look into this product for my MK7.
how about the leather case LCJ RXK? Will it still fit inside?
You may use the Sony fitted case - thought to close the case you will need to remove Part 2 and whatever filter you might have attached, leaving Part 1 on the camera.
@@Lunaray100 thanks. And you ship to denmark?

What's on the shutter release button? :)
Oh we bought a raised 7mm sticky plastic dot and added it to the shutter release so we could feel the button better.

That dent on EVF pains my heart
I know LOL. It was taken on an off road bike trip and suffered some damage - but got some great IR shots, which we will post on our website next week.
