I have been scratching my head as to which magnetic filter system to use for my 20-35mm E, 55V and soon to be released 35-100mm E lenses. They range from 72mm to 77mm to 86mm (I think) and that means in order to just use one set of filters I need to jump to 95mm to cover them all. Not many manufacturers make 72-95mm magnetic step ups and like one of the replies above I wish to have a UV filter on permanently for protection (i.e. not a magnetic UV filter that can come off).
So that means fitting a screw in UV filter to each lens first, then step ups with magnetic capabilities so that any other filters I add will stick magnetically.
Nisi doesn't make a 72-95mm magnetic step up.
Polarpro Base plates should fit each lens but the 86mm base plate is coarse thread and I have no idea if the new 35-100mm lens has a coarse or standard thread.
Maven makes some really useful step up rings with built in UV filters which would be perfect except they also don't make a 72-95mm version of these.
Kase doesn't make a 72-95mm magnetic step up either!
I'm at my wits end to make this work with one set of filters or may be I shouldn't and get a 82mm set for the 20-35mm and 55V and something else for the new lens?
Help!
