Looking for our astrophotography drop-in filters? Check out are dedicated astrophotography page here.
Our filters are thickness matched to minimize focus shift, EXCEPT for the IRChrome and UV Bandpass. These two filters need to be thick by design, which can reduce macro focus range, and can reduce corner sharpness on wide-angle lenses. In our tests, the effects were fairly minor, however.
**You may see a color cast or X effect when using our VND Filters at their highest stop values (8–10 stop or 14–16 stop) with certain ultrawide angle lenses. Our VND filters are recommended for general, visible light, photography. For infrared-ND photography we recommend using our fixed IRND filters available here. Due to the physical limitations of the polarizing filters used in VNDs; these filters may cause issues when used for infrared photography above 665nm! Combining VND’s with infrared above 665nm may cause color shifting and ineffective light stoppage.
All of our Drop-In filters are compatible with Canon’s Drop-In adapter system as well as our own.
Please note that some type of drop-in filter with glass MUST be inserted into the Kolari EF-EOS R Drop-In Filter Mount Adapter while in use. The filter prevents light leaks and helps with focusing.
Swirl Bokeh Filter Disclaimer:
Recommended for use on portrait lenses. (Focal ranges under 35mm will require extremely close focus distance.)
Focus distance recommendation:
1X – works best @ 1 to 4 feet distance from your subject.
2X – works best @ 1 to 2 feet distance from your subject.
The effect can vary depending on the lens used and also the distance between your camera and your subject.
6-15 Stop Dark VND Disclaimer:
Our 6-15 Stop Dark Variable Neutral Density (VND) Filter is specifically designed for controlling light exposure in photography and is not suitable for solar photography, including photographing the sun directly or during solar eclipse events. Using this filter for solar photography can cause damage to the filter itself and potentially lead to it burning. Moreover, such misuse could result in damage to your photography equipment and pose a risk of injury. We strongly advise against using this filter for capturing images of the sun or during any solar phenomena to ensure the safety of both your gear and yourself.
Astrophotography Warning: Astrophotography thoroughly tests the optics of any camera system and lens. Ultrawide lenses are particularly challenging because of the high rear incidence angles involved where any additional glass has the possibility of inducing a field curvature which can cause corner sharpness on a lens-by-lens basis; this effect is most noticeable at wide apertures. While this should always be a consideration with any ultra wide lens, we typically only see issues with astrophotography where the target subject is a series of geometrically perfect points of light at infinity, shot at wide apertures.

Paul Guillet –
I purchased the Kolari EF-EOS R Drop-In Filter Mount Adapter For Canon EOS R, with the Clear and CPL drop-in filters (see photos) for my Canon 6R. Having used them now in the field, I am extremely pleased with all three components. They are all of high quality, durable and well-finished. Most importantly, they fit and function with my R6 as if they were actual Canon accessories. After waiting months for a competing 3rd-party maker of a similar filter adapter system to no avail, Kolari was able to ship these without delay after my purchase was placed.
