Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which filter do I need - ND, polariser or variable ND?

A: A polariser cuts glare and deepens colour. Fixed ND filters reduce light by a set amount for controlled shutter speeds. Variable NDs adjust across a range, making them the flexible choice for video. The filter type and strength are listed in the Specification tab.

Q: Will this filter fit my lens or drone?

A: Filters are made per thread size or per drone model. Check the size in the product title and Specification tab against your lens thread or drone model, or contact CEN to confirm.

Q: Which lenses does this base plate fit?

A: This base plate fits lenses with a 49mm filter thread. Mini MagLock base plates cover lens threads from 43mm to 55mm, and dedicated versions are made for the Leica Q3 and Fuji X100VI.

Q: Are any filters included?

A: No. The box contains the 49mm base plate and a front defender lens cap. Mini MagLock filters are sold separately.

Q: Can a Mini MagLock filter fall off?

A: The Mag-Lock fully locks the filter in place and it does not come off until you unlock it.
