SHIFT Diopter 77mm (SS-SHFT-77)
A precision-built close-focus filter system co-developed with Shortstache, available in both threaded and Helix MagLock versions.
- +2 / +4 / +8 diopters: three magnification levels to suit every shot.
- Optical-grade multi-coated glass: maintains sharpness and colour accuracy.
- Threaded compatibility: fits lenses from 49–95 mm.
- Shortstache matte-green case: travel-ready with premium protection.

Focus Where It Matters
Co-engineered with Shortstache, SHIFT extends what your existing lenses can do. Each diopter is designed to bring you closer to the subject without sacrificing optical quality or requiring a lens change.
2-1.5X / 4-2X / 8-3X
The Morning Shift campaign, shot in New York with Shortstache, demonstrates how each diopter transforms a simple subject — a daily coffee ritual — into a cinematic sequence. It illustrates what SHIFT was designed for: everyday scenes with precision close-focus control.
Push Closer, Hold Clarity
Every diopter edge and coating in the SHIFT set is refined to keep focus transitions smooth and light transmission clean at 94%. Whether shooting handheld or locked off, each frame stays sharp and intentional.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.

A: Quality glass filters are designed to be optically neutral. Cheap filters can introduce colour casts and softness, which is why we stock cinema-grade brands with strong colour accuracy.
Q: Which diopter strengths are in the SHIFT set?
A: The set includes +2, +4 and +8 diopters, supplied in a Shortstache matte-green case.
Q: What size is this SHIFT Diopter set?
A: This is the 77mm threaded version (SS-SHFT-77), for lenses with a filter thread of 77mm. The other SHIFT thread sizes are listed separately.
Q: What does a close-focus diopter do?
A: Each diopter reduces your lens’s minimum focus distance, so you can get closer to the subject for macro-style detail without changing lenses.
