Q: 2. Hi, will I be able to use this along with a 82mm UV on an APSC camera with the Tamron 150-600mm lens?

A: I used it on a tamron 150-600 at 600, I never used it at 150mm , also make sure your 82mm filter or adapter is not a wide angle with recessed lip. I used a cheap version of the Lee filter system for the eclipse.

Q: 3. My email was wrong. Is this a 52mm female thread? to a 48mm male thread?

A: The Sensei 52-48mm Step-Down Ring has female 48mm threads on the front of the ring to allow you to connect a filter with 48mm male threads to the step-down ring. The back of the step-down ring has 52mm male filter threads which will screw into the 52mm female filter threads on the front of your lens.

Q: 4. The two answers to the third question say the opposite. Can I use this step-down adaptor to put an 82 VND filter on a 95 lens?

A: Yes, the Cavision 95mm to 82mm Step-Down Adapter Ring for Wide Angle Attachments will allow you to mount an 82mm filter on a lens with a 95mm filter thread.

Q: 5. I have a 300-600mm Tamron lens and have a 77mm Cokin Z-Pro Series Filter Holder Adapter Ring. Is this what I could use on my 95mm lens?

A: You cannot. This product is specifically for Wide Angle Attachments. Using a 77mm filter system on a lens with a 95mm thread will be very difficult, there may be vignetting caused by using such a smaller system on a larger one and we do not recommend it.

Q: 6. can i use a step down on a 77 to 67 and then another on top of it from 67 to 49

A: Yes you use more than one step down adapter ring. Note you will get a lot of vignette when using that setup of 77 lens filter thread to a 49mm filter.

Q: 7. Confirming, front inner threads are 62mm, rear threads are 67mm?

A: Yes, the front threads are 62 mm and rear thread are 67 mm on the Sensei 67-62mm Step-Down Ring. The Sensei 67-62mm Step-Down Ring is a step-down ring permitting the use of 62mm threaded filters on a 67mm threaded lens.

Q: 8. Are the threads female on both sides?

A: No. The 58mm side is male and screws into the lens. The 49mm side is female and receives the filter's male threads.

Q: 9. Does the difference in thread sizes cause noticeable vignetting on wider focal lengths?

A: Very possibly, yes, it depends on the focal length of the lens, how wide it is. It always best to get a larger filter if possible. Putting a smaller filter, especially on a wide angle lens, is a recipe towards vignetting.

Q: 10. Are there any side effects (vignetting, i think is the term used) when using the smaller 77mm filters on the larger 82mm lens?

A: Hi again Steve, just received your reply. I did not consider going to a full frame camera. Throwing that into the mix especially with a 24-70 lens I think pretty much would cause vignetting. Going from an 82mm down to a 77mm equals about one-quarter inch that would equal a one-eighth inch reduction on each side of the filter's rim. I would expect you'll get a lot of vignetting. One consideration is that the Sensei 82-77 step-down ring is not really expensive and if it caused too much vignetting you're not out a lot of money for the ring itself. I buy that brand, as they work very well and at a low cost. I would say to start saving for 82mm filters; I think you'll fine more vignetting than you'll want to deal with, especially going to a full frame camera and that lens.
