This LEE Filters SW150 Mark II Adapter for Sigma 12-24mm f/4 DG HSM Artis designed to allow a separately available SW150 Mark II Filter Holder to connect to a Sigma 12-24mm f/4 DG HSM Art lens, which then permits the use of 150mm-wide, 2mm-thick filters without vignetting.

This lens adapter consists of three components: a front ring, a compression ring, and a locking ring. Placement of the lens adapter onto the lens is easily accomplished by sliding the front ring over the built-in hood with the front ring's integrated lugs positioned away from the lens body. The compression ring can then be slid over the rear of the lens until it meets the front ring. Finally, the locking ring is also slid over the rear of the lens until it can be screwed into the front ring. After that is accomplished, an SW150 Mark II Holder can be placed over the adapter from the front of the lens for use.

Due to the possible existence of slight variations in lens construction, the following information should be viewed as a general guide and not exacting specifications.

When using two filters with the Sigma 12-24mm f/4 DG HSM Art lens and the LEE Filters SW150 Mark II system, vignetting can be avoided by setting the lens to a focal length no less than 15mm.

When using one filter with the Sigma 12-24mm f/4 DG HSM Art lens and the LEE Filters SW150 Mark II system, vignetting can be avoided by setting the lens to a focal length no less than 13.5mm.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work on an Irix 15mm Blackstone?

A: The Irix 15mm Blackstone appears to have a 95mm filter thread, so yes I don't see why it would not work..

Q: 2. Can a person who is otherwise a die-hard Canon lens fan be satisfied with this Sigma lens? The comparable Canon 11-24mm seems just too expensive.

A: Buying a brand-new lens does not necessarily means you will get a good copy. You will need to test the lens out yourself. If you are lucky, then you will have a good copy. If not, you will need to calibrate it with the DSLR you are using to adjust the sharpness.Unfortunately, I did not get a good copy so I am waiting for USB Dock for Canon EF-Mount Lenses to arrive so that I can use it to calibrate my Sigma lens. I believe once it's calibrated correctly for your DSLR, the sharpness should be as good as the Canon 11-24mm.

Q: 3. Has anyone found a filter holder for this lens? The Haida holder for the Canon 12-24 is just barely too big.

A: Unfortunately, we do not have carry a filter adapter for the Sigma 12-24mm f/4 at this time. It might take some time for an option to hit the market.

Q: 4. Does this lens have a rear gel slot?

A: There is no gel slot.

Q: 5. The lens cap no longer fits once the adapter is fitted. Neither the adapter or filter holder comes with a lens cap and I cannot find one. What is used to protect the lens with the adapter in place?

A: I cannot speak directly to the Canon lens, as I use a Nikon 14-24. If they're similar, I can tell you that on the Nikon, Lee provided a neoprene sock for lack of a better word. It fits snugly, and actually does a better job of keeping dust off the lens glass. Also, the lens cap provided by Nikon does still fit, barely. However, I added a piece of gaffers tape to the rim of the lens cap, making it fit more snugly, and that holds the original lens cap nicely. So for me, I have two ways that work. Ultimately, I use both simultaneously. The neoprene sock certainly will not protect the lens glass from ANY kind of impact. I've seen some videos where people are frustrated that they have to choose one or the other. Nonsense! I simply places the hard lens cap inside the neoprene sock and place over my lens. Best of both worlds. In fact, I ordered an extra sock for my other 14-24, as added dust protection. They work great! Hopefully, your Canon will have similar success!

Q: 6. Will this work on a Sigma Cine 14mm Prime lens? Or for any sigma 95mm lens front

A: The Sigma 14mm prime has a 95mm diameter front but does not have 95mm threads, it will not work on the Sigma 14mm Cine. This adapter will work on a lens that has 95mm front filter threads.

Q: 7. Will this adapter work with the Sony G-series 28-135mm cinezoom lens that has 95mm diameter? Any specific reason why not? And can anyone comment on vignetting? Lastly, what other components are needed for the setup (other than the filters)? Thanks.

A: Yes, the lens adapter will work on the Sony FE PZ 28-135mm f/4 G OSS Lens B&H # SO281354 MFR # SELP28135G. The adapter is for lenses that have a 95mm filter thread.

Q: 8. I just received my 95mm adaptor ring - however I don't see threads on this to screw into the lens - what am I missing?

A: There is a thread but it is difficult to see. The adaptor is a cup shape. The inside of the cup faces towards the lens. The thread is on the small lip that extends upwards from the bottom of the inside of the cup.

Q: 9. Is it interchangeable with Ice 82mm Adapter for Haida 150 Series Filter Holder ?

A: No, the LEE Filters SW150 Mark II Lens Adapter for Lenses with 82mm Filter Threads is not compatible on the Haida 150 Series Filter Holder. This is the correct one for that holder, https://bhpho.to/3069dNr.

Q: 10. Anyone use this on an EOS R?
