Customer Reviews

Wish I'd known about step-up adapters earlier ... Having invested a reasonable amount in the Lee filter system for my Nikon lenses, it seemed a waste of money to have to buy individual polarizing lenses for the times I just wanted a polarizer (and didn't want the cumbersome filter holder just to use the excellent Lee 105mm polarizer. Then I heard about adaptors that would let me use his filter with any other lens - for just a few dollars each lens. Unlike most of the options out there, the Breakthrough Photography adaptors are brass, and are machined to exacting standards. Absolutely no problems with crossed-threads. They fit perfectly. Maybe a tad heavier than aluminium, but they have the right amount of heft to solidly hold my large filter. 5Buy with confidence. During the past thirty years I have used step up rings for nearly every camera rig imaginable - including 16 and 35mm film.Until now, rings have a history of bad machining and causing untold moments of panic.THIS ring is EXCELLENT ! It is well-made, has mass (not flimsy), comes nicely packaged (though I will put mine in a hard/styrene filter case), and is a well-thought out piece of gear.I will be looking for other products from this company including other step rings.If you get one of these and don't like it, I'd like to hear about it. For now I amthinking that this is start-up company committed to rising to the top and plans ongetting there by making the best gear possible. disclaimer: No one gave me free gear to shill for this company/product.I'm writing because what I paid for exceeded my expectations: somethingthat rarely happens. 5Terrific company selling really great products!!! I purchased this stepup ring from Breakthrough Photography for a couple of reasons. First it is made from brass which gives fewer problems when trying to remove a ring from a lens. the second reason is because I supported Breakthrough photography's kick starter project to develop their X4 circular polarizer. I have been VERY satisfied their CPL as well as VERY satisfied with their customer service after the sale. When I had a problem of uncertain cause with my CPL they replaced it at no cost to me - totally fantastic customer service IMHO. I highly recommend any breakthrough Photography products based upon my experience with this company. 5Buy This Ring Breakthrough Photography step-up rings cost about four times the price of the common rings and they are worth every penny. After receiving two new aluminum $6 rings that were bent when I opened the box, I found the Breakthrough CNC cut brass ones, and I have only bought their rings since then. Even if the cheaper aluminum rings were not so flimsy, the threads on the Breakthrough rings are so much smoother it would still be worth the price. The knurled outer edge gives a much better grip than even the Tiffen rings, which are half the price of the Breakthrough rings and still made from aluminum. I have five or six of the Breakthrough rings in different sizes, and they are the only kind I will buy. Of all the instances I know of where you really do get what you pay for, these rings versus the other step-up rings on the market are the most black and white, easily seen difference. 5Nice Ring! Hesitated ordering due to the price being so much higher than aluminum step-up-rings, and not sure it could be that much better. This is a very nice ring. The ring is about three times heavier than the aluminum versions, so still light, and very well made. The biggest plus, and the reason I was even considering this ring, is it doesn't stick like the aluminum rings I have used. In spite of my best efforts, I have had aluminum rings stick to the point I didn't think I would ever get the filter off. A filter wrench didn't even help. Just time and determination. It seemed to just be the risk you took when using them, regardless of brand or price. Looks like this problem has been solved with the Breakthrough Photography ring. I have tried to get this ring stuck, intentionally tightening down a B+W CPL on it, and it comes loose every time, using fingers only, with about the same force used to put it on. No longer will I be running around with filters only partially screwed on. 5Surprisingly good step-up ring... Who knew that a step-up ring could generate so many reviews? Well, there is a reason. These step-up rings do not bind up like other rings. First of all, these rings are brass, which tend not to bind up. But the saving grace on these Breakthroughs are the knurled edge, which gives you purchase when you need to twist the 77mm filter off the adapter ring. I cannot tell you how many times I've seen guys trying to remove filters off adapter rings and then give up and throw the whole thing into their bags. Then have to purchase more adapter rings for other filters. Craziness. Just buy the Breakthrough adapter rings. This adapter ring will not do that. I use the 58mm to 77mm step-up ring for a mid range zoom and filters from my long telephoto primes. 5A well made step-up ring that does not bind to the filter! I ordered this step-up ring in hope to find out if it's really as good as ppl say and if it will solve the binding issue I had with *every single step-up ring* I bought so far.The short answer is: Yes.The longer answer:Usually I make sure I don't screw a filter all the way into a step-up ring, so it's easier to remove it. However, when working with C-PL, I usually end up with the filter getting screwed tighter and tighter as I use it more and more with a step-up ring. The result is that most often than not, I find myself struggling to separate the two, even with filter wrenches.With this step-up ring, the first thing I did was to take my C-PL filter and screw it all the way in and see if I can unscrew it using my hands. Each time I screwed it tighter and tighter. So far - I have no problems unscrewing the filter, even when it's screwed into the ring as tight as possible.To sum it up:This step-up ring is a little heavier than the others I've had, the ridges on it are a great feature as it gives you more grip for separating it from a filter, it's definitely well made, and (most important) it's doing exactly what you expect it to do without the risk of binding with your filters. 5It works well; packaging leaves much to be desired Offhand this step-up ring works well. The textured, knurled grip helps a lot when trying to unscrew a filter from it. Being brass it helps from the threads seizing and the blackening should help like flare/unwanted reflections.One thing to note is that unlike my other step-up rings sourced via a different manufacturer, this comes with no case whatsoever. The packaging was a plastic zip-sleeve which included the ring and a microfibre towel. The shipping envelope was a simple bubble-wrap plastic envelope with no stiffening whatsoever. This concerns me given the fact that the ring could have been bent in transit. Thankfully, mine wasn't and it threaded easy to my lens and my filters. Given the nature of the shipping packaging and the lack of a case, this should be concerning for any photographer--I personally would hate to have the filter threads damaged on an expensive filter or the filter threads of an even more expensive lens damage due to the ring being bent or damaged in transit on an otherwise great product.The seller/shipper should consider more robust packaging: either include a stiff plastic holder (the ones Breakthrough Photography uses for it's ND filters would work), or ship it in a sturdy box, not a flimsy envelope.Don't get me wrong though...the Step-up ring itself is very well-designed; just take caution when threading one the 1st time. If it threads on smoothly you're good to go. 4Excellent manufacturing Breakthough Photography is the only brand of ND filter (X4 series) that I will purchase because of their quality and lack of color distortion. But lets face it...this is just an 'adapter ring'. And it is expensive. That said, the gnarled edges and quality make up for some of the price. This is a buy once and keep forever product. Plus it matches my existing BP ND filters and doesn't look like a cheap knockoff. So while it is fairly expensive, I highly recommend it. I plan on purchasing additional adapters from them. 5It is easy to grip If you are familiar with a breakthrough Photography's filters, then this adapter will not be a surprise to you. This adapter is essentially the same quality as the threaded brass rings on their x4 filters. It is easy to grip, thanks to the knurled edges, and filters don't get stuck. This adapter is an excellent product. So far everything I have bought from Breakthrough Photography has been phenomenal. I own their x4 6-stop ND filter, x4 10-stop filter, and their x4 circular polarizer. 5
