## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone know if this is coarse or fine/standard pitch? I am needing one for Canon 28-70L f/2 lens**
A: This filters suits the Canon RF28-70 as it has a 1.0 thread pitch.

**Q: Will this filter work for a wide angle zoom lens (10 -24 MM)?**
A: As long as your zoom lens has a filter thread, you can mount a ND-Vario. Check the filter thread of your lens before you order a NiSi True Color ND-Vario. You want to make sure that the filter threads match. 

You may see a X-pattern at wide open (focal lengths between 10 and 14mm) due to the nature of ultra wide zoom lenses. At these focal lengths, you may not be able to use the ND-Vario. It all depends on the lens.

**Q: will the 43mm work with fuji's 23mm f2 ?**
A: Yes. It is the correct size for that lens.

**Q: Is it better to take 95mm with step ring for my 82 mm to prevent Vignetting? Or better to take same size exactly and and attach it to lens directly?**
A: The Swift True Color ND-Vario's step up in size to help reduce vignetting. There is no need to use a 95mm with a step-up ring as this will only push the filter system further out from the lens. We recommend using the exact size.
