Tiffen Magnetic Control System (MCS): Fast & Secure Filter Mounting

Product information "Tiffen Magnetic Control System (MCS): Fast & Secure Filter Mounting"

The Tiffen Magnetic Control System (MCS) revolutionizes the way you attach filters to your lenses. This innovative system uses magnetic force to quickly and securely connect Tiffen filters to your lens, eliminating the hassle of traditional screw-on filters. The MCS system consists of a magnetic adapter ring that attaches to your lens's filter threads and MCS filters with integrated magnets. This allows for instant filter changes, saving valuable time on set or in the field. The strong magnetic connection ensures a secure and reliable hold, even in demanding shooting situations.

The MCS system is designed for speed and convenience. Simply screw the magnetic adapter ring onto your lens once, and then you can effortlessly attach and detach any MCS filter. This is especially beneficial when using multiple filters or when needing to quickly switch between different filter effects. The MCS system is compatible with a wide range of Tiffen filters, including ND, Polarizing, Color, and Diffusion filters, offering a complete filter solution for various creative needs. Each MCS filter comes with front and rear magnetic protective caps to ensure safe storage and transport.

The Tiffen MCS system not only offers speed and convenience but also maintains the high optical quality that Tiffen filters are known for. The filters are manufactured using Tiffen’s renowned ColorCore™ technology, where the filter material is laminated between two pieces of optical glass and then ground and polished to precise tolerances. This ensures exceptional image quality and color fidelity. The MCS system is available in common filter sizes (58mm, 77mm, and 82mm) and is compatible with other sizes using step-up rings, allowing for use with a wide range of lenses.
