A must have accessory for the Sony 12-24mm lens!
As a landscape/seascape photographer, I use filters nearly every time I shoot. When I bought my Sony 12-24mm lens, the first accessory that I looked for was a filter system. After doing some research on various manufacturers that offer filter systems for this lens, I decided to buy the NiSi offering. When I received the unit, the first thing that I noticed was how well it was machined and how solid it felt. Putting it on the lens was very easy and it slide right on and locked securely. As a...

Works well as advertised
Really quite simple to install and work. The spinning circular polarizer apparatus makes it easy to adjust your polarizer without removing any filters. This thing is pretty massive though and clunky to carry around and shift on and off during hikes and such, but there's really no getting around that for any ultra wide filter system.
NiSi 150mm filter holders are made from aviation-grade aluminum with single element processed by CNC machine with Matte black frosted finish on the surface. The screw accessory are all made of copper and with black nickel plating. It's durable and will reduce the influence of stray light on the imaging. The NiSi 150mm Filter Holder for Sony 12-24mm is specially designed to be used with the Sony FE 12-24mm F/4G lens but may also work with other wide angle lenses.
Square and rectangular filter systems solve problems that round, screw-on filters often cannot resolve. To begin with, one square or rectangular filter can be used with many different size lenses. As long as you have the appropriate size adapter rings, in most cases, one filter will serve the purpose.
Another benefit is if you are shooting a landscape where the horizon line is off-center and you want to balance the light intensity in both parts of the scene, i.e. bright sky, shaded foreground. Rectangular filters allow the transition to be blended into the scene, often imperceptibly. This is because they can be shifted up and down in the filter holder to fit the scene as desired. Some graduated rectangular filters are available with soft or hard transitions from dark to clear. The soft edge is recommended for wide-angle lenses and the hard edge is recommended for normal and longer lenses.
