To secure the LEE Elements Big Stopper filter, carefully thread it onto your lens until it is snug. Always double-check that it is properly attached before beginning your photo shoot to prevent it from detaching.

Great filter as expected by Lee but my only concern is threading it onto the camera. Sometimes it seems like it is securely on only for it to fall off. The filter itself is excellent with no color changes.
