Designed specifically for use with the Voigtlander 10mm f/5.6, the NiSi 150mm filter holder accepts 150 mm square and rectangular filters. It provides a stable mounting solution that supports multiple graduated and solid filters while allowing rotation and precise positioning for landscape and architectural photography.
This filter holder was developed especially to fit the Voigtlander 10mm f/5.6 and to work with 150 mm square filters. You can mount 150 mm rectangular or square filters and move them up or down in the holder to match scene composition. The holder supports graduated filters that come with soft or hard transitions, enabling you to blend the transition into the scene where needed.
NiSi uses aviation-grade aluminum processed by CNC machining to produce a single-element structure for the holder. The matte black frosted finish reduces surface reflections. In addition, screw accessories are manufactured from copper and receive black nickel plating for longevity. Together, these choices aim to keep the holder durable and to reduce the influence of stray light on imaging.
Square and rectangular filter systems solve problems that round, screw-on filters cannot. For example, one square or rectangular filter can be used with different lens sizes when you have the appropriate adapter rings. This flexibility reduces the number of individual filters you need to carry.
When shooting landscapes, you can shift a rectangular graduated filter up or down in the holder to balance bright skies and darker foregrounds. Because the filter can be positioned precisely, the transition between dark and clear areas can often be blended into the scene almost imperceptibly.

Question: Is this holder compatible with lenses other than the Voigtlander 10mm f/5.6?
Answer: The holder is specially designed for the Voigtlander 10mm f/5.6 and for 150 mm square filters. However, square and rectangular filter systems can be used across different lenses when you have the appropriate adapter rings, as noted in the product description.
Question: How many filters can I use at once, and can I rotate them?
Answer: You can stack up to three 150 mm filters in the holder, and the assembly allows 360-degree rotation so you can adjust orientation without removing the holder from the lens.
Question: Will the holder cause vignetting on my images?
Answer: The holder is designed without vignetting for the stated lens and filter size. Its geometry aims to avoid darkened corners when used as specified.
Question: What materials and finishes are used to ensure durability and low stray light?
Answer: The body is machined from aviation-grade aluminum as a single element via CNC. The surface has a matte black frosted finish and the screw accessories are copper with black nickel plating, all intended to improve durability and reduce stray light influence on imaging.
Question: Can I use graduated filters with this system to balance a bright sky and shaded foreground?
Answer: Yes. Rectangular and square graduated filters can be shifted up or down in the holder, letting you position the transition to balance bright and dark areas in the scene. Graduated filters with soft or hard transitions are compatible and commonly used for this purpose.
