The NiSi S6 ALPHA 150mm Filter Holder is designed to work with ultra-wide-angle setups and specifically adapts to the Canon TSE 17mm F4. It accepts two 150mm wide square filters (2mm thick) and allows full 360° rotation, giving you control over filter orientation when composing wide landscape shots.
The S6 features a locking mechanism that keeps the main filter holder firmly in place. An integrated wheel provides smooth rotation and a natural locking feel. This system lets you adjust filter position precisely while keeping the holder stable during capture.
NiSi treats the main adapter with a matt finish similar to those used in higher-end lens hoods. This internal matting reduces unwanted reflections, helping to minimize ghosting and flare. As a result, you can expect improved image clarity when working with wide focal lengths where reflections can be more problematic.
The S6 ALPHA is designed for quick mounting and removal. You can install or remove the holder without taking your lens off the camera, which saves time in the field. Front-mounted clips secure the 150mm filters and allow rapid removal and replacement of filters during a shoot. This quick-change approach helps you maintain focus and move between shots efficiently.
The S6 Alpha supports NiSi S6 Circular Filters, including circular polarizers. Circular filters are sold separately, allowing you to expand functionality by adding polarizers or other circular accessories to the same holder system.
