The NiSi S6 ALPHA 150mm Filter Holder adapts the NiSi S6 system to the Laowa FF S 15mm F4.5 W-Dreamer lens. It supports two 150mm wide square filters (2mm thick) and offers full 360° rotation, making it suitable for ultra-wide-angle landscape work.
The S6 Alpha employs a locking mechanism that holds the main filter holder firmly in place. An integrated wheel lets you rotate the holder smoothly and lock it naturally when you find the desired angle. As a result, you can adjust filter orientation precisely and keep the holder secure during shooting.
Ghosting and flare can affect image clarity, especially with wide focal lengths. NiSi addresses this by applying the same matt treatment on the S6 main adaptor that is used in high-end lens hoods. This design reduces unwanted reflections and helps maintain image quality when using filters.
The holder attaches and detaches quickly so you do not need to remove the lens to mount or remove the system. Clips at the front of the holder secure the 150mm filters and allow rapid removal and replacement. Therefore, you can change filters in the field with minimal interruption to your shooting.
In addition to standard 150mm square filters, the S6 ALPHA is compatible with S6 Circular Filters, including polarizers (sold separately). This compatibility gives you more options to control reflections and contrast without changing the basic holder setup.

Question: Will the S6 Alpha fit the Laowa FF S 15mm F4.5 W-Dreamer out of the box?
Answer: Yes. This kit includes the NiSi S6 adapter specifically for the Laowa FF S 15mm F4.5 W-Dreamer, so it is designed to fit that lens.
Question: How many filters can I use at once and what thickness do they need to be?
Answer: The holder supports two 150mm wide filters with a thickness of 2mm each, allowing you to stack two square filters simultaneously.
Question: Can I rotate the filters to control grad placement or polarizer angle?
Answer: Yes. The holder offers 360° rotation and features an integrated wheel for smooth rotation and secure locking, giving you precise control over filter orientation.
Question: Will this help reduce ghosting and flare when shooting wide angles?
Answer: The S6 main adaptor uses a matt treatment similar to high-end lens hoods to minimize reflections, which helps reduce ghosting and flare when using filters on wide-angle lenses.
