Tiffen launches new Magnetic Control System

The new Tiffen  Magnetic Control System uses magnetic power to swiftly and securely attach genuine Tiffen filters to lens fronts.  

Tiffen's Magnetic Control System (MCS) was developed to eliminate the continuous drag of threading filters on and off, while maintaining a safe and positive lock at the same time. MCS makes installation and removal lightning-fast and, thanks to their extremely strong magnetic field, the company says that filters stay locked in position even during demanding shooting situations. Users then just remove the filters from the optic as needed without modification to the native lens.

The MCS Adapter easily rotates on to the lens' front threads and can then stay on indefinitely or detach instantly by gripping the knurled edge and gently rotating. Once in place, the lens instantly receives any Tiffen MCS precision glass filter.  Each filter comes with front and rear magnetic protector caps and a magnetic adapter of the filter size.

 All MCS filters are easily identified due to their matte black finish, distinctive blue ring, and handy raised edge. Each MCS filter includes a matching lens cap that instantly attaches to the filter front or directly fits to the lens via the MCS magnetic lock.  

 MCS Filters come in 58mm, 77mm, and 82mm with available Step-up MCS Magnetic Adapters to accommodate other sizes.
