Hey all,

Just bought this kit today hoping that it would fit onto my canon EF 16-35mm wide angle lens and it unfortunately does not fit. Does anybody know an alternatuve adaptor/filter holder kit that would work on this lens?

And help would be most apppreciated as was looking forward to using my new hitech pro stop filter in the lake district this weekend.

Regards,

David
 
Would the new Hitech pro stop fit into a Cokin filter holder?
 
I've just acquired the same kit, plus a 77mm adapter which works fine on my 17-40. Why won't the 82mm fit on your 16-35? Surely that's the right size? I got an 82mm adapter in the set I bought. If you want to meet to try it out to see whether you got a bad copy then let me know (live East Finchley, work Moorgate).

Thanks Ian, I have just been on the phone with Hitech and they explained why it does not fit and that I would need the standard 82mm adaptor rather than the wide angle 82mm adaptor. Hopefully can swap the two and then just remove any unwanted vignetting in post production. But all in all I would have to say, customer service so far is perfect.
 
Incredibly kind Ian, however Teamwork (where I bought it from) have the stock so all is good. Thanks.
