Modern lenses are too good, free of most optical aberrations even at their maximum aperture. This led to a whole new market emerging offering all kind of accessories to make your pictures look worse: kaleidoscope filters, prisms, streak filters and black mist/diffusion filters, the latter being what we will have a look at today.
I have previously reviewed the H&Y Revoring (which I bought from Kickstarter back in the day) and already at that time I was thinking: “Combining this ring with a whole filter system would be a good idea, right?”
The engineers at H&Y did exactly that and combined the variable Revoring with their magnetic square filter holder system.
A dream come true for filter users? Let’s have a closer look.

H&Y has been responsible for some innovative filter solutions for cameras over the last years (e.g. the magnetic filter holders) but there is still something I am sure most of us filter users are not happy with: adapter rings. This is a problem the so called “RevoRing” is meant to solve, so let us have a look how it works.
