Formatt-Hitech Lucroit 165mm Filter Holder

There are a number of wide angle lenses where it is not possible to fit standard filters or holders because the way the barrel of the lens is configured. The Formatt-Hitech Lucroit holder was designed by a Spanish Engineer (who was also a photographer) who wanted to find a solution to the problem with these wide angle lenses.

The holder fits on the lens by a bayonet mount with a retaining rubber ring which holds it in place. It is designed to take a completely new range of 165mm standard filters with grads in 165x200mm. This means that, unlike other systems, it will not vignette on these wide angle lenses. As it is also available with adaptors for standard 72-82mm lenses it now comprises a total high end system for the pro user.
