housings. The cosmetically appealing black anodized aluminum prevents corrosion 

increases abrasion resistance and does not reflect light in optical set-ups. 

Superior Quality Optical Glass & Coatings 

Professional high-quality optical glass with multi-layer coatings produce optimum 

image quality with high resistance to scratching. 

More Creative Control 

Whether you want to go wider, tele or close-up, chances are Century makes just

Complete Range of Professional Lens Attachments 

Wide Angle Attachments 

Increase your wide angle field of view by a factor of the lens add-on. Available 

in Non Zoom, Partial Zoom and Full Zoom attachments. 

Telephoto Attachments 

Increase the telephoto focal length of the lens, making distant objects appear 

magnified. This effect is similar to moving closer to the object. 

Fisheye Attachments

exaggerates depth, pulling nearby objects closer and causing distant objects to 

recede into the background. 

Achromatic Diopters (aka Macro Zoom Attachments)

thereby preserving full zoom capabilities. Ideal for focusing tightly on small 

objects in tabletop, miniature, and flat field work. Two corrective elements 

combine to produce edge-to-edge sharpness.

an 8-120mm f/1.7 lens to a 16-240mm f/3.4, 

(two-stop loss). Add a 1.6X Tele to the front and it 

becomes 26-384mm f/3.4.

Schneider variable ND offer 11 stops (ND 3.3) attenuation with no 

blue color shift at max. density, a common problem with inferior brands. 

The kit is comprised of a screw-on 77mm True-Match Circular Polarizer 

(non-rotating) that threads to the front of the camera lens, and the 77mm adapter 

ring from the Landscape Control Kit that is then screwed onto it. The 4x4 True- 

Match Linear Polarizer slides into the 4” Filter Holder 4mm slot in front, which is 

then clipped onto the adapter ring. The filter holder can then be rotated to 

produce varying levels of density, from 1-1/3 to 11 stops of light loss.

77mm True-Match Variable ND Filter Kit 

The perfect choice for DSLR cameras with high ISO settings, it allows the 

user to select the lens f/stop & camera speed independent of ambient 

light conditions. Works in conjunction with Schneider’s DSLR 4” 

Filter Support system. This carefully matched set of filters work in 

combination, to produce a density range from 1-1/3 stop loss in 

full transmission to 11 stops full attenuation. By selecting the best 

quality materials, Schneider’s variable ND offers 11 stops (ND 3.3) 

attenuation with no blue color shift at maximum density (common 

problem with inferior or unmatched materials.) The kit is comprised 

of a screw-on True-Match filter in 67mm to 95mm sizes that mount on the 

camera lens, a Schneider 4x4 rotating 2-slot filter holder, and a True-Match 

4”x4” filter. The filters can be purchased separately, without the filter holder 

for those who already have a 4”x4” rotating matte box with 4mm slots. 

Size: 4x4, 77mm and 95. Step Rings available for smaller sizes. 

77mm True-Match Vari-ND Thread-In 

The 77mm True-Match Vari-ND Thread-In is a single, low 

profile filter with both True-Match Polarizing filters in the correct 

orientation for maximum ease of use and efficiency. The low 

profile ring prevents vignetting on most DSLR camera lenses. 

By simply turning the built-in rotating ring, the photographer 

dials in the perfect amount of ND for the scene, from 1-1/3 to 

11 stops of light loss. Step rings are available in common sizes 

to adapt the 77mm size to smaller lens thread diameters.
