Using theLensmate Quick-Change Filter Adapter kit, only the tiny receiver stays on the camera (it adds only 3mm to the depth of the camera). The filter/filter holder assembly bayonets onto the receiver for quick changes without having to thread the filter on and off. The filter holder is retained by a low tension locking system, so very little torque is applied to the lens barrel when attaching and detaching it.

There isno chance of flash blockageat any focal length (with the filter holder removed), since the receiver is smaller in diameter than the end of the lens barrel. It attaches to the camera using a 3M dual-sided adhesive film which holds tenaciously yet is easy to remove cleanly and safely when desired.

We designed the system so that the filter remains in the filter holder and is attached/detached as an assembly. The filter holder bayonets onto camera with less than 90 of rotation to the locked position.

The low tension locking systemassures that the lens barrel won't be harmed by over-enthusiastic tightening (or loosening) of the filter. The ability to quickly change the filter without having to thread/unthread should appeal to filter users. You'll find that you're more likely to use your filters when they can be mounted and removed this easily.

The Sony RX100 V Quick Change Filter Adapter Kit 52mm (also fits RX100 IV, RX100 III /RX100 II /RX100)is comprised of the following:

  • The receiver with custom 3M adhesive ring (Part 1- stays on the camera)
  • The filter holder (Part 2)
  • 52mm clip in style lens cap with tether.
  • A hinged lid container for the filter/filter holder/lens cap assembly for convenient storage.
  • Safe removal device.
  • Install tool only required for RX100 V, RX100 IV & RX100 III.

Kit includes:

HMC Ultraviolet (UV) Filter- removes Haze and helps protect your cameras from dust, moisture and scratches.

Without UV Filter With UV Filter


Circular Polarizing Filter (double coated)- dramatically deepens blue skies, reduces unwanted reflections on nonmetallic surfaces and saturates colors, especially outdoors. The filter can be rotated to achieve the desired effect.

Without Polarizer With Polarizer


ND8 Neutral Density Filter (double coated)- Neutral Density filters have several uses and offer the possibility to achieve otherwise unachievable results. ND filters appear gray and reduce the amount of light reaching the film or sensor. They have no effect on color balance.

Their primary uses are:

  • To enable slower shutter speeds to be used, to record movement or motion blur in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars.
  • To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background and improve bokeh. The ND8 will reduce the light transmission by 3 stops.

Important Tips

We recommend attaching and detaching filters from the filter holder when it's off the camera. In fact, you can't unscrew the filter from the filter holder on the camera because it will just remove the filter/ holder assembly as it was designed to do. Don't over tighten the filter - it requires little force to stay attached to the holder.


If you use a snug fitting bag or case, we recommend removing the filter holder/filter assembly before stowing the camera. If you do leave it on, be sure to check that the filter holder is still in the locked position when you use it again.

Some polarizers rotate with enough friction to remove the filter holder assembly when rotated in the direction of removal. If this happens, rotate the polarizer in the direction of attachment only.

If you use a wrist strap, be aware that jostling can dislodge the filter holder from the camera.

Removing the Lensmate RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 Quick-change receiver from the camera

  • Don't turn the camera on, just remove the battery so you don't accidentally power up the camera. Lay the camera on its back. Let the thread of the removal tool find the space between the receiver and the end of the lens. Pull down and across - it should easily separate the two.
  • Don't reuse the same adhesive once removed as it's probably been compromised in the removal process.

  • Best done at room temperature.
  • Turn the camera on and remove the battery.
  • Use the alcohol wipe to clean the front of the lens barrel. Use care not to squeeze excess fluid onto the camera. Allow to dry completely.
  • Part 1 comes with orange tape across the part marking the 2 "ears", when the orange tape is parallel to the top of the camera, the "ears" will be level. This positioning does not affect the function of mounting the filter - it's just for aesthetics. After removing the backing from the adhesive, use the thumb and forefinger of both hands to lower the ring into position, noting the aforementioned position of the orange tape (which can be removed beforehand if preferred). If you're happy with the position of the ring, press it down lightly. If not, you can still reposition the ring to your liking.
  • Replace the battery and turn the camera off to retract the lens. Now press firmly on the ring, remove the orange tape if you haven't already, and installation is complete. To use, screw your filter into the holder, then simply bayonet this assembly onto the receiver and start shooting.

Removing the Lensmate RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 Quick-change receiver from the camera

    • How much does the Lensmate RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 Filter adapter weigh?
      The combined weight of the receiver and filter holder is about 3 grams. A thin 52mm polarizer weighs about 15 grams for a combined weight of 18 grams. With the vented hood added, total weight is 30 grams.

    • Will the camera be as "pocketable" with the RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 Filter adapter added?
      You'd probably not even notice the difference - the receiver itself adds only 3mm or 1/8" to the camera.

    • I am going to a hot and humid climate, is the adhesive on the part that stays on the camera still going to hold?
      Yes, the adhesive is good to at least 200 deg F (~93 deg C). Humidity should not be a factor. If you want to read more about the adhesive it's 3M 9731.


    • Can I attach a conversion lens with the adapter?
      We recommend attaching only filters or macro lenses to the RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 as a conversion lens weight could damage the quick change system or the cameras zoom lens..

    • Will using the Lensmate RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 filter adapter void my warranty?
      If you need to send the camera in for service, just remove the receiver. It will come off cleanly with no residue left on the camera.

  • Can I reattach the filter receiver after removing it?

    We don't recommend it - the adhesive is usually compromised and won't have the bond strength it had. (We no longer sell the adhesive sticker alone because its placement on the receiver is critical and requires a fixture to position it precisely.)

    If you find the need to remove the receiver and would like to replace it, it's best to replace it with a new receiver which we now sell singly. When you return your used receiver, you will receive a full refund for the item.

  • Will the receiver on the camera lens affect the built in lens cover?
    No, the RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 receiver does not affect the automatic lens cover in any way.
  • Can I use more than one filter at a time?
    You can stack 2 ND filters of normal depth, or one normal depth polarizer + ND filter with no vignetting.

  • I saw on the internet someone had trouble with the B+W XS-Pro circular polarizer which is a "slim" filter and the Quick Change Filter Adapter.

    For some reason the housing on the B+W XS-Pro circular polarizer is different than other polarizer brands, in that the back piece of glass, that does not move, is set closer to the threads on the backside. Our bayonet mount on Part 2 the actual filter holder uses tiny tabs, this B&W polarizer glass being set back in the housing is getting contact. The work around is to use a UV filter or a 52mm - 52mm step ring to screw the B&W polarizer to, so it's shallow backside has enough room.

    We have been selling our custom Quick Change Filter adapter Kit design for about 9 years now, on many different camera models, and since this single B&W Slim Polarizer is the exception to all standard filters that do fit - we feel the workaround is acceptable.

  • Will the quick change affect the built in flash?
    The built in flash only works to about 6 feet in front of the camera, you would need to remove Part 2 when using the flash to avoid shadowing in the bottom right hand side of your image.
  • Can I use Part 1 or Part 2 of the RX100 V / RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II / RX100 with your prior discontinued RX100 II/RX100 quick change system ?
    No, the RX100 IV / RX100 III / RX100 II /R X100 quick change system components are not interchangeable with our prior model quick change system.
  • Can I use the Sony fitted case with the Quick Change system?
    Yes you may use the Sony fitted case. To close the case you will need to remove Part 2 and whatever filter you might have attached, leaving Part 1 on the camera.
