The LEE Filter holder is designed to be as flexible as
possible, allowing the photographer to create a filter
holder in a way that will match his or her individual
needs and style of photography.
Whether you have a foundation, upgrade or
professional kit the assembly follows the same basic
rules. Only the configurations may vary depending on
your filter requirements.
To assemble the unit, the holder plate should be
placed on a flat surface, with the words LEE England
face down. The brass finger bolt is a plunger that pulls
in and out and should not be unscrewed. This should
be located on the side as in the diagram above to
prevent the risk of it scratching the filters when in use.
The filter guides can then be stacked on top of the
plate and finally screwed into place. The rear blade is
flat and has four holes and should be placed closest to
the holder plate. Your required number of filter guides
can then be added in front of this.
Remember to place equal numbers of guides, in the
same order, on either side of the holder, as these make
up the slots into which the filters slide.
The standard filter guide is for 2mm filters ( guide #2 ).
This takes LEE resin and mounted polyester filters.
The #1 guide will take unmounted polyester filters,
although it is recommended that polyester filters are
mounted for use in the filter holder system .

If a #1 guide is fitted, it should be mounted directly on
top of the rear blade. To enable the use of lens shades
or the tandem adaptor, the front filter slot should be
made from #2 guides.
A #4 guide for 4mm glass filters is also available upon
request, but not included in most kits.
When the required number of filter guides have been
- selected;-thdace-blade (which is flat, and has 2
countersunk holes) finishes the front end .
You may find it easier to thread the assembled stack
of guides onto the screws first, which holds them
together whilst they are finally positioned and
attached . The screws should be firmly tightened,
but not overly so.
To enable the use of 105mm screw-in accessories,
such as the LEE polariser, a 105mm accessory ring
(available separately) can be fixed to the front of
the assembly instead of the face blades.
