Okay so after much thought i figured this out, i have a fisheye that gets alot of vignetting if i have my uv filter on so ive been taking it off everytime i use my fisheye. that got annoying and i was getting dust on my stock cam lens, so i figured i woudl do this...

using the glass from a 72mm filter and the lockring i found a way to put the 7smm filter glass below the threads of the stock lens so you can put other stuff on it without taking the uv glasss out

watch the video for a better understanding...

What's the point? Then you just end up shooting through some cheap $10 glass and you still get dust on the front element...

did you make this? can you make a step up ring from 125mm to 127mm?

well with that i get dust on the cheap glass, not on the actual front element of the camera, id rather clean shitty glass over and over and potentially scratch it then on my stock lens...

plus ive been using a uv filter since i got my cam and if used 100bs without them and there is no difference in quality...
