Handy, with some failings
I like the idea of magnetic filters and lens caps, but, with my standard prime lens, there were a couple of difficulties. I am thinking of a Sony a6300 with its 35mm lens.
The first is that it is hard to remove the cap without also removing the filter, they stick together so well.
The second, more serious, is that, after fitting the magnetic empty ring, I could no longer remove or use the lens hood.
The solution seems to be to discard the empty ring and screw the filter in directly! But then, all you gain over a conventional filter is an easy-remove magnetic cap.
