Nikon 14-24 2.8G Filterholder

#### Nev Version 3 in Development

I am printing the first try this week and uploaded the files so anyone can be part of the development ;-)

#####So here it is

Filterholder for the Nikon 14-24 2.8

_{(and as far as I know, the first free one)}

I recently found again my love for photography and wanted do more landscape and architecture. So after some time and thought (and money!!!) I got myself the famous Nikon 14-24 2.8, great lens, but unfortunately it does not take normal filters. Even the "not so normal" cokin filters (had some 100x100) won't fit. You need 150x150mm Filters at least.

The cheapest single Filterplate costs about 115€ but that is without any holder to mount it to the lens. Those again cost from 150-500€. There is even a 3D-Printed one wich is nice but to be honest.... 3D-Printing (and therefor 3D-Printed Parts) for me has a kind of "communitiy" feel to it so if you design something great for 3D-Printing I think you should share it with others (still its ok and understandable to also sell finished parts but you should share the files!). So long story short I, of course made my own one! It needed quite some thought to get the right dimensionslos so that nothing "blocks" the picture at 14mm (about 114° angle!!!). #### Key features:

• No vignetting
• Light: at least lighter than the ones made out of metal
• Easy to print: only minimal supported areas needed
• _^almost No manual rework: ok don't nail me down on this, I sanded the inner diameter to get a better surface for the foam rubber (the inserts in the pictures are a prototype so those are heavily sanded)
• Removable holder inserts: you can remove the bottom ones to use for instance a gradual ND filter
• Interchangeable holder inserts: there will be an additional version for 2 stacked filters

================================================================== #### What you will need:

• 3D-Printer: haha... I know
• 1 Main Part
• 3 Inserts L
• 3 Inserts R
• 1,8-2mm thick self sticking foam rubber
• 6pcs 1,5x14mm cylinder pin
• _{some sandpaper}

==================================================================

#####Hope everyone likes the part and has a great time shooting photos with it ;-)




Just two more things I have to say:

1. ^{I am not to hold responsible for anyone scratching the outside of his lens or cracking a filter (becaus it drops out or smth.). The holder works great for me but your results may vary (Printer settings, material,....)}
2. ^{Please don't sell it. Since the next option is over 100€ someone might be tempted to sell some for money. Material cost plus 4 or 5 beers ;-) is fine but I would like that no one is "making money" out of it.}
