Freedom Ring is a creative filter holder designed for photographers and filmmakers who want more freedom when working with light, reflections, refractions, and in-camera effects.
Instead of keeping a filter fixed in front of the lens, Freedom Ring allows you to hold, position, move, rotate, and combine your filters in new ways. It is available in 77mm and 95mm versions, giving you more flexibility to experiment and create more dynamic setups with your SZ Filters.
Freedom Ring can hold compatible SZ Filters using traditional threaded mounting or the Filter Magnet Pro system.
This allows you to quickly attach, remove, rotate, or combine different effects during a shoot. You can use diffusion filters, kaleidoscopic effects, light streaks, reflections, liquid filters, and more.
Instead of using a filter as a fixed accessory, Freedom Ring allows you to make it an active part of the composition.
The transparent handle is not designed only to hold the Freedom Ring.
It can also become part of the image.
By bringing it closer to the lens, moving it in front of a light source, or changing its position within the scene, it can create reflections, refractions, flare, and organic distortion directly in camera.
Small changes in angle, distance, or movement can create completely different results.
This makes it an ideal tool for photographers and filmmakers who enjoy experimenting with practical light, color, texture, and real in-camera effects.
Freedom Ring features threaded mounting points on both ends of the handle.
This allows it to connect to tripods, articulating arms, and other compatible support systems.
You can hold it by hand for more spontaneous effects, mount it to a rig for more consistent results, or position it near the lens while filming.
It is a versatile tool for portraits, music videos, fashion photography, weddings, automotive photography, editorial shoots, and any project where you want more control over how light interacts with the image while developing your own visual style.
Hold Freedom Ring near the lens and slowly move the filter while observing how the light changes within the frame.
You can move it closer or farther away, rotate it, or tilt it to create reflections, distortion, light streaks, or more abstract effects.
Freedom Ring allows you to experiment with different SZ Filters.
Try it with Psyco Kaleido for more fragmented and psychedelic effects, Psyco Black Hole to add depth and color, Double Liner to work with light streaks, or liquid filters for more dynamic reflections.
Each combination can react differently depending on the light, angle, and movement.
Freedom Ring works especially well when you have visible light sources inside or near the scene.
LED lights, neon signs, headlights, storefronts, windows, city reflections, or small practical lights can help you create more interesting effects.
Try moving the transparent handle in front of those light sources to create refractions and flare directly in camera.
For more controlled results, you can mount Freedom Ring on a tripod, articulating arm, or compatible rig.
It features standard 1/4”-20 threaded mounting points, making it compatible with most tripods, articulating arms, and camera accessories.
This is useful when you want to repeat an effect, film video, or maintain a specific position during a shoot.
It can also help you create more complex compositions without having to hold the accessory throughout the entire shot.
Freedom Ring is designed for creators who do not want to use their filters in only one way.
It allows you to experiment, combine tools, and discover effects that feel more personal to your work.
Because sometimes the most interesting result comes from changing the angle, moving the light, and trying something unexpected.
Freedom Ring was created for photographers and filmmakers who want to explore new ways of working with creative filters, light, and movement.
It is not only about placing a filter in front of the camera. It is about moving it, combining it, and making it part of the image.
