I've been enjoying the use of my 77mm B+W 10-stop ND filter, but so far have been unable to use it on my Lensbaby Composer. I realize LB just came out with a step-up ring, but it's overpriced in my opinion. The problem I have with this filter is that it's too dark to use the camera's viewfinder. I find myself constantly screwing it on and off to focus and recompose shots, which is tiresome.

I machined these parts out of PVC on the lathe. The ring in the top photo is held on the lens with a .025" thick flange between the front bezel and the focus ring. It will stay permanently attached to the lens even when I'm not using the filter. It has the added benefit of remedying the sloppy fit of the lensbaby's focus ring.

The ring in the bottom photo allows me to drop my filter in, and slide it over the ring attached to the lens. The fit of the two rings is tight enough to keep the filter from falling off, but still free enough to allow me to quickly take it on and off.

Problem solved!

A quick and easy star filter I build. While you can create the effect by holding the wire mesh directly in front of the lens, a ring to keep in place makes it easier to take the photos.

I made this in less than half an hour. I had some wire mesh, an old plastic cup that fit over my camera lens, and a roll of masking tape,

Just make a ring that fits over the barrel of the lens (this is a little tight around the barrel, but it would be a bit better if it was a little loose), with an edge that stops just in front of the glass, place the wire mesh on that edge, then tape it securely to the ring.

Then take a few sample photos. Probably not as good as the ones you can buy, but it's hard to argue with free and working.
