Compared to the previous version, EF 3 Mounting Adapter w\/ e-ND not only possesses the traditional way to rotate the lens clockwise, but also keeps active locking to fasten the lens, thus the EF lens can be installed quickly and locked clockwise as the PL lens, which is suitable for the utilization of Follow Focus when shooting.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eElectronic ND (Electronic Neutral Density Filter) is based on modern liquid crystal materials and optics controlled electronically, which is completely unlike conventional technology such as a rotating filter wheel or polarising ND Filters.

However, for mounting adapter with e-ND, MAVO\/TERRA can detect the e-ND automatically, and get the status of e-ND on every slight adjustment operation on e-ND, and then calibrate any potential minor color shift based on the data received.
