![]() The kaleidoscope filter only comes in a 77mm filter thread, which is great if that's the same as your lens, but a lot of lenses have a different sized thread. Using a step up ring with the kaleidoscope filter If you're using a tripod and your subject is still, it might be best to use manual focus so that you can be sure it's as sharp as possible in the centre, but generally speaking most AF systems shouldn't have too much trouble focusing on your subject with this filter. I'd suggest setting your AF point to the centre of the image since that's the only part of the filter that is in the same plane as the lens itself, otherwise autofocus systems can sometimes get confused by the filter. That said, personally, I recommend using this at wider apertures (f2.8 and below) and usually with a typical portrait focal length (35mm-70mm), especially when you're starting out so you can get used to working with an unusual filter like this, and then branch out when you're comfortable to more experimental looks with wide-angle lenses and narrow apertures. The photos you'll capture will be unique, and that's because you'll use it in your own way. There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to a filter like this.
