I picked-up a variable ND filter for my RF 24-70/2.8 but I cannot use my lens hood with it. Are there any good solutions for having both?

Any advice appreciated. Thanks

You mean that yu can't adjust the VND while the hood is on, or you can fit the hood back over the filter?

Hi Dave,

The latter. The filter itself is too big to fit the hood over, and the filter will not drop and thread into place with the hood on.

What brand of filter? I have had that problem with a particular brand.

Dave

I'm using the B+W:
