The Freewell 72 mm base ring serves as the entry point to the modular Real Locking VND/CPL system. Thanks to precision aluminum machining, it provides stable, durable, and repeatable mounting that handles frequent filter attachment and removal. The dual-latch cap with built-in NFC protects the lens and any attached filter, while enabling fast access to user materials via smartphone.
