The ND4 filter is designed as a direct replacement for the UV filter that comes fitted as standard.
You need to hold the camera body firmly , and the using three or four fingers grasp the UV filter and turn anti-clockwise, a pair of rubber gloves or such can help. But be gentle the threaded ring is quite delicate and if you grip too hard then it effectively squashes it slightly making it more difficult to move. When I fitted my ND filters (4, 8 & 16) I put the tiniest smear of petroleum jelly onto the threads, that helps make it easier next time. And just finger tight and no more is all that is required, the threads are very delicate so it's a good idea not to try and rush things. |
