Brand History
2025
1. Adhering to the philosophy of dedicated research and independent development, Kase has launched its first autofocus (AF) lens—the Kase 85mm F1.4 AF Lens. This lens combines exquisite design with lightweight performance; the Sony E-mount version weighs only 580g, delivering outstanding portability.In terms of core design, it pioneers an industry-first magnetic structure, equipped with Kase’s independently developed patented magnetic technology and 3rd-generation magnetic system. This design effectively protects the lens body and prevents filter jamming in case of accidental drops, significantly enhancing usability and durability. For operational convenience, the lens innovatively features an FN2 convenience control button, with a dual-button layout (FN1/FN2) that ensures an efficient shooting experience. The aperture ring is meticulously designed, with precise click stops for each aperture setting, allowing users to quickly select their desired aperture. When switched to A mode (Auto Aperture mode), the aperture automatically shifts to the maximum F1.4 without the need for additional readjustment, greatly simplifying the operation process.In terms of performance, the lens adopts an STM (Stepping Motor) autofocus motor, providing faster focusing response and higher focusing accuracy. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.7m, it can get close to shooting subjects, making it easier to capture fine details. The lens is versatile across scenarios: it not only meets the needs of professional portrait shooting but also covers macro, still life, street, architecture, landscape, and other shooting subjects, supporting both photo and video creation with a single lens.
2. The KW Revolution Plus Magnetic Filter, certified with patents in multiple countries worldwide, adopts an internal magnetic UV design that balances lens protection and ease of use. The magnetic internal adapter ring works in tandem with the MCUV (Multi-Coated UV) filter to prevent lens damage; in the event of lens drop and deformation, the filter automatically pops out to avoid jamming, substantially reducing maintenance costs.Structurally, the built-in installation of the internal adapter ring reduces the stacked filter thickness to 50% of that of similar products. Optically, the new coating technology ensures clear imaging, with a reflectivity as low as 0.1% (minimizing ghosting and flare) and light transmittance exceeding 99.3%, making it compatible with 4K/8K high-definition photography. Additionally, the chromatic filter frame addresses the low recognition issue of traditional filters—users can quickly identify filters by color, enabling efficient adaptation to different shooting scenarios.
3. The G-MCUV II—Kase redefines the professional standard of UV filters through a groundbreaking upgrade. As a high-end flagship product developed by Kase Laboratory over three years, it is not only a "golden shield" for lenses but also an "image guardian" for picture quality, returning UV filters to their original purpose of lens protection. The product uses high-quality optical glass paired with a new hardened coating, boasting a hardness of over 8H. It remains undamaged after more than 10 vertical drop tests from 1.2 meters and 100g steel ball impact tests from 1.2 meters, ensuring exceptional durability and resistance to breakage. Optically, it achieves a light transmittance of over 99.5%, with double-sided reflectivity controlled below 0.1% to effectively suppress ghosting and flare. It also features an LR41 cut-off coating to block ultraviolet (UV) rays with wavelengths below 410nm. Furthermore, the exclusive anti-mildew and antibacterial design keeps the lens clean for 3–5 years.
4. The Variable ND1.5-8& CPL& Black Mist 3-in-1 Filter offers ND stops ranging from 1.5 to 8, while integrating CPL and Black Mist functions. It provides stable light control, effectively suppresses reflections on non-metallic surfaces, and delivers soft, dreamy effects for video and portrait shooting—making it an ideal tool for video production.
5. For the Fujifilm X-half Series, Kase has launched dedicated accessories, including MCUV filters, CPL filters, Black Mist filters, VND 1.5-8 filters, lens hoods, and lens caps. Available in silver and black, these accessories meet the needs of enthusiasts with diverse requirements.
6.

Currently, the filters cover models including DJI Action 5 Pro, DJI Pocket 3, DJI Mavic 4 Pro, DJI Osmo Nano, and DJI Mini 5 Pro.
7. For telephoto lenses (commonly referred to as "long lenses" in photography), Kase has released accessories such as MCUV kits for Sony FE 400-800mm and Sigma 300-600mm lenses, as well as telephoto lens caps and adapters.
8. Kase Mobile Lenses include the Master Macro Lens Plus and a dedicated CPL . These lenses deliver enhanced shooting clarity, significantly improved image quality for both foreground subjects and backgrounds, and reduced distortion—empowering users to capture macro photography more freely.
