Nikon SY-1-77 Adapter Ring (77mm)
Nikon SY-1-77 Adapter Ring (77mm) | Mount the SX-1 to your lens
Unlike a filter, the Nikon SY-1-77 Adapter Ring (77mm) connects a lens’s 77mm filter thread to the SX-1 attachment ring used with Nikon’s wireless Close-up Speedlight Systems. It’s intended for owners of the R1 or R1C1 system who need that specific link between their lens and the SX-1. Use it to set up the close-up lighting system on a compatible lens for photographing small subjects, or to move the SX-1 setup to another lens that has the same filter-thread size. The ring’s job is focused: it provides the lens-side fit for the attachment ring, rather than serving as a filter or as a flash unit itself. That makes it a useful part to identify when assembling or replacing the adapter in an R1 or R1C1 close-up lighting kit. The key match is the lens thread and the SX-1 connection; both matter for this particular setup.
On the lens
- 77mm filter-thread fit: The ring is made for lenses with a 77mm filter thread. Matching that thread is what allows the adapter to connect to the intended lens.
- SX-1 connection: It provides the lens-side connection for the SX-1 attachment ring. That gives the close-up system’s mounting ring a point of attachment on the lens.
- For the R1 system: Nikon specifies this adapter for use with the R1 Close-up Speedlight System’s SX-1 ring. It’s the relevant adapter when that is the system you’re setting up.
- For the R1C1 system: The same ring is also intended for the R1C1 system’s SX-1 attachment ring. One adapter specification covers both named systems.
- Wireless close-up lighting: The SX-1 is part of Nikon’s wireless Close-up Speedlight System. This ring handles the lens attachment side of that close-up setup.
Specialist Note
77mm is the filter-thread size to match here: the ring is for a lens with that exact thread, not a general adapter for different sizes. I’d point R1 and R1C1 owners to the SY-1-77 when they need to mount the system’s SX-1 ring on a compatible lens for close-up lighting. For small-subject work, the setup is straightforward in purpose: this adapter connects the lens to the SX-1, which belongs to the wireless close-up system. It’s a very specific component, so its value is in that fit; it won’t replace the SX-1 ring or the lighting system itself.
