good way to capture motion in medium lighting environments
This filter is a good way to capture motion in a medium lighting environment. Being only 3-stops, even at my smallest aperture of F16, my 50mm Nikon F1.4G could not shoot outdoors at any long exposure times without overexposing parts of the image.

Overall I find my variable ND filter more useful because I can rotate the ring and change how much light is blocked and that does let me go from indoors to outdoors; pretty much any lighting condition.

I'd only buy a fixed ND like this if you know exactly what you're doing and have a specific lighting situation in mind. If you want to play around with ND filters, pay the extra money for a variable f-stop filter.

Some of my most talked-about filters were captured with ND filters. The movement of flame and water over long exposure times, shot on a tripod, can be really captivating and not something you can achieve without an ND filter.

Quality seems quite good. I didn't notice any difference in quality when compared to my 58mm Nikkor filters.
