58mm ND1000 Magnetic Lens Filter Nano-X Series - HD Waterproof Scratch-Resistant Anti-Reflection
SKU: SKU.1757
This is a solution for one of my pet peeves, taking filters off and on in the field. I always carry a CPL filter with me when doing a shoot, but it is difficult to take them off and on in the back of a Range Rover on the move. This one is protecting my Olympus 300mm f4.0 lens (UV) and allows me to quickly switch to the CPL when I need it. I ordered another set for my 72mm lenses. Great packaging, good carrying case and I'll be able to cover all my field lenses with the two sets. Extremely impressed with the ease of rotating the CPL filter. My lens cap stays on with no problem and can be either on the CPL or the bare magnetic mount. The magnet is very strong, the filters stay where you want them until you want them off.

Typical of my experience with K&F products, these are excellent filters. They are every bit as good as a couple of other, higher priced, popular and similar products. No color casts, well manufactured, and simply work as described. Save your money and buy these over the more hyped brand names.

These are so easy to use and the quality is fantastic - both the build quality and the picture quality. I can't see any colour cast whatsoever from both the CPL & ND filter. I think you would really need to pixel peep to see any sharpness difference, and even then I'm not sure there is.
Being able to attach the filters to both the UV filter and filter ring is really clever - I keep the UV on my 24-70 F4 and the filter thread ring on 16-35 F4 so it makes it even faster to clip on the filters no matter what lens I use.
Since the ND isn't variable, there's no dark X. And no vignetting at 16mm, unlike when I use my square filter set.
The downsides that I see at the moment:
- You can't replace the filter thread on its own, so if you break or lose it, you have to buy a new set. I contacted support but was asked to pay $16 for delivery of a new thread....
- The range of NDs isn't as big as a square filter system (yet) and again I'm not sure if you can buy them as singles or whether it's just part of these kits

I'm a complete beginner in the daily long exposure business. And I must say that I am very excited. For me certainly sufficient and an alternative to high priced angular filter systems. I only do the hobby moderately and that's why enough is enough. Think the pictures speak for themselves. Can fully recommend the ND filter!

For filming with DSLR. I think workmanship is good. No "X" pattern, I am satisfied

Excellent product! Better workmanship than my Tiffen and no nasty color cast.

Wow! What can I say. From the packaging to the filter, everything is such nice quality. I have it on my Sony and I didn't see any vignetting, or odd fading. I am really impressed.

Works really great. From dark to light. The wheel does not spin, so there is no "x" as with some other manufacturers.

Arrived in nice packaging. Easily attached to my lens and easy to use. I don't want to miss it anymore.
