77mm Magnetic Black Mist Filter 1/4 Nano-Xcel Series - HD Multi-layer Coated, Waterproof/Scratch-Resistant/ Anti-Reflection
SKU: SKU.1823
Please note that a 1/4 diffusion filter is a fairly strong diffuser, so make sure that you want that level of softening for your shots.
If so, this is a great option at this price point. The build quality feels solid, and I did not see any flaws in the optics. The magnetic attachment between the ring (which screws in as normal), the filter, and the lens cap works surprisingly well. I wish this were universal, although if your camera takes a lot of abuse I would still go with the traditional screw-in filters. A good smack will dislodge everything.

I normally use 1/8 strength diffusion filters which just lowers the contrast a bit and adds some bloom to the highlights. I was shooting a project where I wanted a bit more of a dreamy look to it so I wanted to try this as it should be just a bit strong than a 1/8th strength but not make my footage look too dreamy looking. It did indeed do just that. I noticed so real color cast with this filter. I got stronger bloom in the highlights and just gave my footage a softer more film like look.
Just be sure you want a stronger effect that a 1/4 filter can give you. If it's too strong K&F does make a 1/8 strength black diffusion filter that is excellent.
The magnetic system works very well. I wish all filters used this type of easy to use quick release system.

As someone who is heavy into video production I am extremely familiar with diffusion filters. I have used them on various projects for quite a while now. What makes this filter from K&F Concept so special besides the awesome look is the magnetic filter system. Having recently purchased a few more different magnetic filters this concept has quickly grown on me and I have almost switched all the way over.
The Diffusion filter does exactly what it should do, no more or less. The filter gives tons more character to your digital images from your DSLR. The magic of the filter is that it causes the highlights (especially light sources) to quite literally glow. The effect adds a dreamy look of halation to the highlights, a common look of feature film styles. I have included a screengrab of a music video I shot using the filter.
In the box you get the diffusion filter, an adapter ring and the lens cap. All of these items are magnetic and snap right into each other. You simply screw the adapter ring into your lens thread and then you just snap the diffusion filter on within seconds you have the dreamy look you have been waiting for.
