52mm ND100000 Solar Filter, 16.6-Stop Solid Neutral Density Filter for DSLR Camera Nano-Xcel Series

EPIC FILTER CASE WITH LINED RUBBER CIRCULAR SHAPE, SAVE A TONE OF $$ WITH THIS ND FILTER

K & F Concept has been around for a long time as a company making phenomenal gear.

They make everything from entry-level gear to professional COMMERICAL GRADE regarding various tripods, accessories, and other products.

Also, I've been in Photography for over 20 years.

I own three cameras from Canon (R3 x2 R5), totaling $15,000, and over $20,000 in RF glass with multiple accessories to shoot podcasts for professional events, motorsports, fighting conferences, and sporting events.

Moab, Utah, is one of my favorite places to shoot in the US.

It's always a challenge shooting into the sun at 5000+ feet; this is the perfect lens filter for that application.

I've purchased other filers that cost five times the amount of this one, which performs better.

One of my favorite aspects about the filter is how light it is!

I had to do a double take and read the description to ensure this was glass and not plastic.

Another thing I fell in love with is the cases.

I've had lens cases from the TOP 10 manufacturers in the world, and nothing compares to a case like this,

No matter what lens you use, it fits perfectly; it has a rubber indentation mark in the center to ensure the filter is locked in.

They have everything from 82mm down to a 43 mm filter that can fit into the case and is semi-translucent.

Based on this new system, I will order 10 cases and use a label maker to label all my lenses.

It's hard to explain my excitement when I opened the package and saw this case because it's one of the biggest challenges of being a photographer, especially good at shooting in the desert or extreme weather environments.

This is a perfect way to organize my lenses when shooting landscape photography.

As far as cleaning the actual filter, it's relatively easy.

I use professional Lint-free ultrasoft wipes, found here on Amazon.

If you do not use these to clean lenses and filters, it's a game changer.

One of the biggest challenges is keeping lenses and filters clean and lint-free.

My three favorite parts are that it's 8K, waterproof, and has an anti-scratch coating.

I can't tell you how many times I've dropped a camera in the middle of nowhere, and the sphere of the current UV filter I have on there gets scratched up.

I'm looking forward to trying several high-end filters from K & F and becoming an ambassador for the company one day.

I can shoot more in Moab, Utah, and where I live. It is -10 out, and the last thing I want to do is freeze.

As a side note, the lowest I've ever shot is -10° -30 wind chill.

I'll be posting a 30-day supplemental review.

YOUTUBE STATEMENT ABOUT REVIEWS AND PHOTOS

I'm in the process of setting up my YouTube studio to create product reviews.

I plan to post a video review of this product on Amazon shortly.

Once the studio is ready, I will upload those videos on YouTube and share them here.

I use a Canon R3 camera with various RF lenses to capture professional product shots for my clients.

My experience includes commercial Photography at conferences, conventions, product shoots, podcasts, motorsports, PGA, MMA, and various events in Experiential Marketing across the USA and Canada.

The purpose of creating these video reviews is to help people understand the practical use of the product and how it compares to other products.

This filter does what it's advertised to do, reduce light by about 16.6 stops so you can safely take pictures of the Sun without damaging your sensor or your sight. I've included a quick test picture, sorry focus could be better. This is a good solar filter for a reasonable price.

Picked up this 100000ND ND Filter ahead of the upcoming solar eclipse. I tested it out a bit on a bright sunny day with the sun high in the sky. I was able to capture the sun with ease. It's going to take a few more times to get it dialed in as I've never shot with a 100000 ND filter before I ordered this. The build quality on this is top-notch. It comes in their new round filter case so I know it's safe and sound which is good because I know I'll be ready for that solar eclipse. K&F makes some of my favorite filters. I don't find much if any color shift. They are a high-quality filter at a good price. This is a niche filter so spending a good amount of money on a filter like this would be crazy. I think K&F filters allow you to be able to invest in a good filter without breaking the bank and still giving you an awesome look and high-quality images.

This filter is designed to make it so you can take pictures of solar activities! And it is DARK! It does the job well. The construction is a nice solid with a good weight. Screwes into my lens effortlessly. They did a great job putting it together. Get your hands on one now before they all disappear for the solar eclipse this year!

I have many K&F Concept filters and they perform very well. Excellent clarity, good with reflections, etc.

This filter is truly for a single purpose, taking incredible shots of the sun. 16.6 stops is fixed, so no other purpose. You can make some incredible shots with compositing by getting a clean shot of the sun with this filter and then a properly exposed shot of your subject.

This little filter is pretty awesome. Packaging solid and impressive. I put this on my Canon 5d Mark 3 with my 70 -200L and it's pretty legit. I will say I am going to have to brush up on my settings being I typically shoot sports but this filter is a must have if you are going to shoot solar shots.

Pros:
Solid Packaging
Quality Materials
Well Made

Cons:
None as of yet but till update if there are any

So got this for this Aprils main event.
Testing as you can see in the photo shows the Roy G Biv outline
Very pleased
On one note I have a 55mm and It was tight but had a tiny hindrance of wiggle, I dont think its enough
for light influx but something to note.

K&F always puts out very well-made and useful filters to use with your photography; this one is no exception.

The filter as always comes in one of their hard cases in order to protect it and it screws onto the lens very smoothly.

I tend not to try and drop any of their filters but on the occasion I have they have managed well with no damage I could visibly see.

This ND filter has 16.6 stops to capture the sun so that you can capture the beauty of the Sun whether that be directly or during an eclipse event. Having the ability to use this filter on a very long exposure for is amazing and allows you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required in order to capture it normally.

Using this filter with say a long telephoto lens such as the Canon 100-500 super telephoto lens would be amazing and the close-up photos of the sun would look great with such a long exposure time using this filter

I am always pleased with K&F filters and this one is no exception and look forward to using it in the future.

It screws on to any lens of the listed size and allows you to decrease the amount of light going into the camer in order to use slower shutter speeds for different effects. I did some short tests and it functions well and will be part of my shooting equipment when the conditions call for it.

I ordered this filter to fit my Sigma 150-600mm telephoto lens with the 95mm filter size. And this filter screwed on to it perfectly. It appears to be made of high quality materials and I am looking forward to the total solar eclipse in April. I have no complaints or issue. It is a quality filter.
