Perfect camera bag...everything I needed had its own place. Well built, tough and very durable so all my gear was protected from shot to shot when traveling. The laptop compartment is discreet but very secure — fits my 16-inch MacBook Pro perfectly. Definitely worth the 5 stars

I spent a long time buying a filter because on the one hand I didn't know if I needed something like this and on the other hand because I had already tested a 0815 filter with miserable results and the costs for such a part are not insignificant. The question now was whether I should get several filters or a variable filter. In view of the price, the question ultimately became irrelevant. The first tests were able to dispel concerns that the image quality suffers, as with the filter mentioned at the beginning. The images are slightly blurry, but really only marginally. The weakest position extends the exposure time by a little more than 2. In my experiment (Nikon D7200, Sigma 18-35, K&F variable ND filter 77mm ND2-ND400 with adapter ring) I set the aperture to 2 in sunshine. 8 raised to expose well at 1/8000 without a filter. With the filter screwed on in the "MIN" position, the shutter speed went up to 1/3200. I turned the filter from mark to mark and came up with the following shutter speeds calculated by the camera: 1/3200, 1/3200, 1/2500, 1/2500, 1/2000, 1/1250, 1/800, 1/400, 1/125, 1/20(X-Cross, but underexposed). As you can see, hardly anything happens at first and the markings also do not allow any ND value order to be determined, which according to the logic of the first point is 2, the second 4 and the third 8.... So it's time to try it out. In the "MAX" position (1/20) the images are unusable because of the X-Cross, but this is really only the case in the absolute max position, and between the penultimate with 1/125 and Max intermediate positions are also possible where I got useful up to 1/30. So a usable ND value of 266 is calculated. This value is now completely sufficient for filming, because who says that I can't set the shutter speed higher than 1/60, which was the rule of thumb in the early days of analogue filming. Enough theory, I think the filter is an absolutely good investment.
Unscrewing is completely problem-free and if there was a color cast, it was due to the camera (Nikon D7200).
I've uploaded a few pics:
1.) 100% topless bottom view with filter at 5th position (1/2000)
2.) MIN - position
3.) Last usable position
4.) Filter to with X-Cross where the camera with the exposure of my camera (Nikon D7200) failed and I had to raise 2 values ​​in post-processing to be able to recognize something.

I really like that I'm able to manipulate this tri-pod in multiple ways to give me the shot that I want. One thing I will say is that I don't like the camera mount since it does make me feel unsafe. Thankfully it's easily replaceable.
