Was undecided whether to buy this or another brand. Filters of the same quality would have cost at least twice as much. My only criticism would be that the filter holder could be a bit more robust.

Much better than the bulky Lee filter holders. Filter seems to be working well so far.

The filter has a good presentation, in a padded box. Comes in a leather case, with magnetic closure. It has an ingenious system to remove the filter from the case, using an adhesive tape. It complicates a bit then put it back in the case but the detail is appreciated. I did some initial tests around town. It reduces light pollution quite a bit, but don't expect miracles. However, it becomes easier to correct the dominants and play with the white balance a bit. I need to see how it performs in astrophotography, especially with the Milky Way.

You can't argue with the quality at this price point. A little tight for my Lee filters but the slits eased with use.

Not the best out there but for the price you can't go wrong. These filters are a lot cheaper than Lee etc but they're not too shabby in comparison and work well with less color casts than I thought - easy to correct in post-processing. Inexpensive items, why pay for a name when these are almost as good.

Excellent filter for landscapes, I use it with the HDR technique, I must say excellent, a bit complicated to assemble and transport, the filter is made of glass but it is worth all the money spent, for well thought out photos

This is a mid-to-high-end filter that's perfect for getting started with using filters. For the price it has, it goes without saying that it has color dominants, but much less than those of gelatin. It will look blue or green depending on the balance you have in camera, but that's easily corrected in editing or in the camera itself. For a photography enthusiast like me, this is a more than acceptable result.

Really surprised by the quality of the item and the accessories, I did not expect it. The ND filter, even when tried a few times, doesn't seem to have the odd dominance typical of the cheap windows that exist around. The filter holder is almost entirely made of aluminium, well finished, with the only plastic parts in contact with the sheet metal. The only comment I could make is the noise of the rubbing between the adapter rings and the filter holder itself. I'll have to look for something to avoid that. Recommended if you don't want to spend at least triple the price for a "famous" name

Excellent with little color shifts not really relevant in post-processing. I've found it a fraction in real world testing in stops and without much loss of sharpness, but I just picked Nick. Run your own tests to find the perfect settings. For the price, it's good enough for most photographers.
