Very easy to set up and use. The magnetic rings fit very well. Picture quality is excellent for the price, although the polarizer and ND filters have a slight hint of a tint on the warm side (which can be very easily adjusted post shoot).One item this package should add is a magnetic lens cap to provide better protection to the filters during transit.

Delighted with my 55mm magnetic filter kit. It consists of 4 components, an adapter, a UV filter, a polarizer filter and a ND1000 filter. Both the polarizer and the UV filter are threaded, so they can be screwed on the front of the lens, but they also have a magnetized part, so the rest of the filters can be magnetically attached to them. I have several types of filters, threaded, square and these. Without a doubt, the magnetic ones are my favourite filters, I am very happy with them as they are very comfortable to use, especially for that reason, for the comfort of use. It is very easy to put on and take off any of the filters. You leave the UV or the adapter and it's instantaneous to put on or take off any of the others. I always use the UV, which also has a thread on the outside so I can put the cap on, the thread is fine, but the cap stays on and doesn't fall off. This way, I always have the camera ready to attach any of the other filters quickly and easily.

Many voices will say, such cheap filters simply can't reach the quality of a brand filter and also I was someone who would have affirmed this immediately until now, so convinced was I of my B&W, Rodenstock, Haida and Co. filters. But now the surprise: the K&F filters do not show any conspicuities. No unnatural colour shifts, no clear loss of sharpness, hardly any flare or ghosting, simply nothing where I would say at first glance that it would be a reason for exclusion. And I think this fact has opened my eyes.

I am a photographer and I love adding accessories to my kit. One piece of the ‘kit’ that has been elusive to me is functional, easy-to-use lens filters. I have a great set of variable ND filters, but the one thing I keep struggling with is getting them lined up exactly right in order to screw them into the lens. K&F Concept, a surprising, budget-friendly accessory manufacturer has a really cool set of magnetic lens filters. The set comes with a soft-sided, waterproof carrying case, adapter ring, MCUV filter, CPL filter, and ND1000 filter. The idea behind this set is that you screw on one adapter, leave it on the lens, and then pop the filters on and off as you need them. You don't waste any time while shooting trying to get the filters lined up just right. I think this is a great filter system. The filters are well-made and high-quality.

I like how they are easy to use and saves me time and frustration from having to switch lenses.I do wish that I could use my K&F 150x100 square filter holder with this kit.It’s unfortunate that K&F did not create this kit with the thought of using it with the square filter kit though.I do use a UV and CPL circular filter with my square filter system at times and not to be able to connect my K&F 82mm filter holder ring with this is a bummer.I’m surprised it doesn’t work with it or that it’s not able to screw onto the magnet filters in this kit.K&F please fix that in the future.

I am very pleased with this system and the quality of the filter lenses. It is wonderful for very quick changing of filters. Unfortunately I accidentally lost the ND filter the first time I went out and did not realise it until I was back home. My friend had zipped the bag they come in, and I, thinking it was still open and more concentrated on trying the one on the camera. unzipped it. So during my wanderings, the ND fell out. I did eventually manage to replace it, and received a magnetic lens protective cover as part of the order. I am made up now. I do recommend this system and it has the filters that I use, perfect.

My circular filter kit for each lens size includes a protective UV, a CPL and ND 10 and 6 stop. The K&F kits contain all but the 6 stop. The 6 stop can be ordered separately, though at this time only from the manufacturer's website.For any given size kit, the K&F Concept magnetic kit costs far far less than would top line individual threaded filters from other manufacturers (Breakthrough Photography, B+W, Hoya HD3, etc.). Yet the optical qualities of these K&F have been tested and are equal to the best. My own experience is that the K&F coatings are also just as effective at repelling water droplets as are my most expensive filters.Having used K&F Concept magnetic filters in two sizes for a few months I am loving the speed of filter changes and the absence of thread jamming when I stack an ND on a CPL.My only criticism is the lack of knurling on the front edge of the CPL frame. Magnetic CPL filters do not need or have a two piece construction. The entire filter is rotated in its magnetic attachment, which is fine but remains a two-finger grasping maneuver. To rotate the CPL you'll need to temporarily remove the lens hood. Maybe had K&F added knurling to the from edge a fingertip would suffice, but there is more friction opposing rotation than in a well made two piece threaded CPL. Off course you could attached your old threaded CPL to the lens, screw the open ring magnetic adapter onto the CPL, then add your NDs magnetically. You'd risk jamming the adapter ring to the front threads of your old CPL. I'm not going to do this.The protective UV is only meant to be attached directly to the lens threads. It is a lens protector. It does not magnetically attach atop the other filters or the open adapter ring. You are give two threaded adapters, one is just an open magnetized frame. The other has the protective glass. The CPL or ND can be clicked onto this protective filter, but not the other way around. My advice is to use the protective UV when facing blowing sand or salt laden ocean mist (and when shooting from a Russian reindeer sleigh where showered by flying feces).The included pouch is well made and easy to use. If you buy kits in multiple sizes you can even combine them into one pouch by storing the filters magnetically stacked and assigning each compartment of one pouch to a different diameter.
