First variable ND filter purchased (all others I have had have been static) and what a difference it makes!
So easy to move around, and not having to carry more than one per lens is a real space-saver in the bag!
I've experienced no false colour or the infamous X on any images (although I don't use this all the way closed!)
Comparing it to a friends premium ND (I won't mention the brand), I could not see a difference at all in image quality. However, the premium ND was a bit stiffer to move around, so it felt like it would stay exactly where left. The K&F one does feel like it may loosen up over time, although this hasn't happened yet a few months in!

I have been using a predecessor of this filter to record video outdoors for years. This one has gotten over it. Good construction, magnificent presentation in these leatherette bags that now bring perfect results.
The point of genius is put by the orange control (the brand's seal color) that makes it easy for us to change the intensity of the ND at any time.

There is no colour cast with this which I was very surprised with. Blue wise its very good but all these things are expensive. The easy to tun the filter due to the "handle" works well in the field but it stops you from connecting the lens hood. Now not that you need a hood but it good to have a hood to work as a protector and the end of the lens is a good parking spot for it for when not needed. I would certainly recommend this product.

I mainly use it for video with my Canon M50 and the 50mm 1.4 lens. The quality is nickel.

Very useful with a Sony RX10IV to fight against light rays that could spoil photos and videos. Small problem the adjustment is fluid, we would have liked an adjustment by notches. Another problem is that the orange lever prevents the installation of the original sun visor. But you have to choose between a dozen filters and a multi-filter and these two small drawbacks. This brand is always a guarantee of good quality.

Perfect for ICM photography. Easy to use no faffing with holders and sliding in expensive glass which usually ends up on the floor. I have two of these now one for each lens I use for ICM photography and I have recommended them to others. It's true you can't get your lens hood on with them but I don't need to when doing ICM. You can't get a lens hood on when using Lee Filters either so I don't see why that is a problem.
