Great for the price, does what I'm supposed to do.
Haven't tried this new one yet but I'm assuming it's the same as my 58mm I bought a few years ago. Great quality and I really like the packaging with the little tin to protect it when not in use. Also included is a handy little lens cloth. I only ever carry a 6-stop nd as I think it's a great middle ground for long exposures. By matching this to your lens and stopping down the aperture, you can always get the exposure you want, especially at sunrise or sunset. If you are shooting at noon, 10 stops may be preferable. Image quality is great and less color cast than many other so-called professional options on the market.

I primarily use it for video recordings and long exposure photos. I can fully recommend the ND filter for both areas of application.
Needed a variable density filter for my Sony RX0II so decided to try the Urth filters. All of my other filters over the years have been B+W which cost many times that.
I have to say that I am very satisfied with everything about K&F, from the environmentally friendly, plastic-free packaging to the tidy storage jar. The filter itself uses high quality glass and feels well developed and smooth. I still haven't used it enough to comment on the optical quality, but from my first impressions I'm confident it won't disappoint. Would definitely buy again.

The filters themselves are very comfortable to hold and are of really high quality. Not cheap plastic junk in my opinion. A practical bag is also included, in which the filters can be safely stowed away. I would say this is a viable set if you enjoy long exposure.

The filter looks good!
Impressive ! From the great eco-friendly recycled cardboard outer packaging and the protection offered by the bolted metal container, it can scream "quality". The actual filter is well designed and fits perfectly and the German 6 stop glass is thicker than many other similar filters, most of which are much more expensive. Haven't had a proper chance to try it out on my camera yet to create a few ICM images, which is why I bought it over slot-in filter types.

In terms of value for money, these are cheaper than other filters, but as I haven't tried these I can't comment on the quality.
Based on my past experience with ND and polarizer filters (some cheap, some a bit more expensive), I don't think there's a "massive" difference between brands unless you're doing some really critical work. As an amateur just having a bit of fun with photography, I don't need this critical quality.

Looking at the world through a viewfinder and capturing that one, irretrievable moment has fascinated me for many years. A photo can serve as documentation or be completely alienated artistically, in between lies the creative bandwidth of the photographer. Even if you mainly come across smartphones that take photos these days, they still exist, the tried and tested interchangeable lenses, whose creative uses and optical quality are still clearly superior.
The application of the filter on the lens is based on a magnetic connection between the adapter ring, which is screwed into the filter thread of the lens, and the actual filter. Up to now I only knew that the existing filter always had to be unscrewed and then the new one had to be screwed in. The magnetic principle is of course faster and the lens thread does not suffer from such high mechanical stress.
All in all, the set is neat and the quality of the filters and accessories is perfectly fine. It remains a set for special applications with special accessories and nothing for the broad, photographic mass. There are 5 stars from me.

The product is of excellent build quality. It works perfectly. I really like the convenience of this magnetic filter system. Unlike screw filters, these filters accept a magnet system. It comes with an ND filter, a magnetic adapter ring, a pouch. This set ideals for photographers and videographers.

The set comes in a bag.
The filters are well made, the filter glass is immaculate and the magnetic ring is clean. The 3 filters can be changed quickly thanks to a 77mm magnetic ring, the ring can also be easily combined with an adapter so that the filters can be mounted on the lens.
The optical performance of the filters is good and there is nothing to complain about, the ND filter is essential for photography and is therefore almost always mounted on my camera.

The filters are of high quality and come well protected in a practical bag that can be attached to the belt with the loop, but also to the strap of a photo backpack or similar.
In my opinion, the price/performance ratio is absolutely fair, comparable quality is difficult to find even cheaper.
All in all a good basic equipment for Long Exposure.

Rated 77mm Magnet Lens Filter Set
The lens filters come in a nice little pouch.
The magnetic adapter ring idea is pretty clever. Simply attach the ring and put the filters on.
As far as I can tell, I think the filters are of very good quality and also properly processed.
