I really wasn't sure of what to expect from this filter. I mean, I know what it should have done technically but I have been fooled before with poor quality results and not knowing this brand I was prepared to be let down but I certainly have not been. This filter provides a beautifully softening effect that does not so much outright blur but rather seems to maintain a decent focus while creating a very soft hint of haze. It is very delicate and is a really nice tool to have in a portrait photographer's arsenal. It also has a nice effect on candle and sharp points of lights, creating a softened hue or aura around the light source. It looks a little "dreamy", if that helps to paint the picture.
I used this filter with my primary Nikon portrait lens and I intend to continue shooting with it to learn more about it but to this point, it has been a rather exciting discovery.
I will say that, although secure enough, I do find that this filter does not fit my lense threads as precisely as I am more accustom to. Something seems off but they are not binding, so I will leave well enough alone.
I am very impressed with this filter and think it fairly priced.
Definitely recommended.

Technically, we've definitely got to a point where the cameras are so good that much of the magic has been lost. Diffusion seems like a great way to bring some of that flavor back into your creative work. Atrium and softer edges without the highlights blooming into a soft, warm mess.

Damned! This makes the highlights very fresh and soft! A great investment if you like that soft look!

"K&F concept 62mm black diffuser filter 1/1 black fog softlight diffuser lens filter" is very good, h is very suitable for my Nikon camera lens. This filter can have a good effect on portraits.

I'm really happy with the K&F Concept 62mm Black Diffusion 1 4 & 1 8 Lens Filter Kit. The filters are a great addition to my camera bag and have already come in handy. The mist cinematic effect filter is perfect for vlogging and portrait images, and the black diffusion filter helps to create a more cinematic look in my photos. The quality of the filters is great, and they're easy to use.

This filter works great for portraits. The filter softens the edges and details of the image without sacrificing image quality.

I love the look the 1/8 gives on lights. It gives them just enough glow to pop and soften. The 1/4 is a little too aggressive but will come in handy for certain shoots. The packaging is fantastic and again I'm super pleased with the look. Another great tool to have for photography. You should really have these with you, along with the basics like a CPL and ND filters. Great quality filters.

Nice filter. Definitely comes handy in certain situations. Great for sharp lenses especially with no character. This adds some mood to it. It’s nice to have, looks well made and o love that I can apply to a lens and still be able to use the lens cover over the filter when not in use. I use it on my Sony 18-105 f/4 and the sigma 18-35 f/1.8 and am quite happy with the result. In my images the last image is the one without the filter, hopefully you can get an idea what it does.

Great filter for portrait and street photography, it adds cinema graphic look to the photos.
