58mm Magnetic Lens Filter Kit GND8+ND8+ND64+ND1000+Magnetic Adapter Ring 5 in 1 Quick Swap System Nano-Xcel Series
SKU: SKU.1924
I think I prefer screw in type filters but if you are trying to switch them out quickly to find the right one for the task at hand I suppose the magnetic is pretty convenient. I used to use a cheap variable ND that had the dreaded X problem, so I switched to these so I don't have that problem anymore. These, along with other K&F Concepts products are high quality and these did not disappoint at all!

Camera filters are the way old-school photographers created the shots they want..even when they have access to post-production tools like Photoshop. Filters like these filters help us craft photos with the images we want to appear in final form.
But filters require constant screwing and unscrewing from lenses, which can damage the threads, get permanently stuck on lenses, and slow down the photo process. That's especially impactful when we need to react quickly to non-stationary objects.
Magnetic filters. Ah, they slide on and off quickly, speeding up the process, maybe even allowing shots with multiple filter combinations before moving on to the next shot.
This five pack in 77mm size allowed me to use it (with an adaptor) on a variety of cameras and lens sizes. Magnets hold the lenses tight, but also allow for fast removal.
The case offers sufficient protection for the glass filters and yes, you do need to screw on the adaptor so that the magnetic filters have a base to attach to.
All in all, a fine set of filters that make specialty photography easier

Great set of magnetic ND filters. The kit comes with a magnetic adapter ring that threads onto your lens and allows you use the magnetic ND filters with it. Worth noting that there is no magnetic lens cap included. THey did include a nice storage pouch though. Overall these work great, no complaints.

Lens filters are expensive. There's no getting around that and the 'marquee names' in the filter business can get *really* expensive. Fortunately, there's a number of companies that are making high quality, serviceable filters at a solid value price point. K&F is one of them--I have several of their camera products and have found them all to be well made, versatile and highly functional. This lens set--which I use on my Nikon Z-30--is no exception. Their performance might not be quite as impressive as the top of the line magnetic filters but they're perfect for every day use. You even get a nice little carrying pouch. Highly recommended!

The kit includes 5 different filters with different strengths (GND8, ND8, ND64, ND1000) and a magnetic filter adapter ring, making it easy to attach and remove the filters quickly. The filters are made with multi-coated glass to reduce reflection and improve image quality.

When I first unpacked it, I thought that the adapter ring that needs to be screwed onto the lens was missing, but then I noticed that it was packed in one of the lens cases together with the ND1000 filter.
The set comes complete with a very well-padded case that can be easily attached to a belt. For the small filters, the compartments are a bit too big, but that's no reason to deduct points.
I can't see any vignetting on the images due to the really very narrow filter ring. There are also no color shifts, so I'm really satisfied. In contrast to screw filters, these can actually be put on and taken off in seconds.
I therefore give a clear recommendation and a “thumbs up”

I have had good luck with K&F filters. They arent as good as the high end filters as far as glass qualities but for the price they do the job well. I have been shooting over 30 years now and have used a lot of different filters. These are plenty good enough for most shoots. If you are looking for the absolute best filters you can get then these may not be it, but for the other 99% of us I think you will be more than happy with these filters.
