43mm ND2-ND32 (1-5 Stop) Variable ND Filter and CPL Circular Polarizing Filter 2 in 1 for Camera Lens Nano-Xcel Series
SKU: KF01.2049
After reading and watching mixed reviews about this product online, I decided to give it a try and I'm very happy with it! I bought it to help me with my car photography and decided to save money and buy it to fit on my biggest lens, and then used step-up rings to fit it on the rest of my lenses. Just make sure you don't use it with lenses wider than 20mm, as you'll then have problems with a dark haze around your images that can be easily cut out with a gradient mask in Adobe Lightroom. Otherwise, I can highly recommend this 2 in 1 filter and for the price a piece of cake!

This is one of the best purchases I've made lately, and I have no hesitation in recommending it, especially for travel photographers who are committed to bringing as little camera gear as possible. Although sometimes it's better to wear less, but there are things I just can't live without. Filters are one of the accessories I often carry with me because they are indispensable for my landscape photography.
My first impression of the filters is that they arrive nicely and safely packaged. They are packed in a cardboard box and the filter itself is in a hard plastic cardboard box inside the box. Except for the circular polarizing filter, the frames of all filters are made of aluminum alloy (the polarizing filter is made of an ultra-stable magnesium alloy). In general, this filter is highly recommended.

The filter is supplied in a plastic carrying housing with high-quality foam for protection. The filter sits firmly in the housing, so you can be sure that it will not move after storage or be damaged during transport.
The filter itself feels of good build quality, with the metal frame holding the glass in place. I like the lever to adjust the stops, the action is smooth and does not move by itself. I would have preferred K&F to include a lens cap, just in case I wanted to leave the filter on the camera.

Very easy to use and produces great images. Being able to adjust exposure without removing and adding filters makes shooting so much faster. Image quality is great.

During the window test, when we set ND to the maximum value, I didn't notice X.

Bought for a Sigma Art Sony 24-70 and the Sony 28-135 (with Step Down), it's now permanently on my lenses. In addition, having an ND and a polarizer on the same filter is a really nice surprise, especially at this diameter. For video recording and keeping at 1/50 or 1/100 in broad daylight, this is the best.
A highly recommended essential.

The filter comes in a plastic carrying case with high quality foam to protect it. The filter is a snug fit within the case so you can be assured that once stowed it will not move or become damaged in transit.

I'm thrilled...I find the combination of ND and polarizing filters brilliant; the brand and this idea made me buy it. the polarizing filter works perfectly ... although caution is advised in the extreme position (shadows are placed somewhat unevenly across the image; the image should always be checked anyway). I find it a bit unfortunate (but probably just logical) that the polarization effect varies again when close the ND filter after adjusting the polarizing filter. So the order will have to be: First set the ND filter (at the little handles), then the polarizing filter (with the help of the lens wheel) - hoping that the polarizing effect is still clearly visible in the viewfinder despite the darkening... Well - I would buy again; especially for water photography, not too narrow, this filter serves two purposes,
