I was reading reviews for other ND filters and found this one for the price to work great for what i will be doing. The build quality is really nice, it has some weight to it so it feels strong, the glass is really clean and it works perfect, I got this for my 35mm 1.8 and it allows me to take pictures and shoot video in full daylight at a wide aperture of 1.8 with an even balance of blue in the sky to the greens in the grass. I was really impressed with the quality of this filter. I will be getting another one for my 50mm 1.8. I'm using it for mid day long exposures of waterfalls and cloud landscapes. Also this helps give a cinematic look for shooting video which looks really nice! I didn't see any noticeable loss of detail in images or video which is what i was worried about. I did NOT notice any kind of X or shadowing from this filter. It is probably from using a wide angle lens. I highly recommend this ND filter!

UPDATE: I was approached by a company representative and offered a replacement filter. I received it today and did a quick test. This filter seems waaaay better. It doesn't have any shadows in the corners or any black spots when shooting towards a light source. I haven't tried it out in the field yet, but it looks like it'll be alright. Either way, impressive customer service.
ORIGINAL: After reading all the reviews I decided to purchase this filter because my budget was tight. I used it on 24-105 f/4 L lens to take some photos at sunrise and sunset. It's absolutely terrible. There is a black shadow on the right side of the filter that gets stronger with each step. I wish I could return the filter but I've already threw away the packaging:( Will have to throw this filter away as it's completely unusable...

I have used numerous filters, from Cokin, to buying several for different sized lenses. And, I do a serious amount of light and strobe painting (do a you tube search, if you're curious). So, when I dropped my super expensive ND filter, I was crushed! Right up until I found this K&F Concept ND, which offers a "Variable Neutral Density". Imagine looking at purchasing an ND Filter for the Typical four hundred bucks (and, that is only for a single fixed ND number)? Oooor, grabbing this well constructed, high quality ND filter that you can adjust to your liking ON THE FLY! Still thinking...
Buy it Bonehead!

This filter is the bomb! I use it in broad daylight to slow down shutter for that cinematic look. My videos have been coming out nice as of lately. This is actually my second time purchasing this same filter for a different camera. Highly recommended for those who want to master their camera & shoot only in manual...

I love K&F ND Filters. I don't know if I will ever buy filters from another brand again. This is the third K&F ND Filter I have purchased and I have been extremely happy with all of them.
I have bought filters from extremely cheap to extremely expensive, and these are honestly my favorite ones I have ever used. They are high quality, easy to screw on and off, and have very smooth adjustments.

I didn't have the opportunity to try my new filter until last Saturday. Not only was I pleased when using it with my Nikon D5200 and 62mm Sigma Lens, but I hand-held it in front of the lens on my Sony HX90V while recording a sunset over the Oquirrah Mountains. Wow! The filter worked well on both cameras! No distortion at all. Luv It!

Conventional wisdom says never buy cheap ND filters! Always pay hundreds of dollars! Or you know, get this one (so far great for video in ridiculous sunlight - ISO 200 f/1.7 = crystal clear sky, not a pixel overexposed) and use the money you saved to buy another lens or other peripherals. Fits perfectly with nice, firm threads, the variable spins smoothly, no green hue or blotchy lines that I could see, even at 4k zoomed in, and comes in a cool protective case that fits like a glove in my bag.
I have a tripod and EF to 4/3 adapter from K&F Concepts, and these guys haven't disappointed yet. Quickly becoming one of my favorite companies.

This filter works for me perfectly and I am very satisfied with the results I have had while using it. It is noteworthy that the size of lens cap you need once this is on your lens will increase. I bought the 49mm and needed to increase my lens cap size to a 52mm to accommodate the larger thread size on the front. This wasnt a huge deal though as I already had a 52mm lens cap laying around. There is a size corresponding chart on the company website that will tell you what size lens cap you need depending on which size filter you buy. Hope this helps

The delivery and packaging times from Amazon were perfect as always. The filter comes with a carrying case. I've already taken a few pictures and can be satisfied, great for long exposures to create the silky effect. Vignetting phenomena are avoided.

Follow the instructions and look at your lens to make sure that you are getting the right size. This will not fit on your current lens if you have a UV filter on there already.
That being said, it works great for shooting in the middle of the day but needing to control the incoming light. I love this filter.
