67mm Variable ND Filter ND8-ND128 (3-7 Stop) HD Hydrophobic VND Filter MRC 28-Layer Nano-Xcel Series
SKU: KF01.1077
I have now also bought the 72mm version in the Lightning Deal and am equally satisfied with it. I now use the variable ND filters as “fast” filters for on the go. If I would like to expose even more professionally, I use my K&F Square Filters. These are also highly recommended!
The 72mm round filter shows similar good characteristics as its big 77mm brother. It has light colour engravings in the maximum range, but impresses with its consistently good image quality and workmanship.

The filter is very high-quality and comes with an extra sleeve. The filter is made of metal and glass. The two rings can be rotated against each other very smoothly.
For me the variable ND function works very well. Both discs are perfectly matched. I could not see any loss in image quality on my test images. The construction automatically results in a vignetting and sometimes a colour cast is created. However, nothing you could not quickly calculate with an image editing software!

Very good quality for the money. I use it for video and the result is very good. Ring is hight quality and solid. Comes in good case.

After extensive testing, I can absolutely recommend the filter. It shows no annoying vignetting, the glass is very well processed. The packaging of the filte
also comes nicely, the enclosed box is space-saving and is great for transport.
Due to the variability it can be used in almost any light ratio.

100% brand new and high quality. Tested with Fuji X-T2 and 56mm 1.2 and 50-140mm 2.8 - no loss of quality over the entire ND range, only at the last aperture stage this will easily diminate. Sharpness is preserved, no annoying X in the image. High-quality workmanship, turns very well and evenly.

I don't normally write reviews but this item brought me so much joy I had to. One of my best purchases ever. Went on a hike to a waterfall and was able to get fantastic photos in midday sunlight. I get to eliminate my half a dozen other ND filters because this single filter does all that and much much more.
One downside is it is too thick for my lens hood to fit over the filter. Doesn't matter. The convenience and performance vastly outweigh that downside.

I particularly like the fact that this filter is variable which makes it very practical while shooting at low light since you can lower the intensity without having to remove or change filters.

I have used a ton of affordable variable NDs and this is by far the best I've tried. At ND128 the X pattern is almost non existent where as in most filters it's very prominent.
Definitely ordering more for each lens.

The first thing that stands out is the nice packaging that it comes in. Definitely meant to keep the ND filter safe. I tried a few video clips and some photos with the filter attached to my Zeiss 24-70mm lens. The image quality was very good and the filter feels really substantial.
I'll post some images after uploading to my computer.

In use on the Sony 20mm F1.8G and does exactly what it's supposed to do. Use it for videos in the sun

These is my 2nd variable ND from K&F. The quality it's good as Tiffen and others manufacturers. Instead of have a lot of ND of different sizes it's better have a variable ND for my photography work and save same money.
The only CONS it's the protective case that came with the ND. It's nice but too big.
