The filter from K&F is a purchase recommendation due to the PL ratio. Have already used the filter several times and can say the photos are better than without!

This is my second filter holder that I have ordered, unfortunately the locking mechanism broke completely with the first one and that after a short period of use. I hope I have better luck with the second one.

All in all a good product. The quality of the glass filter (ND1000) looks good and is easy to slide into the holder. Everything is made of metal and makes a robust impression. Now for the cons or: The adapter rings only have one thread, which I can screw onto my lens (in my case 49mm). If I want to mount a polarizing filter, etc., I first have to put the screw-on filter and then the adapter on top of it. That's too cumbersome for me and I think it damages the screw-on filters and their threads after a while. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I would have liked the adapter ring to have two threads. There is space for it. So for understanding the following order is desired: 1. Adapter ring on the lens 2. Screw-on filter on the adapter ring What I also noticed is that the adapter ring sits very smoothly in the filter holder. It's almost like a steering wheel which you can easily turn several laps. A small rubber lip (on the adapter or on the holder) might help here. Of course I have to have some play, but that's too much for me. This set is going back for the time being until I have an alternative or it is rectified. Nevertheless good product

These filters are an absolute highlight, convincingly good quality, everything fits perfectly, everything is packed in high quality and protected and safely protected for transport in beautiful cases. The first tests are promising, but I currently don't have a suitable motif to test the full strength of the filters, but I'm absolutely confident that excellent and convincing pictures can be taken with them.

Basically there is nothing to complain about for the low price; still 1 star deduction, because you can't buy the adapter rings individually if one gets lost (which happened to me).

The set is the perfect introduction to the world of filter systems! If you want to try your hand at landscape photography or if you only do landscape photography "from time to time", you won't be able to avoid the set. It is solidly built and even a stay of several weeks on the beach could not harm the filter, the mount or the adapter rings.

am amazed by the quality, everything you need is included and great for the price. The only drawback is that the filter holder sits a little loosely on the adapter ring, but that's complaining at the highest level. The moss lip on the ring gets an extra plus point, so no light can enter from the side. The function is given, which would be nice to have an additional slot for a third filter that you can screw on if necessary

Scope of delivery: - filter holder for 100mm x 100mm filter - adapter ring 52mm - adapter ring 58mm - adapter ring 62mm - adapter ring 67mm - adapter ring 72mm - adapter ring 77mm - adapter ring 82mm - padded cardboard box for filter holder The set makes a very valuable impression overall. The adapter rings are made of black anodized aluminum - they are well made, not sharp-edged and the thread can be easily screwed onto lenses. Apart from the filter inserts, which are made of plastic, the filter holder is also made of black anodized aluminum. Here, too, the processing is excellent. Perhaps the quality of the plastic inserts could be a tick better, but that's already whining at the highest level. The inserts fit all 100mm x 100mm filters with a thickness of 1mm - 2mm. packaging was impeccable; Adapters are individually wrapped; Filter holder is in a nice padded cardboard box. Full points and recommendation for a perfect rectangular filter system at a significantly lower price than some other manufacturers.

bought the gradient filter because it was recommended to me by friends. After a few weeks of use I can say that I am more than satisfied with it. When taking photos, it is necessary to darken the sky (e.g. at sunrise or sunset) in order not to get a burned-out sky or too dark a foreground. This is where the filter shows its strengths. The filter can be positioned very easily in the appropriate holder without the risk of it slipping out. This gives you beautiful photos even with long exposures. To expand, I will add more filters of this brand later. I can make a clear purchase recommendation!

The image quality is very good - no discoloration. However, depending on the diameter of the lens, the rectangular filter is quite tight and can let in stray light (above and below). I will soon only buy 100x150mm filters, because I'm on the safe side.
