K&F Concept 2 in 1 True Color 52mm Polarizer Filter and Adjustable Neutral Density Filter Slim ND2-ND32 MRC for Camera Lens NO X Spot with Case for Video Photography

I have had my eye on this for months if not years and now I have it. I'm glad I finally got it as it's simple yet multi purpose. I got this because I had bought another type where they connected magnetically. However it fell off after an event and I didn't realize it until I was at home packing for another event weeks later... So now I have this I feel secure with any bumps that happen it will still be secure and no need to stop and change the lens type. Just a quick twist and good to go. It feels sturdy and not like cheap plastic and further more the unwanted elements like glares and overcast are no longer an issue. So I definitely recommend this.

Accurate color reproduction, allows me to thread on a lens hood. The 67mm uses a 72mm lens hood to protect from rain and hits to filter to protect from scratches. The CPL filter allows better contrast and color pop when used outside than can otherwise be obtained. Only negative for me, no hard stops to know the VND settings which is to be expected in this price range.

thanks

Normalmente los productos de K & F suelen representar un ejemplo de buen producto a buen precio, pero en este caso se han pasado de nivel, y aun manteniendo un buen precio, el resultado es un producto extraordinario.En este modelo, la reproducción cromática es excelente, evitando el efecto de amarilleamiento de otros filtros similares. Ademas, su marco tiene un sistema de autobloqueo que impide la aparición del patrón en forma de "X" cuando se utilizan valores altos de densidad neutra. Destaca por su ausencia de dominantes de color, incluso en los ajustes más oscuros de densidad neutra.Fabricado con vidrio óptico japonés de primera calidad y con 28 capas de nanorrevestimiento en ambos lados, reduce de manera efectiva los reflejos y las luces parásitas. Además, su tratamiento hidrofóbico, antiarañazos y antivaho garantiza una imagen nítida y libre de imperfecciones. A diferencia de otros modelos, permite rotar el polarizador de manera independiente al ajuste de densidad neutra, ofreciendo un control total sobre la imagen.

K&F are renowned for producing high quality photographic filters and the True Color variable ND (“VND”) with a strength of 2 – 32 (i.e. 1 – 5 stops) filter is no different.I ordered the K&F VND for video work rather than stills photography where having the 1 – 5 stops is perfect for keeping the 180 degree shutter rule when I am out shooting run and gun style. The K&F VND filter negates the need to having to mess around with having to swop out several filters which is ideal for my shooting style.The build quality of the K&F VND is superb. It is made from top quality materials that are well machined and nicely finished. The rotating mechanism is tight enough to stay in place and avoid being moved by accidental knocks but not so tight it is difficult to rotate. In addition, the rotating mechanism is really smooth, which is needed for neat transitions.The K&F VND has a protruding tab, rather than the conventional serrated edges, which makes adjusting this filter super quick and easy. This tab means I can focus on the screen and what I am doing rather than fumbling around trying to change the setting.In my experience all filters affect the image quality to some degree and the K&F VND is no different. The reduction in image quality is minimal when using the K&F VND for video work and it is barely noticeable, even when using the filter at the strongest 5 stop setting. One thing I will say about the K&F VND is that there are no colour casts, at any setting, so the “True color” in the product description is accurate.At £71.99 (at the time of review) the K&F True Color VND filter isn’t cheap, and is actually priced at the higher end of the market. This is to be expected and I think it is always worth to dig a bit deeper for quality filters to maintain the best image quality rather than use cheaper and inferior filters that are going to affect the image quality and potentially render the footage unusable. Using the K&F VND I can shoot with the confidence the image quality of my footage is going to be virtually as good as using no filters at all.Overall, the K&F True Color VND is an excellent filter and one I highly recommend for capturing video footage. It is tough and durable. It is well made and has a smooth action. The protruding tab makes changing settings quick, efficient and fuss free. Okay, it’s on the expensive side but it is definitely worth the extra and very good value for money.Disclaimer: I am privileged enough to be part of the Amazon Vine program and as such I have the opportunity request products that I would find useful/potentially buy to road test in exchange for an honest review.
