Fine Black Diffusion Filter
I have worked with K&F Concept filters in the past and generally had good experiences with them. They're good, mid-range quality filters at (usually) a budget price. I haven't worked with any black diffusion filters prior to this one so I have no basis against which to compare, but so far it seems to work as designed and seems to be made very well.

In a nutshell, this type of filter softens light a bit, causing some gentle halos around light sources, without impacting image sharpness or detail. Where I have seen the most noticeable impact is in images where there otherwise would be a lot of shadows and contrast; instead of stark contrast and strong shadows, the filter has the effect of brightening up the shadows somewhat and creating smoother color gradients. Sure, this can be done in software after the fact, but it is a lot easier to do this at the time the image is taken and it certainly is a lot less work.

The filter is very easy to install. This is my first magnetic filter and it is as easy to attach to my camera as I could have hoped. The threaded ring attaches to the lens in the same manner as a step ring or another filter, and the filter itself just snaps securely into place due to the magnetics. Removing the filter is just as simple, especially if you choose to leave the magnetic ring in place on the lens.

The assembly seems to be well made. I have had filters in the past that have been poorly constructed and rattle in the frames when shaken, or have been mildly blemished, or just felt cheap. This filter has none of those issues and appears to be well made.

This is a nice black diffusion filter. It's easy to install and use, and it just works. I will be using it more in the coming weeks.

It doesn't hold no matter what you tighten ◉‿◉ UPD
The media could not be loaded.


















 1/27/23 update, so It wasn’t til after some time of having it did I realize there was more then one adjustment to tighten, it does stay still now! However quality still feels fragile.And mounting an iPad on it is like stretching a rubber band.I will be returning this ಠ‿ಠ it's unstable, I've tightened everything I could and it's dangerous for my iPad... PLUS the remote freezes my camera when I tried to use it in video mode.Terribly sad it can't workout.

Great value
We’ve had this monitor for 2 days and so far, it’s great! The picture is clear in both day and night modes, it’s sensitive to sound but not overly so. We live in a 2 bedroom apartment, and I haven’t had any signal issues. I do wish you could tilt down a few degrees more, we haven’t had a chance to install the camera on the wall above our crib yet, and it took a bit of work to figure out a placement. Exactly what we needed at a reasonable price.

The only problem was the hook that would randomly
This was compatible with my Cannon camera, the quality it decent. The only reason I didn’t like this was because the hook of where the flash would hook into the body would move slightly every now and then so the flash won’t work on those vidios. When jt does that it doesn’t make a sound or a big move so you won’t notice it until you go back to check the pictures and you’ll then find out that they darker or completely black because the flash had slightly slipped off.

It works great!
I bought this camera for my honeymoon to Hawaii. By using the special casing that comes with it, we were able to take great pictures of fishes and turtles underwater while we were snorkeling. The interface can be a bit confusing due to the limited number of buttons, but you get used to it after playing around with it for a bit. Considering the price though, I think it was a really good buy. It also gave me peace of mind while out on boats, as I didn't have to risk dropping my phone in the ocean while taking pictures of wildlife.

Amazing quality
We are transitioning our toddler to his own room and were in need of a high quality video camera. I’m so happy I found this one. The image is so clear on my iPhone and I love that the audio keeps playing even when I’m not on the app. It is versatile and looks modern in our nursery. We are using a floor bed so the “crossing detection” feature is very handy and the app notifies me when our little one gets off his mattress. I am very impressed!

Great Gift for your kids
The camera is really good quality, way better than I expected. It comes with all of the accessories, including a hanger, the silicone case, and some more stuff. Even I would be glad to receive this kind of gift. the only thing is that they messed up the colors. I wanted to get a blue one for my brother, but I got a pink one. I don't classify pink as the only girl color, but now I also have to explain it to my five-year-old brother. So, it's still okay. Otherwise, definitely recommended.

Solid budget NVGs for hunting or camping or airsof
Solid budget NVGs for hunting or camping or airsoft! These are pretty hefty and go over both eyes, so don't expect to use them on a helmet or anything -- these are for hand-holding.I'd say the image quality and brightness is about equivalent to a Gen 1.5-2 NVG - and at 1/4 the price. This uses an IR digital camera sensor with an IR illuminator. Battery life is exaggerated a bit, so I'd pick up some rechargeables if you plan on using this a lot.Battery life is about half of what is advertised, and this doesn't want to work reliably in the cold.

So far, exceeds expectations.
Pro photographer, been wanting a sling style for some time. The low price and plastic parts had me nervous, but it's very well built. Been using on outdoor product shoots for hours at a time and it's comfortable. The padded shoulder part does slide down sometimes, but I imagine that has much to do with heavy winter coats. Once wedding season starts, I'm confident to put an expensive camera on this now and it probably won't slip as much on a suit. Good deal, good product
