The original filter was faulty with dust and lint between the 2 pieces of glass. I received excellent customer service from the seller and the issue was dealt with very professionally.

In order to be able to capture colors more realistically and in more detail, you have to increase the shutter speed a bit without overexposing the images.
With the K&F Concept ND filter, the brightness can be reduced very easily and in a very short time.
The 58 mm version is ideal for screwing onto Canon lenses. It is a pity, however, that the cap for the lens no longer really fits.
At the slightest darkening, the adjustment lever is at the bottom right and is pushed upwards, at the highest darkening, it points right up, which is very easy for me as a right-handed person to use.
I think the results speak for themselves. I'm still a long way from being a professional, but it allows you to capture and capture really intense colors. For almost beginners like me, who likes to try out everything possible, the filter is great to use and absolutely great for sunsets here on the Baltic Sea beach (but of course also where there is no beach).
The included case for the filter rounds off the package really nicely. It is therefore well protected whenever it is not mounted on the lens and with the pull strap, it is also elegant and easy to unpack from the case. The leather case has a hidden magnetic closure, so the filter will definitely not fall out of the case unintentionally.
Overall, a great filter that, with its results, makes you want to move on to the next, stronger levels.

The K&F Concept Nano-X True Color Variable ND Filter arrived quickly.
It is neatly packaged in a stylish pencil case that protects the filter well.
I would also like the filter name to be on the pencil case so that the person I am looking for is available more quickly.
The filter itself is properly worked.
It fits my wide angle lens perfectly. With the right adapter rings, even on smaller lenses.
The settings can be freely adjusted using the small red handle on the edge.
Unfortunately, the weather is rather dark and grey at the moment and the filter outside hasn't really been used yet.
Nevertheless, I am very satisfied with the filter and am looking forward to the next sunny day.

I love these variable ND filters. Although they have clear optical disadvantages compared to fixed ND filters, the advantage lies in their literal variability.
With “fixed” ND filters, you always have to bring a whole set of filters with you.
That costs space, weight and is, of course, more expensive. Switching or making the right selection on site is also complex.
With a variable filter, you don't have these problems. Simply screw on one filter, turn it until you have the desired darkening, and you're done.
You have to buy this advantage with slight losses in imaging performance.
Since such filters in principle “only” move two polarizing filters in opposite directions, there are slight inaccuracies in the evenness of the darkening.
However, this can be corrected relatively easily in post-processing.
Otherwise, there are no weaknesses, not in any case that I could identify them - as a layman.
For me, the benefits and ease of use clearly outweigh this.
Thanks to the “handle”, it is actually very easy to use. The resistance is also right, so that the desired value is not so easy to adjust by itself.
Everything is fine here, even the price is right when you look at comparable products.
I give it five stars!

I am not bragging to everyone that I got this ND filter - I am celebrating. This has by far the most exquisite packaging, the most classy case within the box - full leather, with magnet closure, and a stunning color choice on everything - including the eye-catching knob/catch that assists the turn. Also the filter comes to a complete stop so that you don't risk the "x" twist of the filter. Phenomenal design. Love this. Can't wait to put it to good use!

I've been using K&F products for my photos for some time now. I particularly like all the filters. This ND filter is also well made and does exactly what it should. It was easy to attach to my Canon RF 24-70 2.8. The 2-32 range is particularly suitable for everyday use. Even if the filter isn't on the lens, I can easily carry it around with me thanks to the high-quality bag.
In my opinion, this is a very well thought-out, high-quality product. The filter is worth the money. That's why I like to give 5 stars and recommend buying.

This is definitely a step up improvement in filters for me, and I love what this filter can do. It only has 5 stops, but seems to handle most anything I need to photograph on my outings. A trusted brand that doesn’t disappoint. The lens and housing is gorgeous and this comes with a first rate leather magnetic case. Five stars!

The filter comes very well packaged in a nice magnetic closure box. The actual storage takes place in a high-quality leather case with an “ejection tape” so that you don't have to tap your fingers into the filter disc when removing it.
The filter and its mechanism are manufactured to a high quality, meaning that the filter thread can be easily screwed in without rubbing noises and frequent attempts to fix it and, after tightening, can be removed again with moderate force, provided that the inner thread of the lens is not damaged.
The special feature of this (ND) filter, however, is of course the ability to infinitely adjust the filter degree/strength using the screw-on brass handles, which also works very smoothly and impressively! For example, changing the filter is largely unnecessary, just a grip on the rotating ring is enough and you continue to dim or flash on accordingly. The range in which the filter effect can be changed is enormous - this saves a few filters and allows fine and easy adjustment until the desired effect is achieved!
Even though it doesn't quite come close to the Pro series, you still get a very high-quality filter and, with the variability offered, a very fair offer!

I had been using a cheap variable ND filter for years and when I recently upgraded to this the difference was immediately obvious. This ND filter does an excellent job not making dark spots around the edges of your video. I am using this on my Canon M50.
