55mm Variable ND Filter (1-5 Stop) and CPL Filter 2 in 1 for Camera Filter Lens Nano-Klear Series
SKU: KF01.2588V1
This Camera Filter helps me nail the dark, moody photos I’m always chasing. It adds that perfect touch of depth and atmosphere with minimal effort, turning otherwise mundane shots into something much more dramatic. If I’m looking for a quick way to enhance those shadowy vibes without fiddling too much with settings, this filter does the job.
That said, I could achieve pretty much the same effect by tweaking the camera settings directly, making the filter feel a little redundant. It’s nice to have for convenience, but it’s not exactly a game-changer for anyone already comfortable with manual adjustments.

I don't do a ton of video work but I really want to. This includes both a circular polarizer to cut down on reflections (perfect for ensuring that folks with glasses don't have bright reflections. A variable ND filter to cut down on bright scenes and ensure that you can get optimal shutter angle.
The build quality on this is fantastic and the quick throw levers on either side allow you to make adjustments to the filter quickly and precisely without having to risk smudges on the front of the filters.

This is a great variable ND filter from one of the most trusted camera accessory brands, so my expectations were met completely.
The clarity is top-notch, without any visible color or image distortion, and it doesn't suffer from the X Cross image distortion that many low priced Variable ND filters exhibit.
The filter is easy to adjust, thanks to the easy access handles on the sides.
One word of advice. If you have multiple lenses with different diameters, I suggest you order one at the highest lens size you'll use, then get inexpensive adapters to put the larger filter on your smaller lenses. You need to know that you should not try to adapt your larger lenses to use smaller filters.
The bottom line is that you can easily put larger filters on smaller lenses but putting smaller filters on larger lenses will cut off part of your images.

I am using this on my standard lens as well as on my big zoom lens. It fits both and is easy to screw on, and afterward easy to switch on and off as the photo needs. Good product at a good price!

This lens filter combines a variable ND filter and CPL filter in a single unit that's easy to adjust. These handles make it super easy and quick to adjust, as well as serve as a visual indicator of the amount of ND applied. One issue I have is that the two handles are the same color which can cause confusion between the variable ND and CPL. They should have used a different color for each.
There are two handles that stick out to give you control of the Variable ND and CPL filters.
The lens filter is well made and sturdy.
There's very subtle color cast and very subtle darker corners in the highest ND settings. These are fairly small differences and likely something we can compensate with camera settings.
Overall this filter delivers exceptional value for the price.

The nubs make it so much easier to adjust without accidentally getting fingerprints on it. The filter feels like consistent quality you can expect from K&F

Having just returned to my old hobby of photography, I realized that I needed to try out the use of filters. Years ago, they did not have much to select from and they were very expensive.
I was very impressed with this being a combination of a polarizing filter and variable ND filter which eliminates the need to stack two separate filters. I also found it very convenient to have those extensions on the rings, making it so much more enjoyable to make any adjustments. A definite item to include in your collection of filters.

Great VND/CPL filter that comes with a basic plastic case and two cleaning cloths in the box. The orange handles control the VND amount, and the knurled grips on the sides of the filter (middle layer) control the direction of the CPL filter. Vignetting isn't too bad of an issue and I didn't see any of the X pattern you get other VND filters at the darkest setting. Overall a great product with lots of uses. Just note that the handles on the VND filter will prevent it from being used with a lens hood.

I keep this mounted to my anamorphic so I can keep it wide open when I want to. Really well made, k&f delivers yet again 剌

The combination of a variable Neutral Density and Circular Polarizing filter is far more than a novelty. In terms of controlling light and enhancing your image, the combo is very powerful.
It takes a little bit of practice to manipulate the combined filters. There are two little levers. One, when turned counter-clockwise, controls the polarizing filter. The other lever turns clockwise and controls the Neutral Density filter. It takes a degree of dexterity to easily manipulate these little levers. I'm old and suffer from arthritis, so it's more difficult for me.
Basically, I've just been playing with these. The real test will come when I can get to the lake with its waves and the sky to play with. With this tool, that's an exciting prospect.
