I got this filter for my Nikon D750 a few weeks ago. Being a photographer of 45+ years, and doing it professionally for about 30yrs. I was a little skeptical about these "Fader Nd Filters" because I have tried them in the past with very little success. However, I greatly admire Anthony Morganti (On YouTube) and enjoy his videos. He has one on You Tube now about this filter. I watched his video several times before I bought one for myself. I usually use a Cokin P System, but I wanted to carry just one filter with me instead of a whole system. (Older now)I can tell you this: "This is all that I hoped it to be"!!! I have tried it on many occasions in the last month, put it through several tests, and I can tell you that Anthony was right. This filter is all that the Manufacture claims it to be.(No X. Well built, 6 true stops) From the packaging to the filter case, to the filter itself, the quality is there. It is very well built, and performs wonderfully.I would not take the time to write this review, but I felt compelled to do it for others that are looking for a "GREAT VND FILTER"!!! Take a look at the video I previously mentioned, and see for yourself! I hope this is of help to someone. Maybe You! Thanks, Shooter Boone.

From this exact page, ordered and got it shipped fast but, out of the box, this was difficult to thread onto a Canon Ef-s 17-55 f2.8. This shouldn't be a 5 min task.Couldn't use my lens hood once the filter was on. Immediately requested a return.I have other 77mm filters and polarizers that easily affix and still permit the use of the lens hood.Must be difficult to design a variable ND filter that can do the same.

I enjoy this filter! I have it on a 24-105 lens that I have pretty much started using exclusively except for a couple of other lenses here and there. I used to shoot all the time with a Sony FS5, and its ND filters were pretty much on this level. The first screenshot is color graded somewhat, and the other screenshot is not graded and from a different camera. I don't think you should compare the two. The important thing for me is to show the versatility you get with your images.

Pretty damn good. I’ve shot with it several times over the past week or so. It’s awesome. Great quality filter.

ND filter for my Blackmagic 2.5k camera works perfectly allows me to dial in the amount needed to get a decent image. Thanks I would buy it again.

1. If you throw this on your camera it makes your smaller flashes very powerful.2. I used it for a 30 second exposure at the maximum ND and did find the x was in the image..I used live view and adjusted the shadow to add more depth to the image above where the darker "X" spot existed on the maximum darkness.3. i will buy from them all the agin..the quality of this tool for me as a professional photographer is perfect. It evens come with alit circular case to tuck into your pocket when it's not needed.4. It's also brilliant on the lens when using your DSLR for video work! It so much easier to spin the filter to adjust for the exposure instead of messing with your F stop or shutter speed.Bottom Line..this thing is useful and what a bargain.I've used very expensive Neutral Density filters in the past and this is better than those.30 second long exposures at Noon are so much fun..buy this and go play! It's a lot of fun to use.

I've had this for a couple of weeks now and am satisfied. It nice not having to screw on and off ND filters of various stops. I use this mostly for landscape photography on my 5D Mark III with 17-40mm f4 wide angle. Be advised that if you use the OEM lens hood for the 17-40mm lens the hood will NOT fit over the variable ND filter. This is the only drawback for me as I make an effort to always use a lens hood with all my glass.
