This is a terrific filter, my only wish is that it was magnetic. It certainly helps with the night photography, which is one of my favorite times to take photographs.

I thought I was getting some nice night shots before I tried a natural night filter!
This was shot from a cruise ship at sea, so I’ve got a glow of light around me, from the decks just above, that I’m shooting through/past to the moon, the result is I usually get a “lit up” sky that has an unnatural feel, and the moon may seem more natural in a white or cream, but it feels wrong or out of place against its background.
The natural night filter brought the two together so the moon and its background/the sky both feel more natural.
In an ideal world I’d find a darker location on deck, but, for now, I’m delighted with the results.

I use the Natural Night Filter on the Xperia 1 V to shoot urban night scapes and astrophotography. Colours and details are amazing. Street lights do get a cross star pattern, which ads a more "artistic" result. I would like to avoid that if possible. I am still to test this filter on my Nikon gear. Recently I am focusing on mobile photography.

I really like this lens, I ordered a 77mm, fits good, my problem is it came unsealed, & very handled, im very disappointed in the case. For the price of the lens to arrived in a generic type, fits all case, is a not good. I can come up with a different case for it, it still bugs me. I'm debating on a exchange, the lens seems ok.!!!! Just, I ordered a new lens, not a OPEN BOX... I like sealed case's, Not Open beat up ones that come in a hand sealed
green clear generic bag so nothing falls out... The only thing missing is a big orange sticker saying USED...
Other then that it's a very nice clear lens, I just have some thinking to do... I worry that it may become defective after a bit, you just never know.
I have other very nice lens's from these guys, they didn't come this way...!!!!
I hope this isn't the New thing with they're lens's...
Very bummed... ;(
Shipping was fast.
Thank you...
God Bless...

Was delivered same day, and works as advertised. I was able to get these shots from my backyard in the light polluted skies of Houston. Bortle 8/9.

This filter is doing its job perfectly. It catchs night light pollution so I could take clear night sky. I've tried it at Josua tree national park to capture Neowise comet, and it worked perfectly.

It helps a lot in reducing light pollution. Here is a photo of the newesi comet from the city of Pasadena

Made my night photography a lot cleaner.
Took some long exposures with and without and noticed there was a lot less light pollution and noise with this filter on

Shooting in the city always undermines the results because of light pollution. But even in Bolter meter 4 light bollution I was able to use this filter get the desired effects I wanted in my photos. As a novice astrophotography I recommend.

I was setting up my camera to test the filter on my Rokinon 12mm f2 NCS lens by taking some star trail photos, when I noticed a noctilucent cloud (NLC) to the northwest, about 2 hrs after sunset. The cloud image is edited to show the subtle details in the cloud. I live in Vancouver, Washington, which is a few miles north of Portland, Oregon, so I'm surrounded by city lights. The filter did a fantastic job filtering out the stray light in the sky for both images.
