49mm ND2-ND32 (1-5 Stop) Variable ND Filter and CPL Circular Polarizing Filter 2 in 1 for Camera Lens No X Spot Weather Sealed
SKU: KF01.1319
I took these test photos at the beach in the late afternoon on a very sunny day. I can see the filter/polarizer has removed any glare from the water, my dog's eyes are so clear with color! Very happy with my purchase

I like that it's a variable ND and polarizing filter combined. It makes setting up my shot so much easier, without trying to put in two different filters. On top of that, this filter feels and sounds really solid. Another important thing is that this filter doesn't have the annoying "X" that some others have. I would recommend it and think it would be great for anyone who wants a decent ND and polarizing filter without spending hundreds of dollars.

Very nice to be able to adjust both the ND and CPL from one filter. You do need to be careful though as adjusting the ND Filter can also accidentally turn the filter, unintentionally adjusting the CPL.
Works great on my Panasonic GH6!
The GH6 lens cap kind of works on there, but there is not a lot to grab on to. I'd recommend a 67mm lens cap, which will work perfectly.

The filter is supplied in a plastic carrying case with high quality foam for protection. The filter sits firmly in the housing, so you can be sure that it will not move after storage or be damaged during transport. The filter itself feels of good build quality, with the metal frame holding the glass in place. I like the lever for adjusting the stops, the action is smooth and doesn't move on its own. I would have preferred if K&F had included a lens cap, just in case I wanted to leave the filter on the camera.

Llevo varias semanas buscando filtros principalmente ND.
He visto precios de todo tipo, y está claro que la calidad hay que pagarla.
Este filtro no tiene ningún tipo de aberración cromática. Lo utilizo normalmente con un Tamrom 28-75 2.8, para poder aprovechar la apertura en exteriores.
Siendo un poco crítico, la palanca para ajustar el filtro ND es bastante “sensible” y se mueve con facilidad. Esto no es problema si no se manipula mucho el objetivo. Se convierte en un problema cuando quieres también polarizar la imagen, donde tienes que mover el extremo del filtro y casi siempre sin querer se manipula el ND.
En conclusión, es un objetivo muy asequible en relación calidad precio. No tiene aberraciones de ningún tipo y tiene fácil montaje. En contra, el diseño de fabricación podría ser un poco más certero, dando opciones por ejemplo, a bloquear el ND con algún tipo de tornillo

I picked up this product because I needed an ND filter, and having the added benefit of a CPL+ND combo for only $30 more was too great of a deal to pass up. I really love it, it's very easy to use... but I can't believe I didn't think of this when I bought it: IT INTERPHERES WITH MY LENS HOOD.
I really like my lens hood. However, when thinking about this: if I had my lens hood wrapped around another option, I wouldn't be able to adjust the amount of light coming thru the filter... so I suppose when it comes to ND filters and lens hoods, you just have to pick one or the other. For that reason, this product gets 4 instead of 5 stars. Otherwise? It's a great option by every metric.

Overall I gave the product a 4. Reason is that if set at the ND value of ND2 and then adjust the polarizer for maximum effect, the adjusting the fader would cause a change of the polarization through the range. This may be the nature of such a device, but simply set the fader first and the adjust the polarization solves the issue. It may be just a quirk of this unique device. The only "negative" is that I need to find a lens cap to fit if I want to simply let this filter live on the lens. My 67mm cap is too small.

Bought this for my 35mm f2 which I am using on a Canon RP. I wanted it for slowing down the shutter speed for waterfalls I'll visit this summer, as well as deepening the blue in skies. It works as advertised. Nice metal build quality that feels well made. I like the stiffness on the variable ND part. It stays where I set it, and so far it's working great at reducing the light coming into the camera, allowing me to use longer shutter speeds to get the flowing water effect I was after. I usually use the polarizing part of the filter on the lowest ND setting. I'm adding two photos that I think show the polarizing effect pretty clearly. There is some colour difference between using the filter vs not as well as at different filter settings (rotations). I think this is pretty standard, at least I've observed it in the polarizing filters I've used in the past. I've been satisfied dealing with colour shifting using WB and calibration adjustments on raw files in Lightroom. I don't see any degradation in sharpness. I'm pretty picky and do view files at 100%. Very glad I purchased this filter combo. Great value for the money! I'll also add that I accidentally used it once over a thin UV filter and was glad to not see any vignetting.
