Stunning results, worth the cost
I've always been of the opinion that photo filters and lenses are expensive, though I recognize that good glass and coatings aren't cheap. This filter, though...the results are magical. Golden and blue hour photos take on soft mystical qualities, fairy lights turn into will-o-wisps rather than bokeh, skin imperfections are evened out somewhat, and it does a better job than my old soft-focus filter which tended to lighten shadows too much. It's THE filter I reach for if I'm trying to create a fantasy atmosphere, and can make even a photo of a garden gnome look plausible.

I love the way this has the magnetic ring mount, though I'm sad that most of my other filters are screw-in and therefore can't swap easily with this. Perhaps someday I'll be able to get more; my filter stack was mostly built in the early 2000s and could use a few upgrades. This one's worth every penny of its list price for the results.

Great product.
The quality is amazing. Very easy to use as well. The case and accessories that come with it are great for the price. Not to mention, three batteries?
