X-PRO Filter Set mit CPL + ND 8/64/1000
I received the new X-PRO filter set today and have already tested its applicability in the apartment. I'll give you a verdict on the quality of the filter glasses and how they can be combined in one shot... The box supplied holds the holder + adapter rings + CPL + ND 8/64/1000. The compartments can be pulled out on the drawstring and the filters can then be removed very easily. The plastic filter frames are discreetly sharp-edged, but not uncomfortable, and allow the filter to be removed and handled without having to touch the glass. Thanks to the tabs on the frame, the filters can also be pulled out of the holder very easily, especially in any order. I ordered two empty frames in 100 X 150 from the manufacturer's website, which should hold my graduated filters, which I have from another manufacturer, upon receipt. I'm curious how well this works. If it works, then I have a complete system for myself, with CPL, three ND filters and two graduated filters (Soft 0.9 and Reverse Soft 0.9). Sliding the filters in and out of the holder requires some force, but isn't awkward or imprecise. In this way, the graduated filter will also be easy to align. The handling of the CPL filter with the insert bracket is great, the turning mechanism is a bit rough, but precise. Screwing the adapter rings onto the lens works very well, the threads are cleanly worked, so nothing rubs. Attaching the holder to the adapter ring is also a joy and the presence of a set screw is very welcome as the holder rotates on the ring with relative ease. The handling of the system has already convinced me, I can live well with "only" two slots for my needs and I'm looking forward to the first use, in the next few days, in the great outdoors and with cold fingers. So far I've worked with round screw filters and dispensed with gradient filters, which I would like to change now. I also looked at the system from Rollei (Mark II), which cannot keep up with the handling of the X-PRO from K+F. Everything is very flat and fiddly, offers hardly any contact surface for holding and assembling the parts. Getting the polarizing filter or adapter ring out of the holder is no fun and almost impossible with cold fingers. K&F solved this much better. If you want to use gradient filters, the X-PRO set is a good choice. If you only need gray filters, I would recommend a magnetic round filter set with a diameter that is significantly larger than your largest lens, which is even faster to use, is more compact and should then do not darken with several filters in parallel.
