I have to say that I am glad that I did, as the filter is very high quality and yet affordable. This filter features an aluminum filter frame, and multi-coated front and rear optical glass elements and comes with a magnetic filter mount.

The quality and workmanship of the filter were evident once we received and checked it. The filter glass remains clear and free from scratches, fingerprints, or any other marks, the magnetic mounting ring provides a secure connection to my lenses and does not move or vibrate, and the polarizer dial turns effortlessly. The leather storage pouch that comes with it is also a plus when it comes to maintaining the condition of the filter when not in use.

When I affixed and applied it during some of my photography sessions, particularly landscape ones, this filter performed perfectly in darkening skies, eliminating reflections, and boosting more saturation and contrast in my shots, just as an effective polarizer ought to. The multi-coatings also contribute in minimising flaring and enhancing transmission of light. Because the frame depth is virtually paper thin, it’s possible to stack them behind other filters with no loss of image clarity due to vignetting.

In summary, I am satisfied with the characteristics of this magnetic circular polarizer by K&F Concept. I was very glad to see that it provides all the utility I would expect for a filter in a much higher class and a much more expensive brand name.” In conclusion, for the photographer in search of a good CPL filter that is slim and budget friendly, this is an excellent option to go for.
