Well Constructed Star Filters
K&F makes affordable quality photographer's accessories, and these star filters are one of them. As with other K&F metal filter frames have thick, easy-to-handle knurling on the edges, making them easy to screw on and off a lens. The filter allows swiveling to adjust the direction of the star points. The included case is luxurious compared to the usual plastic cases, with a leather and fabric enclosure with velcro fasteners.
In my tests, the lens has little effect on the darker portion of a night scene. It creates sharp-looking stars off highlights. The stronger the light source, the bigger the stars. Careful exposure is important; if the image is overexposed, the source lights will look overblown and fuzzy. The same is true about shooting jewelry, which can always benefit from a well-placed glint.
