62mm Magnetic Variable ND8-ND128(3-7 Stop) Lens Filters + Magnetic Filter Basic Ring Kit with 28 Multi-Layer Nano-Xcel Series
SKU: KF01.1977
I needed to protect the lens on my FZ300 and this filter has good reviews. The overall quality seems very good and the packaging works well when it is larger than necessary. The filter screws on well without affecting the fit of the hood, stows or unfolds upside down and shows no vignetting at 25mm. There doesn't seem to be any noticeable degradation in photo quality. I'll update if I find any more issues in the future, but this filter seems like a good buy.

After looking at different reviews of different ND filters, zeroed it on K&F Concept VND filter.
Economical, High Performance VND filter that produces spotless long exposure photos.
I have tried waterfalls and the results are stunning.. the Special Nano Series with No X Cross produces videos and photos without any vignetting at extreme stops in broad day light.

Love the magnetic filter system. They’re such a low profile. From my photo, I didn’t lose sharpness and didn’t get a color cast. I’ve already bought more and couldn’t be any happier. I’m able to stack my CPL filter without a problem. They’ve proven to be reliable. No complaints from me.

This filter will really up my photography! Some landscapes near me can be very bright and I needed a filter to adjust the brightness from the camera with ease. It comes in a nice case and the lens is constructed very well. To install, just screw it onto the lens. You can move the front of the filter up and down to adjust how much neutral density to apply. It makes taking pictures so much easier!

When I ordered the K&F variable ND filter, I wasn’t sure what to expect in terms of quality and the coloring that would be achieved when my images were rendered. However, the colors do not shift at all, and I was pleased with how nicely they pair with the Sony A7iii and A7riii. As an owner of both Polar Pro and Tiffen filters, I must say this filter is a cost-efficient product, coming in at half the cost of the Polar Pro filters I own. Even better, is that this filter has hard stops so you don't get that X when you go beyond the filter’s limit. If you're on the fence about ordering this product, I highly recommend trying it out. Below, I've added a couple images where the K&F variable ND filter was utilized- one shows the filter on my Sigma 135mm f/1.8 Art, and the other demonstrates a portrait I took while using it.

These is my 2nd variable ND from K&F. The quality it's good as Tiffen and others manufacturers. Instead of have a lot of ND of different sizes it's better have a variable ND for my photography work and save same money.
The only CONS it's the protective case that came with the ND. It's nice but too big.

I am usually against UV/haze filters due to concerns about their impact on image quality. However, I plan to use my Sigma 150-600 DG DN Sport (Sony E-mount) in fairly harsh conditions such as shorebird photography, surf photography, and sports. So I gave in and bought this filter to protect the front element of the lens. In view of the fact that this K&F filter would probably be classified in the “middle class” in terms of price, I wanted to test whether it actually had an effect on image quality. The attached image of a $20 bill was taken under exactly the same circumstances: 600mm at ISO 100, tripod with no OS. As you can see from the screenshot taken in the comparison view of my image editing software, the image on the right (with filter) is much sharper and richer in contrast. I am shocked! I was hoping to remove the filter if I wanted a better image. Now I can leave it on 100% of the time and just wipe away any spills or dust without worrying about scratching the front panel. Strong recommendation!

I always get filters with anti-slip design when available. That makes a huge difference. I compared it to Hoya HD2. I took this on Canon M50 with Nikon 35-70mm f/2.8 AF ZOOM-NIKKOR. 1) No filter. 2) K&F. 3) Hoya HD2. Sure its not a great test but I cant tell any difference between the 3. The Hoya was visually as good as the K&F except it was so staticy I had to return it. I also didnt like that it was not anti-slip. The K&F is not staticy at all and very easy to clean. If there is no reflection it looks like there is no glass in the ring. Kinda like magic. Its very well made. I use it on my Zeiss 50mm f/1.5 Sonnar T* ZM. There is no play and it fits perfectly. Very happy with the purchase.

I almost returned it when I discovered my lens came with a complimentary $50 Sigma lens UV filter. The optics are wonderful, but I'm about to go to Niagara Falls and figure I don't want to marry my lens cloth. I figured, why not test them both out under the sink before I return it? Glad I did! Like magic, this K&H filter drains and all the water disappears. The free Sigma filter? It sucks up the water! And it's hard to get it down! If you received a free high-quality UV filter and it stays dry 24/7, there's no need to upgrade. Do you value versatility in any climate? Buy this now!
