This filter gives a very pleasing soft effect to your images. I definitely recommend it.

This my second filter from K&F Concept. I just started using filters and this one does the job. There is a slight noticeable softness that I think in the right setting, can make a difference. There's no unwanted color or effects. It does exactly what it's supposed to.

I like to take lake pictures and I also get a lot of glare from the water and the sun it's all around me and this filter helps solve that problem because it can get extremely bright i've also used this filter outside in car shows and motorcycle demonstrations where it has shiny paint which makes it glare out in the sun and can can get extremely bright like a point light And this filter will help stop that. thank you

I have a Nikon DSLR kit for beginners as well as a more advanced kit and each came with two lenses. I am still learning how to use the advanced camera, but I feel fairly proficient with the beginner's model and I'm interesting in trying out new accessories. I needed protective lens filters for all of the lenses, and I have been slowly building up a collection of filters with various effects and learning what each of them can do. I like to take portraits so I was intrigued by the softening effects possible with this 1/4 black diffusion mist filter. I ordered the 55 mm version to use on a 70 -300 mm Nikkor zoom lens and it fits perfectly. It is very thin and light and I can use it with other filters as I gain a little more experience. So far, I have only used it by itself to take pictures of our dogs and some interesting plants and flowers. It really does blur background lights and helps to reduce contrast on the subject and refine the image. The glass and coatings are of excellent quality and clarity and the current price of of $49.99 for this lens filter seems very reasonable. It comes with a cap as well as a simple case for storage.

I'm always looking to add tools to my camera bag to improve my in-camera photography without the need for excessive post-production. It's always better to get it right in-camera! This is far from being high tech, just a nice black diffusion filter. Works well for the job it was designed for.

If you are working around a lot of UV light and the blue tones in your images are just killing your eyes during the editing process, use this filter on your lens and it will clean up 90 percent of that for you. I have had this now for several months and it kills the need for extra blue tone work in post production about as good as any other filter out there.

I love using this filter for stylistic shoots. It blooms the highlights very nicely and gives the shots a vintage cinematic effect. If you want to have a dreamy, cinematic look straight out of camera, this is an excellent filter to use. Keep in mind this will soften the image so if you want ultra sharp, pixel peeping images then you wouldn’t want to use this, but it creates such a pleasant effect that gives you an excellent base to start your edit.

This K&F Concept filter screwed on smoothly to my lens, without any of the harsh turning sounds other filters made that I have tried.

This filter is rather unique in my collection, because it is the first filter I own that has a screw on filter cap. It is similar to a lens cap, but much thinner and made of metal.

I own a lot of UV filters, but this is a diffusion filter. It produces a noticeable glow around light sources. It is a 1/4 strength filter and did produce more of a glow than another brand's 1/8 filter that I tried. I guess there is some uniformity in how much glow they produce, across brands, relatively speaking.

The filter itself feels thick and substantial.

You can really see the diffusion coating on the glass.

Overall, I am happy with this filter and it did what it is supposed to do. It produces a glow that is a bit unnatural, but not too over-the-top.

Includes: case, and filter.
Tested with my nikon kit lens. (see my sample photos)
Each Top photo was taken on a tripod with a 10 second timer.
Each Bottom photo, the black mist pro filter was added.
This really does work as the name suggests!
Side by side you can see the colors and focus in the original without filter.
Then after applying the filter to the front of the lens,
you get a black mist. This calms down the color saturation and the sharpness.
Just a small amount.

The case.
Top twists off from the bottom and is made of a smoked plastic. The edges have a nice groove set.
Makes opening and closing easy. Branding on top.
The bottom is made of the same plastic and has the same grooves on the side.
The highlight is the 2 gray silicone pads that are glued down inside.
(These grooves will hold you filter) You could also use with smaller and larger filters.
That's a plus.

The filter.
Is slim line and made of aluminum.
Sides have really nice grooves, makes using the filter very smooth.
Great glass. Actually scratch resistant.
Took out my keys and hey no scratches. Thumbs up.
Waterproof.
Filter weighs only .5 ounces. Both the case and filter weight 2.7 ounces.

Overall very pleased with the filter.
Great quality.
I picked up the 52mm version.
Used 2 of my kit lens and no issues. Very smooth to install and remove from lens.
Easy to clean. Should last a very long time.

I prefer to shoot with filters verse going into software and spending extra time to get a similar effect.
Hope this was helpful.

Product sent by supplier was wrong, ordered a 77mm and I received a 82mm, I've had to purchase an additional Step Down ring to convert it as I can't return as it'll take too much time. Other than that, I've played around with the filter already and it's a lot of fun and I'm excited to use it in upcoming projects.
