This is a diffusion filter that adds just a subtle amount of haze to you're shots. It also exhibits a slight grey tint. I would approximate 5%. This product is compatible with the following cameras Fujifilm X100/X100F/X100S/X100T/X100V/X100VI (Nano-X Series).
The whole premise of this filter is to add subtle haze and bloom to film and video. This helps to soften light and overall skin. This helps in reducing wrinkles fine lines and pores. Adding a somewhat dream like effect. There are many grades ( percentage ) of haze you can add with various other filters in this lineup. From subtle such as this one to vary bloomed and hazy.
I have had the pleasure of reviewing K&H products in the past and they've always shown great attention to detail and superb craftsmanship. Their lens glass has always been superb with edge to edge sharpness and good optic properties.
Things to consider:
As you can see adding additional glass may result in reflections and extra light flares. This is common and is part of the trade off when using certain types of lens add-ons.
Final thoughts:
This is a good tool to have in you're kit. On those special occasions where you need extra mood. Perfect for weddings, child photography, dream sequences in film and many more concepts. With great build quality and a well designed carrying case. This product might be what you've been looking for.

Filtro per x100
Sostanzialmente trasforma la luce diretta in un glove aeroso mistico, una sorta di emanazione fatata
Ho fatto una prova al volo con luce diretta: dove vedete la raggiera non c’è il filtro, dove vedete la palla di luce omogenea invece è a filtro montato.
Due note sull’oggetto in sé: colore ok con il modello silver.
Quello che è strano è che un lato ha filettatura femmina 49, in pratica si avvita sulla x100vi e sorelle. L’altro lato del filtro però ha filettatura 52 maschio!!! In pratica non ci potrete montare sopra o sotto altri filtri, che non siano il sistema magnetico di K&F.

Great inexpensive diffusion filter for Fuji cameras, but also will work on any lens with 55mm diameter. On Fuji it will sit naturally and you can screw in 52mm filters on top or drop in magnet filters from K&F. The pictures and the diffusion effect is great. I didn't notice any color cast or flare or other artefacts. The filter does what it's designed to be. It creates glowing effect around the light source and also the softens the areas were the light is. It's great for portrait works where you want to have that cinematic look, also for street photography especially in night. Great quality product from K&F and cost effective compering to other brends.

I got this filter for my long-awaited Fujifilm X100VI. This is a 1/4 strength black mist diffusion filter, and it provides a very subtle diffusion effect which works very well for slightly softening portraits. The silver frame of the filter is a great match for the silver of the camera and looks very good when screwed on. I plan on leaving this filter on my camera all the time (it's great for protection as well as for the diffusion effect) but I appreciate that is comes with a hard plastic storage case to keep it safe if I do remove the filter.
K&F also makes a clear UV protector version of this filter, so if you like the idea of a protective filter on your X100 camera but don't want the diffusion effect that this particular filter provides, you could opt for that instead.
The filter has a magnetic frame that allows you to add K&F's magnetic filters. I have some of these filters in a larger size that I use for my Nikon DSLR and it's a great system so I likely will buy a couple of 52mm magnetic filters to use with this filter; I'd like the polarizer and ND filter. I've collected more than 10 K&F filters over the years and have always been super happy with the quality. They make great products and this one is no exception. Highly recommended if you're lucky enough to own a camera from the X100 series!

This is a great lens filter for the X100VI camera. no filter adapters needed. It will fit directly on to the X100VI thread. The material is very high quality, a very close match to the camera color and design. It can also take additional filters on the front end. But it only takes 52mm filters, not 49mm size. K&F also has its own lens hood that fits with this filter as well. Makes it a perfect system for the X100VI.

Fits, but kind of pricey for a filter that doesn't also have UV or CPL also. Makes photos look more like film-ish. Hopefully I can stack other filters. Also I wish it came in black for the all-black fx100. Honestly this is nice but not needed, just a nice luxury since there's built in settings

Black Diffusion Filter.
The filter itself is very well made, nice quality metal ring, good quality screw thread with a clear glass black filter. The filter helps you diffuse the light to help you control the contrast, similar to a neutral density filter, but this also softens the image to give a more cinematic look.
A nice additional to your in camera control rather than trying to force change in post production.

Le design de mon Fuji X100T reste intact même avec filtre ce qui est cool.
La qualité du filtre est au rendez vous comme toujours chez K&F, même si ca reste un filtre d'entrée de gamme ça suffira pour la plupart des personnes.

From the moment it is screwed onto the lens, you can see the quality of the product, as it fits tightly and securely, avoiding any type of unwanted movement. With this filter, we achieve a subtle diffusion effect that is very useful for portraits, smoothing skin imperfections without losing the essence of the details.
It comes with a hard plastic case that ensures that the filter stays in good condition when not in use, which is a much appreciated plus. In addition, we also have the option of a clear UV filter if protection without the diffusion effect is preferred.
Where the quality can be seen is in the small details, such as the magnetic frame that allows you to attach other K&F magnetic filters, a brand that does not disappoint and I say this after having tried quite a few of the brand's filters.
