72mm CPL+MCUV+ND1000+Lens Cap Circular Polarizing Filter MCUV Protection Neutral Density Lens Filters Kit with 24 Layer Coatings Nano-Dazzle Series
SKU: SKU.2273V1
I’ve been a fan of K&F Filters, and many of their other photographic products, for some time now, and have come to appreciate the consistency and the quality of the brand. The majority of my lenses live their lives with a K&F Concept UV protective filter on their front element.
I have done enough testing of the transmittance and sharpness of K&F UV filters in the past that I now consider them a trusted brand; I feel confident in their quality. I consider them a go-to, trusted seller.
I ordered this set of filters specifically for a fast, manual focus Zeiss 50mm f1.4 Planar Canon EF lens that mounts to my Sony camera via a Metabones EF-E adapter; this is an ideal kit for maintaining more control over exposure when recording video in a brightly lit environment. The UV filter provides inexpensive insurance, protecting the front element of the lens. The UV filtration, in practice, has little effect, since a UV filter is already installed over the Bayer array of digital sensors by the manufacturer; it has a more practical application in film photography. The included CPL filter is, of course, a mainstay of professional photography. Besides controlling some reflections and saturation, it also provides a limited range of variable neutral density.
K&F was thinking slow shutter speeds when they decided to include a 10-stop ND filter, which implies that this set of filters is geared toward the landscape photographer. On the other hand, it allows for shooting wide open at f1.4 in bright sunlight, although at a higher ISO than I would prefer. It’s more useful when using the camera on a tripod or monopod so the ISO can be kept reasonably low. Or, of course, using it with the lens closed down with a slow shutter speed in order to facilitate a special effect, like the smooth, ethereal look of blurred flowing water.
The physical attributes of the filters are, without exaggeration, their near featherweight, along with facetted chines on its circumference, for grip. In addition, K&F’s beautiful, 24-layerd, multi-coated glass to inhibit internal reflections. Interestingly, and unfortunately, although no fault of their design, the faceting on the aluminum frames prevents putting on or taking off the Zeiss lens’ original reversible, bayoneted lens shade. I can attach the lens shade, then the filter(s), but I need to remove the filter(s) before I can remove the lens shade; I’m a stickler for the use of lens shades and its an unfortunate inconvenience. But particular to this lens.
The two K&F front lens caps provided are a match in quality, if not an improvement, to the OEM lens cap that came with the lens. The pinching levers are easy to use, firmly spring-loaded, and provide a firm grip to the filter or the lens, on whichever it’s placed.
As I noted at the beginning, I’ve come to rely on the quality of K&F filters, and for all the benefits that the seller asserts, but most importantly to me, the high quality of their AGC multi-coated, anti-reflective glass. AGC, a Japanese company, is the largest manufacturer of glass in the world. Another reason I have confidence in K&F filters.
The filters are supplied with two lens caps, two lanyards to keep the lens caps from wondering off, three high-quality microfiber lens cleaning cloths and two plastic storage cases. K&F Concept provides plenty of value for your money and they don’t cut corners; everything provided is of the same high-quality.

I just bought a Sony 24-70 GM and needed a pair of 82mm UV filters for protection and CPL for landscape photography.
It comes with a pair of above stated LL filters, two storage boxes, two lens covers and a pair of strings to attach to the lens covers. It also comes with a pair of lens cloth...this is a good deal for its price.
The filters threads on to my GM lens very smoothly and fitted very well. I don't see obvious discoloration and CPL performs as expected.
I'd recommend to those who are on a budget and cannot afford bigger brands such as B&W, Nisi, etc.

The K&F Concept 67mm CPL MCUV ND1000 Lens Filter 2 Lens Caps Kits is well made and easy to use. Filter lens looks amazing on Sony lens and protects it at all times and makes all my photos look high quality.

First of all this is from K&F, so I know I’m getting a quality product for the money. I had ordered the 52mm set as these will work on some of the EF, EF-S, and M mount lenses I own. I was in the market to buy a UV filter for a new lens, but this set included a polarizing and ND filter, so I could not pass up this deal. One can never have enough spare lens caps as I tend to lose them on occasion. As a tip, I always leave the OEM cap that came with the lens at home, because they are more valuable and help with the resale of a lens if you elect to do so.
With the two enclosed lens cap keepers that are included, I’ll use them with caps I don’t wish to lose at this time. As always, K&F has included a couple of microfiber clothes to help keep the lenses and filters clean.
If you think you will need more than just a UV filter for the protection of your lens, you may want to consider this set as a way to be a bit more creative.

This is yet another fantastic filter set I have gotten from K&F. They have always been wonderful in the past and very helpful customer service unlike most other companies I have dealt with. Would highly recommend trying this set out, and would always recommend to go big and then get step up rings to adapt to all of your glass.

I have become quite attached to K&F filters over the past year. Didn't use filters for the first 30 years I played with cameras consistently. This year I decided it was time for change, and have been trying every one I can reasonably get my hands on. K&F is just kinda my go-to now. This particular set...I got because I want to create some custom filters for myself...and one of the really great things about these filters is the value for dollar spent. They are great quality at really good prices...so if I sorta mess up when attempting these custom filters...I won't feel a ton of guilt because the investment amount was relatively small. If it works...the payoff is amazing custom filters at super reasonable prices because you started from these. Love 'em, and gonna keep trying new ways to use them.

I can see most users getting these lens filters for their dslrs or other types of cameras. Unlike them, I got the 67mm filter to fit my Xiaomi 13 ultra phone with the use of an adapter ring that fits around the case and these lens screw in smoothly with no problem. They are so clean and despite not being a professional in the art of photography or videography, I can tell that the colors were brought out more naturally and pictures that originally were too bright were now dimmed now with less washed out whites. This was definitely an overkill filter for my phone but I wanted to try it out but it definitely works for me.

Not much to say here, is just a great set of filters. I feel every photographer should have these filters in their bag. The UV filter provides some protection from UV light, but most photographers just use them as a protective layer for their lens. The CPL is a cool filter to have, and helps cut down reflections from things like water surface. The 10 stop ND filter is just straight up useful for controlling light and getting long exposure shots. I found the optical quality of these filters to be good, and the build quality is pretty nice as well. I recommend!

Really nice and well made filters. Thread well onto my lenses and function as intended. These filters allow you to shoot really bright things without blowing out all the highlights. The lens caps are a nice bonus and the kit comes with a couple little straps also.
