49mm Lens Filter Black Mist 1/8 & Variable ND2-32 2 in 1 Filter Cinematic Effect Neutral Density Filter with 18 Multi-Layer Coatings - Nano-Klear Series
SKU: KF01.2865V1
This camera filter is filled with some pretty neat technology. It acts almost like an f-stop in that you can dial it to allow more or less light through it. It gives you photos a cool effect and is pretty impressive. It takes a bit to learn how to use it but it really gives a new dimension to photography. It screws right into the lens filter screw on your canon lens and is really easy to install. You can then put your lens cap on the end of the filter and it still is protected. The kit comes with lens wipes and all you need to get the filter installed. This is a pretty impressive product and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to try something new with their photography and branch out with some new filters.

I am loving this variable filter. They are like “sunglasses” for your camera so that the shots are not overblown on a bright day. This is for my first mirrorless camera, an a6700 which was pricey for me, so I appreciate not having to invest too much on different filter types and just have the one which I can change to suit my needs. Since I am an amateur, I can’t really provide a ton of insight as I am still learning, but the K&F brand is high quality and its reputation is well earned.

This 67mm Black Diffusion Mist 1/8 & Variable ND2-32 in-1 Filter by K&F Concept does exactly what it should while protecting my lens in the case of impact. It seems to be well made. I've purchased filters that have had sharp threads but this is not the case here. It has a substantial profile to it; the construction is solid. I'm very pleased with this filter and find it to be of excellent value.
Oh yeah the microfiber cleaning clothes are seriously the best I’ve ever received as a “bonus” and I’ve purchased countless lens filters in the past 20+ years. I highly recommend K&F Concept products

In the past, I often found myself spending hundreds of dollars on high-end German camera lens filters, believing that their premium quality was essential for my photography. I always assumed that opting for cheaper filters would result in a noticeable degradation of picture quality, and while this notion still holds some truth, my perspective has shifted recently. I've discovered that K&F filters offers a range of affordable lens filters that do not compromise on quality. As long as you select their models featuring multi-layer nano coatings, you can expect satisfactory performance without breaking the bank.
I conducted a comparison of photos taken both with and without this filter, and I found that the sharpness remained largely consistent. The primary difference was the introduction of an extra layer of whimsical softness due to the characteristics of the Mist filter, which can be quite appealing for portrait photography. This additional softness adds an artistic touch to the images, making them feel more vibrant and dreamlike, enhancing the overall aesthetic.
Moreover, the variable ND function on this filter has a well-designed hard stop at both ends, effectively preventing any unwanted "X" effect that can ruin a shot. The ND32 setting is particularly useful for street photography; it allows me to creatively capture movement and motion within my images while also reducing harsh light that can be a challenge in bright conditions. This feature enhances my ability to portray a dynamic atmosphere in my photographs, providing me with flexibility and control.
In summary, K&F continues to impress with their outstanding value filters that combine affordability with quality craftsmanship. I find that I no longer need to spend a small fortune on brand-name filters, as the differences in performance are minimal at best. I highly recommend these filters to anyone looking to achieve exceptional results without overspending!

This 82mm filter is basically your camera lens’s cheat code. It's a 2-in-1 combo—variable ND and black diffusion mist; which means you get that moody, cinematic softness and control over your exposure in bright light, all without swapping gear mid-shoot. Perfect for indie filmmakers or anyone trying to get dreamy skin tones and motion blur in daylight.
Pros:
Built-in ND2–32 (1–5 stops) = great for daylight shoots, smooth shutter control
Subtle 1/8 diffusion gives skin a soft glow without losing detail = pro look
No dreaded "X" pattern thanks to smart frame-lock tech (huge win)
Optical glass + 18-layer coatings = clean image, minimal reflections, easy to clean
82mm size is big, great for wide lenses, but double-check your thread size. Just get this one and buy step up rings for all your lenses
Cons:
ND range stops at 5 = not quite dark enough for super long exposures or harsh midday sun

1/8 ND filter. this is the lightest option for these type of filters, the effect might be hard to notice if you don't know what to look for. i adds a slight soft layer to photos/video, and especially at night or for light sources, it can add some flaring. do a google search for side by side photo comparison if you are uncertain.

I recently purchased this 67mm Black Diffusion Mist 1/8 & Variable ND2-32 in-1 Filter and I must say I am highly impressed. The build quality is excellent, with a sturdy construction that feels like it can withstand regular use. The filter provides a beautiful cinematic effect, adding a soft diffusion to my photos while also allowing me to control the amount of light entering the lens with the variable ND feature. I have noticed a significant improvement in the overall quality of my images since using this filter. The 18 layers of coating ensure that there is minimal glare and ghosting, resulting in clear and sharp images. Overall, I highly recommend this filter to any photographer looking to add a creative touch to their work.

this filter is perfect for softening an image and giving it more character. I like a nice sharp, clinical lens but there are those times that i want a dreamy look straight out of camera. At 1/8 the effect is not heavy but is noticeable. It is also great for video work to soften and balance skin textures and tones. The filter is crafted well and is easy to use and maintain.

K&F simply makes some of the best value filters for photography and videography. There are multiple reviews on the internet comparing their filters to much more expensive counterparts and K&F always seems to hold well against these "better" name brands is not exceeding their performance. I have several different ND, UV, CPL type filters from them and this 1/8 Black Diffusion filter, VND Filter combo works well. Ideal for outdoor portraits where you are looking to soften the look a bit or even for shooting product images/videos.
