It softens the shot a little but overall it's not bad... still useable. If you absolutely need a tack sharp image then spend the extra money and get a better filter. If not this will definitely get the job done.

Helpful filter for those bright sunny days. Allows you to dial in and keep your shots from being blown out. Every photographer should have a filter like this in their bag.

For the price this is a great nd filter, The only downside is that you get a slight green colour cast but nothing you can’t fix in post production, otherwise great filter.

Works

One of the greatest Variable ND filters for its price range.Of course, If you are looking for Zeiss grade accessories, pricewise it will cost you something 10x times more and when talking on such precise and high grade attachments for your lenses, Variable ND filters are not the options - you should have bunch of fixed ND filters, with finest and highest grade glass and coating.This one does same if not more as similar Variable ND filters for $50-70, Slim design, so if you stack it on top of standard protective UV filter, it doesn't generate vignet.Glass is fine and high grade - no significant distortion for most $700-$1200 lenses, which I think is not bad, comparable to lens distortion values itself. Again, if you are such picky for distortions and using Zeiss Otus or even Milvus Primes for over $3000, then you should afford getting fixed ND filters from same Zeiss :)If you have DSLR, your backpack is almost heavy enough, so instead of carrying bunch of fixed ND filters for regular outdoor shootings (and weather is coming up and more bright sunny days we'll have :) ), Variable ND filters are desirable lens attachments and for most of APS-C and Full Frame cameras with sensors common 24 MP sensors, this one is one of the optimal solution.BTW, after great medium range tripod from K&F Concept, this is another camera accessory I've got and I like both - great manufacturing quality, nite and clean, functions as it should be and excellent Price/Quality ratio....

Fit's and functions properly. However if you really make it dark it does cause a purple color shift. This is not an uncommon problem in all but the over $100 filters. Still a very good item.

I got this to put on a lens baby and use for IR photography. It takes beautiful pictures!

You get color cast, but it's a lot better than Neewer, which came broken

Bought this to photograph the eclipse. Worked well for that. 4/5 due to the lack of stops, and lack of marks/etching to indicate approx ND level. Like I said, worked well, but if you want any idea of what your actual exposure values are you'll need to mark it ahead of time at a minimum.

Love this filter, the case is a too big and bulky for the actually filter.
