Far exceeded expectations, producing a really nice slightly soft focus.
I really wasn't sure of what to expect from this filter. I mean, I know what it should have done technically but I have been fooled before with poor quality results and not knowing this brand I was prepared to be let down but I certainly have not been. This filter provides a beautifully softening effect that does not so much outright blur but rather seems to maintain a decent focus while creating a very soft hint of haze. It is very delicate and is a really nice tool to have in a portrait photographer's arsenal. It also has a nice effect on candle and sharp points of lights, creating a softened hue or aura around the light source. It looks a little "dreamy", if that helps to paint the picture.

I used this filter with my primary Nikon portrait lens and I intend to continue shooting with it to learn more about it but to this point, it has been a rather exciting discovery.

I will say that, although secure enough, I do find that this filter does not fit my lense threads as precisely as I am more accustom to. Something seems off but they are not binding, so I will leave well enough alone.

I am very impressed with this filter and think it fairly priced.

Definitely recommended.
