This pair of diffusion filters is the perfect set for someone who is just starting out or looking to add some options to their camera bag. Diffusion filters are very subjective and, similar to seasoning according to a recipe, depend on the individual's tastes and preferences. That's why I really like the fact that there is not just one diffusion filter, but a second one with a different performance. This actually gives you three options as the filters are also stacked and combined, albeit with much greater softness in the image.

I tried these in three configurations and have included some example images and videos to show others how this can affect the image in different situations. I found these effects to be very enjoyable, even when stacked at the extreme end. And as a big bonus, there is almost no noticeable color cast with these filters, which is not usually the case with more “budget” level filters. These filters far exceed their price, especially considering you're buying two of them.

These did a good job particularly when the images contain obvious light sources, such as in the night example. The lights are enveloped in a wonderful glow that gives the image a certain something and softens the harshness in a pleasant way without removing the details in the image.

I really enjoyed using these filters and can't wait to continue trying them out in different situations to see how they work. I recommend keeping them in your camera bag and trying them out on all your shoots just to see what can happen.

Since these filters only fit properly into their housing when stacked, be careful not to overtighten them. This also applies to mounting on the camera, otherwise they will get stuck. However, this applies to every filter brand and is not specific to this one. I only mention it because they have to be combined to fit into the case. Of course, you can always use a different case if you don't like this aspect.

By the way: K&F has always impressed me with its products. I own several now and have not been disappointed with any of them. And at the usual prices, it's worth adding to your collection even if you don't use it all the time, to try something new or to inspire some creativity when you're a little bored.
