DO NOT BUY THIS CHEAP GARBAGE. I was out filming late afternoon and could not get the ND filter low enough without vignette in the corners then the big black X.

I needed a variable filter to cut down the "digital" sharpness on my Sony a6700 for filmmaking. This filter helps soften the overall image quality. The aspect I really enjoy about it is that I can adjust the filter to make a scene appear lighter or darker without adjusting my aperture. This is very convenient on film shoots when I don't have a lot of time for set ups. Image quality is excellent.

I’ve been struggling with using manual settings on my camera while shooting outdoor but since I got this ND filter … I got no more issues. The best part actually is that the quality of the videos and pictures made with this filter … are still amazing and high quality. The results based on the price are pretty impressive. That’s why I took ND filters from K&F for all my lenses

I put the filter on my Tamron 18-300mm
At 50 to 70mm it was still blurry at medium and min settings honestly I wanted it to work
But I’m returning and decided to just use a polarizing filter instead, camera is sony a6000

This brand makes some good stuff at an affordable price, and this is one of those items. If you are getting into shooting video, then an ND filter is important to allow you to keep your shutter angle at 180 degrees. Having a variable ND makes it much easier with the changing light to simply rotate the filter where you need it. However, you do have to be careful at the far ends where an "x" pattern can emerge.
This is a good filter to practice on and easy to use. I personally like filters that have hard stops to prevent the rotating glass to cause the "x" pattern. But, these are totally fine to use as well. I got this to particular filter to practice with my phone and it certainly adds value. I also find having several of these and keeping them on the lens saves time.

This is a variable nd filter that works well.
The only point I can make is that the ring has a fairly hard and not very fluid excursion.
I am satisfied with the product.

I’ve been using these filters for years they are great quality and over time the are cheap enough to replace when they get scratches, picture quality is great and they take your filmmaking to the next level

I picked this for a 30mm lens on my APSC camera. This is a value-priced filter but the performance is above par with other variable ND filter offerings in this range. Works well for my purposes when I occasionally have to reach for an ND filter to help achieve the desired aperture I am looking for. When looking at filters I always go to K7F first these days. Their quality is top-notch and they have a variety of ND Filters at almost every price level.

I picked this up as I'd been wanting to experiment with ND filters but didn't want to invest a ton of money. Overall, I'm happy with it so far. Haven't noticed any color shift or noticeable image softening and it's been extremely beneficial on bright days that exceed my maximum shutter speed. It threads on smoothly and is well built. The only thing that bothers me is the lack of hard stops or labeling on the filter - I'm a bit fanatical about settings and like to know what I'm on at all times - this really shouldn't matter as I'm just trying to get a desired shutter-speed, but having to count dots to know what my filter is at is bothersome. Having that been said, this is definitely not a deal-breaker, and it's been a fun filter to use.
