So, let's start by saying what these filters DO NOT (all, any brand). These filters do not remove light pollution. If that were the case, one could photograph the Milky Way from the center of Rome or Milan and that is of course not possible. Light pollution, if there is, cannot be removed in any way. So what do these filters do? The street lamps of the cities almost all give a light on the dark orange that gives an annoying dominance to the landscape and the sky. These filters do nothing more than CONTROBALANCE this dominant one with a colder color and as a result you have photographs marked with a much less dominant orange and with blue skies. This is what makes these filters and in this case it does just fine.

Tried the filter a few times with landscape shots. Worked really well. Not affecting image quality or producing colour cast. Very happy with the product and purchase.

A brilliant lens adapter and a MUST have if you want to take astrophotography to the next level. This lens also comes with an extended warranty. All you have to do is register on their website to extend your warranty.

The filter comes in a nice protective packaging and arrived in perfect condition. It is well made and represents a very good value compared to more expensive options/brands. From my testing, the filter density is near/exactly 10 stops. There is a noticeable, but moderate blue color cast with the 10 stop, which can be corrected in post. I did not notice any loss of sharpness.

That filter is really amazing! No scratch at all. I tried it for sunset, sunrise and daylight long exposure shot. I don't see any issues. If something happened, I will update this review. There is no color cast. Very Excellent quality. Great Affordable!

Loving this filter! Fits perfectly in my holder and greatly reduced the amount of light pollution and makes the stars really pop. Highly recommended it to anyone looking to bring out their astrophotography

Much cheaper than other brands and the result is very good. Tested with a Nikkor 24-70 F2.8g N and a D800e in various night shots, and the result is very good, reducing the level of light pollution significantly without changing definition, sharpness and exposure. I have also tried it when shooting at night with a GoPro via an adapter and the result is very good.

I haven't tried that out right now and am still trying it, but I've compared this shade to a (much more expensive) Kase 150mm filter which makes me believe it'll be fine. It's really well packaged and has a brown leather pouch to stash the filter, which actually fits pretty neatly in my Lowepro filter pouch - I think I'll keep it in the pouch as well, not just to protect it, but I will can easily be seen in the dark! This glass filter fits my Nisi and Lee holder systems perfectly, giving it five stars for the build quality and the fact that it looks like it is doing what I need it to be. I will adjust this review as I discover something different after taking the first batch of photos with it.
