Features
  • * The 1/4 black mist filter can soften the wrinkles, spots, pores, etc. of human skin, and the more delicate, plump, beautiful and hazy movie effect can be better realized. The filter focus effect is relatively light, and the filter focus range is moderate, which is more practical , It is also suitable for environments with little contrast between light and shadow.
  • * Top-level optical glass, double-sided 24-layer anti-reflection coating on the front and back of the lens, which can effectively reduce the reflection of the filter surface and avoid problems such as ghosting
  • * After the glass is optically polished, the surface is coated with a high-tech film. "Moldproof", "Waterproof", "Scratchproof" and "Oilproof". While having the characteristics of hard scraping, it will not have any impact on the image quality, even if it is stained with water droplets or oil, it can be easily removed
  • * On the raw material of optical glass, precision grinding and double-sided polishing ensure the stability of the molecular structure. It will not affect the sharpness of the telephoto lens and ensure high-definition imaging. The frame is made of aviation-grade aluminum with a thickness of only 3.3mm and a thin frame. The unique design ensures that consumers and the wide-angle end will not experience vignetting
  • * Comes with three vacuum microfiber cleaning cloths to ensure that the coating of optical instruments such as lenses/filters will not be damaged, and dust will not fall off

Good budget black mist
I've collected a set of mist and black mist filters, having found that I like the ability to adjust the strength of the filter. I ordered 1/4 to fill in the gap between "obvious" 1/2 and very subtle 1/8. This one specifically is a nice quality filter (no significant degradation to the image beyond what's expected) with some nice features (strong knurling on the rim, smudge resistant). There are definitely higher quality glass filters available from the big name brands, but this one does a good job of providing that "soft aesthetic" feel for neon or nostalgia type photography.

A quality filter that delivers on its promises.
My 135mm and 40mm Sigma Art lenses are extremely sharp. Some would say clinically sharp, maybe too sharp for portraits. My personal experience has been that’s not always the case, but I sometimes find myself wishing I could dial them back slightly. This K&F Concept Black Diffusion 1/4 filter does just that, almost like magic.

The effect is subtly-different from applying a similar effect in software. I like that the effect with the filter on the lens is noticeable, but without being too obvious. It’s an excellent compromise that seems to work well for me. Deciding precisely when to use this filter will be an ongoing learning experience that I’m looking forward to.

One thing worth noting is that the effect when on the 135mm lens is not exactly the same as when on the 40mm lens. That might be one reason for the different strength options.

Physically, there’s a lot to like. Construction is solid, the fit is precise and the coating is doing its job. A solid five stars for function, quality and value at the current price.

Very good quality at an exceptional price
I use to make my living, in San Francisco, shooting photography and creating art. So, I tend to be very demanding of my equipment. But those demands are tempered by reason.

This black diffusion filter, with very smooth threads and solid construction, by its design nature, alters the image your sensor, and glass, would normally make. And that's good. Today's camera's tend to be super sharp and they create crispy images.

Sometimes, to get the proper feel that you're going for, you want to knock down that sharpness, and specular highlights, a bit. That's where this filter comes in.

It does a great job of almost imperceptibly taking the edge off.

I can see myself using this filter a lot for night shots and for video shooting.

5 stars. One heck of a good price for a filter that performs very well.

Excellent effect
Not going to lie, I look like an idiot buying this filter -- and you likely will too. I spent hours watching youtube videos to find the sharpest lenses possible on a budget, only to spend more money to make that lens less sharp. However, I'm a sucker for trends, including the popularity of film photography and the accompanying halation. The filter adds a nice element to night urban photography, especially the bright lights. It's a look that -- as far as I know -- can't be created in digital editing. I've bought a few other cheaper black mist style filters for my point & shoot cameras, but this is the first quality filter I picked up for my "real" camera. I went with K&F because I've always been happy with their quality/cost balance. This filter is no exception. The diffusion is pleasant and consistent across the image. The filter is thin, and it screws on to my step-up ring easily. It also comes with a nice case. Overall I will enjoy adding this to my tool bag.

Nice special effects camera filter, high quality nanometer multicoated optical glass.
I feel this is a very nice black mist camera filter for my DSLR. It is made of high quality optical glass with multiple layers of ultra-thin, nanometer coatings and ultra-light materials. The frame is very light and thin compared to some of the other filters I have. This filter is a 1/4 diffusion/mist and the changes from a normal, non-filtered lens, are minimal. The same filter is available in lesser and greater strengths. But, I thought 1/4 was a good place to start experimenting and for general use.

The price for this filter is very good considering you are getting a high-quality, multi-coated glass filter. In my different experimental shots, I think this filter has a lot of potential for portraits and still-life. I'm also wanting to try it out on some more macro shots. I would certainly recommend this camera filter for anyone still shooting with a DSLR and not their phone. ;-)

Filter that makes things less sharp
If you want to know what shooting with this filter looks like and you wear glasses, just let your glasses get really dirty with drywall dust. Every becomes softer and less detailed. If that the look you are after, this filter provides it in spades. It's a well made filter and doesn't cause any optical issues (apart from the intentional softening). No color shifts or added flares. With the 82mm version I saw no noticeable vignetting either. The knurling is well done as well. I'm impressed by the quality of this filter and will be looking at other K&F filters in the future.

Outstanding quality. Just the right amount of softness for a ¼ black diffusion. Superior filter box.
This ¼ black diffusion filter from K&F is a very high quality optical filter that provides a subtle but noticeable amount of softening to your photos which renders skin tones with a beautiful softness that doesn't look fake. Highlights have a soft glow/bloom and the overall contrast is slightly reduced.

Unfortunately there is no industry standard on exactly how much diffusion a ⅛, ¼, ½ filter should give the image so each manufacturer decides for himself how much diffusion to add to each filter in their line. I like how much diffusion K&F have put on this filter as opposed to other manufacturers whose ¼ diffusion filters apply too much diffusion.

Another indicator of quality is the plastic boxes K&F decided to provide with their filters. They are superior to other companies' boxes and a pleasure to use. I have two different styles of boxes from K&F and they are both outstanding.

High quality lens
A long time ago I bought a Super VHS camcorder, and first thing, recorded my parents. I plugged it in to the TV and played it back. My mother said "That's no good." I asked why. Her response was, "The picture is too clear. Who wants to see themselves that clearly?"
Zoom ahead around 40 years and I have a Nikon full frame DSLR. Take a picture of someone from across the room, and you can see every pore. That's really not necessary.
Enter the diffusion lens.
This one is built beautifully. The glass is almost invisible, and the ring is sturdy and has ridges for easy gripping. And the storage case is nice, too.
It's a 1.4 diffusion filter, so the effect is subtle. But it is there, and it works.
Great filter at a good price.

I trust the K&F brand even more now than before
I own around a dozen different filters developed by K&F and I'm a big fan of their UV filters in particular. If you know, you know. I've only recently become aware that they are offering FX filters, so I was very excited to try this. Friends: this filter works. Period. Not only does it add a nice haloing effect to your subject's faces, but it uniformly softens textures throughout the image. Why is that a big deal? Because as we enter grad portrait season, this filter eases the effort of performing touch ups to acne and scars. Rather than endlessly tuning masking and fixes with blotchy results, this filter cuts that workload in half, while your edits remain consistent with the rest of the unedited image. This simple filter is a game-changer!

Quality on-par with big name brands at a better price.
Just used this for the first time on a corporate interview style shoot a few days ago, on an older subject who was concerned about their appearance on-camera. I have nice lenses that are VERY sharp, and tend to pick up and accentuate every tiny detail. The 1/4 strength was perfect for proving just a bit of flattering softness, without losing sharpness or contrast or looking overly "glowy."

I won't use this for every shoot, but to add a bit of character or softness to portraits, certain interviews, wedding footage, etc., it hits the mark.

Quality is top notch. Smooth threading on and off my lens, comes well padded in an appropriately sized case. I have a full set of big name Black Pro Mist filters, and these are every bit as good.

Would recommend these without hesitation!
