My second K&F Filter, good price, good performance, this filter is a bit subtle
I'm using this filter on my Q2Monochrome. Why would I want less contrast on a Leica lens when I paid so much for those highly discernable Leica lenses. For this filter does bring down contrast and produce halo effects like a single coated manual lens from back in the day. Well. sometimes, especially in Black and White photography, I feel like the Leica Summilux lens on the Q2 is too sharp. I can correct for color variations with color filters but it is harder to correct for less sharpness in camera. This filter does two things, produces less contrast between areas, between boundries or edges of things, and gives them a softer feel. It is also capable of produces halos or glows around specular highlights or bight spot background lights. That's when the halo effect or glow seems to work best. So this filter gets five stars for what it intends to do, it executes well.
