Usual K&F High Quality
Over the past year or so, I’ve tried maybe a half dozen K&F filters uniformly finding them to be among the best I’ve ever experienced. This high density ND 1000 has met my expectations of excellence that this brand has now established with me.
There’s little to say other than it’s thinner than other filters of any sort meaning it has less of a chance of creating unwanted refractions once mounted. Like all filters, it must be used alone. If added to an existing UV or clear filter many used as a lens protector, the two can and likely will work to degrade image quality. This refraction issue is a good reason not to mount the UV or clear filters as a lens protector. A lens shade works almost as well as a protector but won’t interfere with a filter.
In use, this ND 1000 does filter to 10 stops (eyeball estimate) without affecting the color or introducing other unwanted effects. Like so many things photographic, the good stuff costs but also performs.
