As a landscape photographer, I found this filter system very interesting. Unlike screw filters, these filters are applied and removed in a fraction of a second, while unlike panel filters, they are much less bulky, lighter and of course much quicker to install. PACKAGING AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL The filters are supplied in a comfortable and really well behaved four compartment pencil case. The case on the back has a tear-off buckle that allows us to attach it to our tripod or pants, and also a metal ring so that it can be attached to our backpack, to the tripod column or wherever we prefer. Finally, the zipper of the pencil case is rainproof or water leakage. The filters are contained and protected in special bags to avoid possible damage. CONSTRUCTION These magnetic filters from K&F Concept's Nano series are made of optical glass, which is perfectly resistant to water, oil and dust. The outer frame is made of lightly knurled aluminum to allow for an excellent grip. They are extremely thin and even if all three filters are mounted at the same time (UV, CPL and ND1000), the thickness is extremely small. UV FILTER In the photos I took with the UV filter, there is no color shift, no loss of sharpness and detail, and no dominance. POLARIZING FILTER This polarizing filter provides a pleasing overall contrast to the image, increasing the contrast between individual colors and saturating them without exaggeration. In addition, it offers a very light, warm dominant that it doesn't mind in person, but can easily be corrected in post-production. FILTER ND1000 The first thing that strikes you when using this ND filter is that it produces a slight - but present - hot dominant. Personally I think it's not a problem as it can be removed with one click in post production. After all, the overall sharpness as well as the details of the image are not changed. CPL+ND1000 FILTER I think the CPL+ND1000 coupled is very interesting. In fact, the effect of polarization reduces the hot dominant of the ND1000 filter and also provides a pleasant saturation and a soft overall contrast between the colors of the final image. In terms of sharpness and detail, there is no significant deterioration. On the other hand, there is a slight vignetting. PRACTICALITY The K&F Concept Nano Series Magnetic Filter Kit is extremely practical. The pencil case that contains the filters has a compact size that allows us to carry it in our backpack while sacrificing very little space. The weight is extremely light, which is very useful for those who go on long hikes, where the weight of the equipment can be felt after several hours. Installing and removing filters is nothing short of lightning. You can easily mount all three filters in seconds and remove them in as many seconds as possible. The hold of the magnets is really good and therefore there is no fear of finding yourself with filters that fall during the recording or transport phase. WHO TO RECOMMEND IN CONCLUSION, I would strongly recommend this filter set, excellent value for money: - those who are looking for a first filter set to experience creativity; - those looking for an excellent ratio between quality, size and weight; - those looking for maximum practicality in recording and composition.

love using filters, the polarizing filter in forests or on the coast I find it essential even when there is harsh light when low clouds are moving and in rivers, waterfalls and coast I love the ND filter. In situations where the polarizing filter or ND filter is not needed, I like to use ultraviolet to protect the lens. The truth is sometimes awkward to wear them, especially in adverse situations where, for example, it's cold and you're wearing gloves, there's a lot of wind, you're very close to a waterfall, and there's spray, etc. It has also happened to me once that I put the filter on the target for a while and then took it out so I found it interesting to try the K&F magnetic filters, I find it a comfortable system with a good one Price-performance ratio. The package includes a case with the 3 filters (a polarizer, a 10-step ND and UV) and a screw adapter, the case can be placed on the belt to always have the filters at hand. Using it is pretty simple, just attach the threaded adapter and place the filter on top as it's magnetic catches it instantly and from there it doesn't move. If I want to change the filter so easily it's as easy as removing and inserting you can watch the video where I record the simple process. The good thing about this system is that both the adapter and the filters are thin and you can also place two filters at the same time, e.g. B. the polarizer and ND to remove moving clouds with polarized light, eliminating unnecessary reflections. In summary, I liked that the system can change the filter so quickly when I'm traveling or in uncomfortable situations, I would appreciate it.

This filter system is really great for a quick on/off in certain photo situations. I ordered it for my 24mm lens. Disappointment came quickly. Because the filters gave me a circular image on my monitor :(. Unfortunately, that's a pity. Well, I think for small-angle photography, e.g. 50mm or so, it could be a good system, because the quality of the glasses is high in my eyes, but how said, only usable to a limited extent Went back K & F rectangular filters were added.

I treated myself to a set of magnetic lens filters and bought this cap here as well. If you often use filters for photography, you should think about getting a magnetic set!

I've wanted to try these K&F Concept Magnetic Filters since they were announced. I'm glad I bought these. They are great, super easy to use and swap out in the field. Simply attach the magnetic ring to your lens and then it's easy to attach and swap out the filters easily. No hassle of having to screw the filters on and off, this is totally a game changer in my opinion, I own a bit of K&F gear and these are great quality as always, I have the k&f square filter kits, but that's a lot easier, the included case is really nice too, they're not cheap but you get what you pay for, I'm very happy overall

Great filter, very easy to install. They could have left out the UV filter and added an ND filter instead. UV filter is superfluous and nobody needs it :)

liked the fact that they are magnetic because it's much quicker to swap or remove one for the other without having to screw them on. I wear UV all the time to protect the lens and sometimes when I want to pull off a few steps light or there is water I leave the CPL on. They are of good quality and reasonable price. I tried the variables and there is no color; much better this one and I forget about the vignetting. The ND 1000 is also very suitable for long exposures. I miss the fact that the magnetic metal cover is not included in the kit. I ended up buying a loose ND 64 filter so I could have it and love the speed of having the camera ready.
