It was fun to play with while taking photos and it felt great and looked great. I'm really excited to put it in my camera bag and look forward to trying more in the future!

I was thinking a bit of a gadget and a good promo made me buy this kit. After several tests with very different luminosity circumstances (clear sky with white clouds then very blue sky with strong luminosity), I am very surprised by the quality and efficiency of this DNG filter. The brightness is well down without disturbing the colors. No burned area, the whole photo is easily usable in post processing. I highly recommend it.

Delivery was very quick. Unbeatable for the price... Everything is of high quality. I can also not confirm some criticism that the gradient filter is less foggy towards the middle. Been cleaned up for me. If the slot is a bit difficult, then loosen the 4 screws on the filter holder a little bit and everything runs like butter!!! No color cast on the filters! Great bags included... polarizing filter history, simply screw an existing one onto the lens and then the filter holder on it. What more could you ask for without having to spend €400-500 right away... Full marks from me.

System with excellent value for money. The filter holder system makes it easy to frame before installing the ND 1000 filter.

I am using this on my XT3 16-80 f4 and it's perfect match for me when I need to record in HLG during bright daylight. It has almost no impact on sharpness (you would need to pixel-peep to absolute details and even then the difference is minuscule, makes no visible difference in 4k video though) and no visible color shift.

I bought these Freewell range of filters as they were one of the first to use a magnet rather then a thread to attach the filter to the lens, and this makes life so much easier when swapping filters

Easy to swap quality filters. Only downside is the lens cap will take the filter off when you remove it (if you put the cap over a filter on your lens), but other than that, I love the ability to throw filters on and off quickly. I can also use my older screw-on filters on top of these, so I can stack a magnetic CPL, magnetic ND16 and a screw-on ND1000 for a long exposure shot (as an example).
They are very good quality with no more color shift than any other filter on the market.
Also as a tip, I bought the largest filter I needed and bought the freewill step up rings for my other lenses. This way I only needed to buy one set of filters. The step up rings from Freewell have the magnetic base built in.
One last thing, the filters now come with 2 base rings, one with a UV filter and one that is just the open ring (no glass).
When I received the ND filter I could not get it to work right with the open base ring that I attached to my lens. Then I noticed the UV base ring was already attached to the ND filter in the package (they are so thin I could not tell), so I was trying to attach one base ring on top of another, so I just separated the UV base ring and put it away and viola the ND filter fit perfectly into the open base ring. I do not like putting extra glass on my lens, so I dont use UV filters.

I received the gradient filter today and tested it right away. The quality is great and I was able to install it in my Filter Puk with the existing 67mm internal thread on the outside. This is of course a nice extra and saves you the space for all the packaging in your backpack. Speaking of packaging, the filter comes in plastic packaging with foam padding and I had it firmly in there. BUT it had a fingerprint on it! But it was easy to remove with a lens cleaning cloth.
