49mm ND1000 Magnetic Lens Filter Nano-Xcel Series - HD Waterproof Scratch-Resistant Anti-Reflection
SKU: SKU.1754
For two years this filter has been my loyal companion on every photo tour. The processing is absolutely great and together with the really stable storage box an absolute must-have!

Disappointed by a previous ND, I bought this ND1000 and I am satisfied with it. The screwing and unscrewing is without constraint and the rendering is very correct, no distortion or radiation, and the colors are preserved.

I needed a more travel friendly set of filters to take with me on my hikes that would be too cumbersome to use my square ones. Having these filters in it's own soft pouch was perfect and it didn't take up much room in my camera cube. The magnets were strong as they held on while I was setting up my composition - sometimes in the rain and while on uneven ground.
UPDATE 10/26/21: After over a month, I've already lost a CPL filter. Make sure the filter is flush in either the UV adapter or adapter ring. I was busily setting up my camera on a cliffside when I accidentally bumped my tripod and the CPL filter fell off.

An ND1000 filter is particularly interesting for landscape photography. This can be used to soften waterfalls, for example. I have used this filter several times on vacation for this purpose and have not been disappointed. I have attached an example photo. (River with lateral water drainage) Image quality is consistent throughout the shot. The darkening is also uniform. Have fun taking pictures!

I am very pleased with this system and the quality of the filter lenses. It is wonderful for very quick changing of filters. Unfortunately I accidentally lost the ND filter the first time I went out and did not realise it until I was back home. My friend had zipped the bag they come in, and I, thinking it was still open and more concentrated on trying the one on the camera. unzipped it. So during my wanderings, the ND fell out. I did eventually manage to replace it, and received a magnetic lens protective cover as part of the order. I am made up now. I do recommend this system and it has the filters that I use, perfect.

Molto comodi con il meccanismo magnetico. Più volte quelli a vite mi sono rimasti incastrati nelle lenti. Con il ring magnetico sono veloci da cambiare e usare. Quelli di 82mm sono compatibili con il sistema Kase che offre più scelta di filtri ma a un prezzo più alto. Io ho un mix ora dei due brand e mi trovo bene. Per qualità prezzo i filtri K&F si posizione in un ottimo posto. Io li raccomando vivamente

These are so easy to use and the quality is fantastic - both the build quality and the picture quality. I can't see any colour cast whatsoever from both the CPL & ND filter. I think you would really need to pixel peep to see any sharpness difference, and even then I'm not sure there is.
Being able to attach the filters to both the UV filter and filter ring is really clever - I keep the UV on my 24-70 F4 and the filter thread ring on 16-35 F4 so it makes it even faster to clip on the filters no matter what lens I use.
Since the ND isn't variable, there's no dark X. And no vignetting at 16mm, unlike when I use my square filter set.
The downsides that I see at the moment:
- You can't replace the filter thread on its own, so if you break or lose it, you have to buy a new set. I contacted support but was asked to pay $16 for delivery of a new thread....
- The range of NDs isn't as big as a square filter system (yet) and again I'm not sure if you can buy them as singles or whether it's just part of these kits

This is a solution for one of my pet peeves, taking filters off and on in the field. I always carry a CPL filter with me when doing a shoot, but it is difficult to take them off and on in the back of a Range Rover on the move. This one is protecting my Olympus 300mm f4.0 lens (UV) and allows me to quickly switch to the CPL when I need it. I ordered another set for my 72mm lenses. Great packaging, good carrying case and I'll be able to cover all my field lenses with the two sets. Extremely impressed with the ease of rotating the CPL filter. My lens cap stays on with no problem and can be either on the CPL or the bare magnetic mount. The magnet is very strong, the filters stay where you want them until you want them off.

Typical of my experience with K&F products, these are excellent filters. They are every bit as good as a couple of other, higher priced, popular and similar products. No color casts, well manufactured, and simply work as described. Save your money and buy these over the more hyped brand names.
