Great filter, no loss in Image quality, no change in colour. Very happy.

Nice filter, I use it slightly overexposed to give that cinematic look

Great little filter made specifically for Cinematic effect.
I'm a professional photographer. I had written a rather lengthy 5 star review, but it was rejected for reasons I am not aware of. I recommend this filter if you are looking to soften the visual impact of your photos and video.

I'm a big fan of the magnetic filter kits - this is actually my second one from K&F Concept. The magnets are strong enough to provide secure hold, but are still easy to change without fumbling or fear of dropping. p

These diffusion filters create nice pretty effects in my test shots. I love how they look with warm light, but they create some really fun and cool effects with colorful studio-type lighting as well. I really am happy with this set, and I would recommend it.

This is my initial review for the K&F Concept Magnetic Black Soft Diffusion, and I'll continue updating it as I am using it.

I am so excited to have this K&F Concept Diffusion. I received it this evening and I am in love. I have ordered similar diffuser from a different brand before from B&H and have been disappointed with it, but this one is a whole different story. I love the magnetic feature, it's so intuitive and stupid easy to use. It is true to the picture, maybe even prettier! It's very high quality and it looks exactly like advertised. I love the details, I am always trying to find great deals like this one. I find it very well priced for the quality that it offers, everything about it is screaming premium. It feels very well made, durable and easy to use. I really enjoy the design and functionality. At my age I am always searching for products and items that can make my life easier and better in whatever way. This product has improved my quality of life, I just keep recommending it to friends and family, I will defiantly do another order soon. I am extremely satisfied with it and I do recommend it 100 percent. Definitely a great experience, no complaints whatsoever. All around great product and worth every penny!

Magnetic filters are just plain awesome, especially when they include a magnetic lens cap. K&F concept's 1/4 black soft diffusion filter provides a hefty dose of the 'CineBloom' effect in a magnetic, quick-swap system that includes a lens cap.

Installation is simple and begins with installing the threaded magnetic ring adapter. Once the magnetic adapter is installed, the filter is attached via magnetic attraction, as is the lens cap afterwards.

The filter looks great, with zero distortion or color shift. These are pretty slim so I didn't experience any issues with vignetting.

The reason I took off a star is that the lens cap is fairly difficult to remove. The magnetic forces are ridiculously strong, too much so. Removing the lens cap is difficult, an I usually end up having to use so much force that I end up running a finger across the lens once the lens cap finally budges.

Other than that, its another quality filter kit from K&F concepts. Buy with confidence.

I have worked with K&F Concept filters in the past and generally had good experiences with them. They're good, mid-range quality filters at (usually) a budget price. I haven't worked with any black diffusion filters prior to this one so I have no basis against which to compare, but so far it seems to work as designed and seems to be made very well.

In a nutshell, this type of filter softens light a bit, causing some gentle halos around light sources, without impacting image sharpness or detail. Where I have seen the most noticeable impact is in images where there otherwise would be a lot of shadows and contrast; instead of stark contrast and strong shadows, the filter has the effect of brightening up the shadows somewhat and creating smoother color gradients. Sure, this can be done in software after the fact, but it is a lot easier to do this at the time the image is taken and it certainly is a lot less work.

The filter is very easy to install. This is my first magnetic filter and it is as easy to attach to my camera as I could have hoped. The threaded ring attaches to the lens in the same manner as a step ring or another filter, and the filter itself just snaps securely into place due to the magnetics. Removing the filter is just as simple, especially if you choose to leave the magnetic ring in place on the lens.

The assembly seems to be well made. I have had filters in the past that have been poorly constructed and rattle in the frames when shaken, or have been mildly blemished, or just felt cheap. This filter has none of those issues and appears to be well made.

This is a nice black diffusion filter. It's easy to install and use, and it just works. I will be using it more in the coming weeks.

It is a “magical” filter for portraits. It softens skin tones and imperfections.
I wish I had known about it years ago.
Absolutely love it. Highly recommend.

Please note that a 1/4 diffusion filter is a fairly strong diffuser, so make sure that you want that level of softening for your shots.

If so, this is a great option at this price point. The build quality feels solid, and I did not see any flaws in the optics. The magnetic attachment between the ring (which screws in as normal), the filter, and the lens cap works surprisingly well. I wish this were universal, although if your camera takes a lot of abuse I would still go with the traditional screw-in filters. A good smack will dislodge everything.

I normally use 1/8 strength diffusion filters which just lowers the contrast a bit and adds some bloom to the highlights. I was shooting a project where I wanted a bit more of a dreamy look to it so I wanted to try this as it should be just a bit strong than a 1/8th strength but not make my footage look too dreamy looking. It did indeed do just that. I noticed so real color cast with this filter. I got stronger bloom in the highlights and just gave my footage a softer more film like look.

Just be sure you want a stronger effect that a 1/4 filter can give you. If it's too strong K&F does make a 1/8 strength black diffusion filter that is excellent.

The magnetic system works very well. I wish all filters used this type of easy to use quick release system.
