58mm 1/4 Black Mist filter, high definition, waterproof anti-reflection green film, Nano-Dazzle series
SKU: KF01.2146
I own around a dozen different filters developed by K&F and I'm a big fan of their UV filters in particular. If you know, you know. I've only recently become aware that they are offering FX filters, so I was very excited to try this. Friends: this filter works. Period. Not only does it add a nice haloing effect to your subject's faces, but it uniformly softens textures throughout the image. Why is that a big deal? Because as we enter grad portrait season, this filter eases the effort of performing touch ups to acne and scars. Rather than endlessly tuning masking and fixes with blotchy results, this filter cuts that workload in half, while your edits remain consistent with the rest of the unedited image. This simple filter is a game-changer!

Just used this for the first time on a corporate interview style shoot a few days ago, on an older subject who was concerned about their appearance on-camera. I have nice lenses that are VERY sharp, and tend to pick up and accentuate every tiny detail. The 1/4 strength was perfect for proving just a bit of flattering softness, without losing sharpness or contrast or looking overly "glowy."
I won't use this for every shoot, but to add a bit of character or softness to portraits, certain interviews, wedding footage, etc., it hits the mark.
Quality is top notch. Smooth threading on and off my lens, comes well padded in an appropriately sized case. I have a full set of big name Black Pro Mist filters, and these are every bit as good.
Would recommend these without hesitation!

This filter produces a very subtle cinematic look while blurring and softening still images and moving video. When it comes to shooting individuals, there is a discernible difference, even though it is not a significant one.
It makes the skin somewhat supple and silky, and the backgrounds are not as razor-sharp as before, especially with my Sony A7IV. I got the 82mm size with step-down rings to use it on all my lenses.
Overall, having this filter in your camera bag is a good idea, but it is beneficial if you take portrait photos or want a softer touch with your videos.

I like the effect this filter has on video. It tends to soften out the shadows without losing detail, and makes the scenes feel a bit more cohesive. The 1/4 filter provides a good balance where it is enough to get the softening effect without being too obvious. The lighting you use with this filter really has an impact on the result though.
The build quality of the K&F filters is fantastic for the price. The threads are cut well and don't bind at all, even on the larger size. Overall, I'm very pleased with this filter.

Have a lot of K&F filters - really, a LOT of filters in general - and this one is good quality with a solid plastic case.
1/4 is subtle, perhaps too subtle for some things and so I never bought one before. I could see using this more because of that.

This filter creates such a nice, subtle difference that every filmmaker will appreciate. It's not big and over-the-top. If you show your friends who aren't into cameras, they probably won't even see the difference, but you'll definitely notice a difference in your footage. It blooms the highlights so nicely and creates such a pleasing look without creating any kind of unwanted color cast on the image. Likewise, the build quality of this filter is great and I appreciate the little ridges on the sides of the filter for gripping it more easily when taking it on and off. Overall, I'm really happy with this and I would definitely recommend it.

There's always a more expensive and nicer filter to get. I do like the K&F filters. for the price range their making nice filters and not just offering one filter thats overkill. I like to stack these kind of filters to get what I want. As time goes on I keep getting picker about my shots and I'm just a novice.

K&F Concepts does it again! Watch video for details. 1/4 is the perfect filter for that dreamy look.. not to much and not to little.. it.s just right.. This filter will take the edge of the crisp video look to your films and will give a nice glow to highlights and softens the color blacks as well.. great filter... I love it.
