77mm CPL Filter Circular Polarizer Filter with Lens Cap Optical Glass Ultra Slim 18 Multi-Layer for Camera Lens Nano-Klear Series
SKU: KF01.1317V5
I enjoy K&F products for the most part and this filter 'set' is no exception.
At 52mm, it's nice and compact. You get a filter, a filter cap, a strap, and a case and cleaning cloth.
The CPL operated very smoothly with no slop, and the filter improved every image I took with it.
Can't go wrong with this filter. It's a keeper.

This works as expected. I did accidentally over-tighten it and had a slight panic that it would be permanently attached to my lens, but did manage to remove it.
Once secure, the front polarizer does smoothly spin to achieve the desired effect at different angles. And it's great to have an extra lens cap with a strap to keep it from being lost.
The filter seems to be of high quality and hopefully will resist scratches.

K&F Concept 52mm Circular Polarizer Filter with Lens Cap Cleaning Cloth Is well made and easy to use. Feels very durable but light weight. It looks good on my camera set up. It’s a great product for the money.

The CP filter is shipped in a nice plastic case with a lens cap and keeper. While I keep unused filters in a pouch, the cap comes in handy. I like to keep the cap on as an extra safety precaution. K&F also provides a microfiber cloth in the package.
The first thing I noticed was that the filter is thin and light weight. Visually, the threads appeared clean without any obvious imprefections. It threaded smoothly on to my 49 mm FujiFilm adaptor. Once in place, rotation of the polarizer was smooth with what I believe is a bit higher force than I would have liked. However, I find this preferable to a looser ring. Removal of the filter after use, as expected, was a bit more difficult, requiring a bit of force to start loosening it.
I drove to the coast on a sunny day and took a number of frames at various polarizer strength. When I got home I carefully inspected each photo and then compared them side by side. I may not be a professional but I am extremely critical of my work but could not find any unexpected changes in sharpness or color shifts.
In summary, nice filter at a great price.

I have purchased a K&F UV filter 6 months ago and liked it, it seemed like good quality and I really liked the ribbed easy to grip frame (the biggest deciding factor), but it's a UV lens, not a lot to say about a lens that is at it's best when it does nothing to the picture.
This lens impressed me, it outperforms a CPL that cost me 3x the cost of this set. The attached video is me checking it out for the first time right from the package on my Nikon D5200. When dialed in the glare goes away and the colors suddenly pop!. I had only intended to post a few pics but when I saw the results I immediately made the video.

I had dropped my camera on a hike, which did in my previous filter. Time for a replacement.
The slim frame is nicely done and the outer ring has sufficient grip to easily turn it, even with the dampening that is just about right. I hope the dampening doesn't end up being too much as the grease ages over the years. A couple of things about the slim frame: The filter is more difficult to remove than normal framed filters and my OEM lens cover no longer fits, since there is less thread on the outer filter.
So, there is an decent lens cover included with a tether. However, I have been unable to attach the tether to the lens cover, as it appears the intended hole in the lens cover for the tether does not go all the way through. At this point I'm undecided on how I'm going to resolve that issue.
Other than the lens cap, quality looks right on. The coating does make a tremendous difference compared to an uncoated filter.

This is a great filter. I already use KF Concept filters in other sizes so I was glad I got one for my larger lens. Easy to install, no problems with them.

This worked perfectly - and fitted easily onto the front of my Nikon 18-70mm lens. The lens cap that comes with it even makes it easy to attach. I couldn't tell any difference in image quality when using the filter (other than the effect of the polarizer). Really happy with it.
