77mm CPL+MCUV+ND1000+Lens Cap Circular Polarizing Filter MCUV Protection Neutral Density Lens Filters Kit with 24 Layer Coatings Nano-Dazzle Series

I’ve been a fan of K&F Filters, and many of their other photographic products, for some time now, and have come to appreciate the consistency and the quality of the brand. The majority of my lenses live their lives with a K&F Concept UV protective filter on their front element.

I have done enough testing of the transmittance and sharpness of K&F UV filters in the past that I now consider them a trusted brand; I feel confident in their quality. I consider them a go-to, trusted seller.

I ordered this set of filters specifically for a fast, manual focus Zeiss 50mm f1.4 Planar Canon EF lens that mounts to my Sony camera via a Metabones EF-E adapter; this is an ideal kit for maintaining more control over exposure when recording video in a brightly lit environment. The UV filter provides inexpensive insurance, protecting the front element of the lens. The UV filtration, in practice, has little effect, since a UV filter is already installed over the Bayer array of digital sensors by the manufacturer; it has a more practical application in film photography. The included CPL filter is, of course, a mainstay of professional photography. Besides controlling some reflections and saturation, it also provides a limited range of variable neutral density.

K&F was thinking slow shutter speeds when they decided to include a 10-stop ND filter, which implies that this set of filters is geared toward the landscape photographer. On the other hand, it allows for shooting wide open at f1.4 in bright sunlight, although at a higher ISO than I would prefer. It’s more useful when using the camera on a tripod or monopod so the ISO can be kept reasonably low. Or, of course, using it with the lens closed down with a slow shutter speed in order to facilitate a special effect, like the smooth, ethereal look of blurred flowing water.

The physical attributes of the filters are, without exaggeration, their near featherweight, along with facetted chines on its circumference, for grip. In addition, K&F’s beautiful, 24-layerd, multi-coated glass to inhibit internal reflections. Interestingly, and unfortunately, although no fault of their design, the faceting on the aluminum frames prevents putting on or taking off the Zeiss lens’ original reversible, bayoneted lens shade. I can attach the lens shade, then the filter(s), but I need to remove the filter(s) before I can remove the lens shade; I’m a stickler for the use of lens shades and its an unfortunate inconvenience. But particular to this lens.

The two K&F front lens caps provided are a match in quality, if not an improvement, to the OEM lens cap that came with the lens. The pinching levers are easy to use, firmly spring-loaded, and provide a firm grip to the filter or the lens, on whichever it’s placed.

As I noted at the beginning, I’ve come to rely on the quality of K&F filters, and for all the benefits that the seller asserts, but most importantly to me, the high quality of their AGC multi-coated, anti-reflective glass. AGC, a Japanese company, is the largest manufacturer of glass in the world. Another reason I have confidence in K&F filters.

The filters are supplied with two lens caps, two lanyards to keep the lens caps from wondering off, three high-quality microfiber lens cleaning cloths and two plastic storage cases. K&F Concept provides plenty of value for your money and they don’t cut corners; everything provided is of the same high-quality.

I just bought a Sony 24-70 GM and needed a pair of 82mm UV filters for protection and CPL for landscape photography.

It comes with a pair of above stated LL filters, two storage boxes, two lens covers and a pair of strings to attach to the lens covers. It also comes with a pair of lens cloth...this is a good deal for its price.

The filters threads on to my GM lens very smoothly and fitted very well. I don't see obvious discoloration and CPL performs as expected.

I'd recommend to those who are on a budget and cannot afford bigger brands such as B&W, Nisi, etc.

The K&F Concept 67mm CPL MCUV ND1000 Lens Filter 2 Lens Caps Kits is well made and easy to use. Filter lens looks amazing on Sony lens and protects it at all times and makes all my photos look high quality.

The package contains a kit of filters from the “K&F Concept” brand, including: one for UV protection, one CPL polarizer and one ND1000, as well as 2 lens caps, three lens cleaning cloths and more, and two straps.

The products are of excellent quality, and thanks to them I both protected my lens from any impacts and also I was able to take advantage of the additional features of light polarization that are useful in photography and videography to eliminate reflections from surfaces etc., and the ND filter allowed me to take shots with a blurred background even in strong light situations.

In short, it is a very useful kit for various uses, I really appreciated the presence of caps for lens protection.
There is the possibility of choosing various sizes based on the diameter of your lens.

In conclusion, I recommend purchasing this filter kit to those who own a camera and need the features described above.

Nice kit to have if you wanna do some slow shutter shots or shoot wide open on sunny days.

Great quality neutral density nd1000 lens. Fits perfectly, doesn't jam or lock on lens. I have had Great luck with k&f gear. Great company making quality products! Images look amazing on super bright days. A wonderful tool to have in my gear bag. 5 stars!

Ok, the lanyards really put me off; one of those is they are trying to annoy me things! But I got over it, the filters are right up there with the usual K&F quality.

I lost these in my bag forever; I have one of those secret pockets. I have been using and enjoying the CPL, but I had one of those staring-into-the-sun shots that I really wanted to get, and the ND1000 performed like a champ.

This is a handy kit. I use ND1000 for doing long exposures at dusk, and polarizers for removing reflections on non-metalic surfaces. The CPL is nicer than i expected, and compact with smooth motion on rotation.

I didn't know how thin the CPL filter would be but I'm very glad it is because I've had some vignetting on some of my lenses from filter with thick frames, so I won't have to worry about that issue with this filter.

I didn't order it for the lens cap, but they are annoying to replace on their own, so I'm happy to have an extra in my kit at home for back up. But it's not something I would have paid extra for to be included.

This 77mm lens filter kit has exceeded my expectations in every way. This kit includes everything I need for versatile and professional photography, with a CPL (Circular Polarizer), MCUV (Multicoated Ultraviolet), and ND1000 (Neutral Density) filter, along with two lens caps for added protection. The quality of the filters is outstanding, with 24-layer coatings that provide excellent clarity and reduce reflections, glare, and UV light.

The CPL filter is perfect for enhancing color saturation and contrast in my landscape shots, while the ND1000 filter allows me to capture stunning long exposures with beautifully smooth water and sky effects. The MCUV filter is a great everyday filter that protects my lens from dust, dirt, and scratches without impacting image quality.

What I really appreciate is the waterproof and durable construction of the filters. They’re built to last and perform well in various weather conditions, which is crucial for outdoor photography. The included lens caps are a thoughtful addition, providing extra protection when the filters are not in use.

Overall, this filter kit from K&F Concept is a fantastic investment for any photographer looking to improve their image quality and expand their creative possibilities. The combination of high-quality materials, versatile functionality, and excellent performance makes it a must-have in my camera bag. Highly recommended!

This is a good quality filter. It does clean up rather well too. I love the amount of sizes offered too, great for any setup. The threading is very accurate and therefore easy to put on or take off. It comes with a good case too, which is much better than those filter pouches that don't keep dust off as well. It blocks visible light quite well and uniformly too. I'd love to see a variable ND filter too.
