I had my doubts before buying this black mist 82mm filter, because I really do mostly landscape and I thought they were only used in portrait or "Street". I wasn't sure what I could get out of it and I was pleasantly surprised.

A filter that creates a special atmosphere, adding a kind of haze around points of light. In the photos you can see the effect it generates, I find it very interesting and I think that in many situations it can give a special touch to the photos.

The filter is of the threaded type, comes in its plastic box, which also serves for different sizes of filters, from 43mm to 82mm. The metal border and the crystal filter.

Right now only ideas come to my head to investigate landscape applications, it seems to me a very interesting option with which I am enjoying a lot.

I leave you some photos and video so you can understand what effect is achieved using this filter.

Bought for long exposure works well so far
The first impression was positive, the packaging including the plastic case already protected the filter during transport to me.
The plastic case makes a stable impression and has a simple yet stable-looking fastener, so that you can stow it loosely in the camera backpack.

The setting aid is marked (non-linear) and has two end stops. The first attempts with the filter were quite okay, when the weather is better I'll try the next river or in the city and will update the results if necessary.

I have the threaded version of this filter from K&F Concept and was very happy with the quality. I use it regularly to add a subtle softening effect to my paintings. This new magnetic version is awesome! The magnetic attachment is very strong, making it quick and easy to install or remove the filter and lens cap. The construction quality is excellent; K&F filters are largely in the same league as Tiffen filters. We recommend!

I see that K&F have started making a number of different filters (ND, polarizers and diffusion) using this magnet system and I would definitely be interested in adding more to my collection as it is an excellent system. It would work particularly well for the 10-stop ND filter, since that's the kind of filter you have to keep turning on and off (because you can't see through it to focus). If you can turn it on and off it would make it SO much easier to use.

So I think a lot of people involved in video products are very familiar with the Tiffen Black Pro Mist filters. This is K&F's version of this filter. I'll elaborate on what I think about the filter, but you can judge for yourself in one of the pictures in this review, where I show you the same image; the first without filter then with the filter.

One of the results you get with such a filter is the blooming of the highlights. This filter does that pretty well. Comparing the bloom to the Tiffen line, I'd say it's between Tiffen's 1/2 and 1/4 strength, being closer to 1/4. The highlight fall from IMO was strong but natural. Remember that the light in the image fills the frame, so you're seeing this particular effect of this filter at its most extreme. You won't see as much flowering in a more natural environment. Take a look at the camera highlights. For me, the K&F filter had a big impact on highlight roll-off, which was very smooth.

The other effect you get with a black fog filter is slightly reduced contrast and slightly softening of the shadows. For me, I thought this filter did that pretty well. If you look at the texture on the camera handle in the image, you can see how that texture is just softened up. Imagine shooting a person and you can imagine how much you could smooth the skin.

It also comes in a nice little screw together plastic case. Inside the case is this little rubber stopper that keeps the filter from sliding around in the case. I love the attention to detail here.

Compared to the Tiffen version of this lens at the size I got, which was 82mm, the K&F Black Mist is about $40 cheaper. I think you get good value for your money here. Can't wait to try this filter on some upcoming shoots.

I think K&F is moving into higher end filters and if this filter is an example of the kind of quality it can produce I can't wait to see what filter they release next.

The filter comes in a hard case, which already distinguishes it from low-end filters: it is convenient to use and has a non-slip part with different notches for multiple filter sizes. The construction is excellent and immediately recognizable by the layer applied to the surface, which is a professional tool.
If you're a photography freak like me, you've already tried things like petroleum jelly on the lens, stockings pulled onto a filter, or different films to get an effect similar to diffusion/glow. Here this filter is anything but. It has a sneaky effect and does NOT degrade the image. The edges remain sharp while the colors inside the photo seem to fade slightly, restoring the quality obtained using film: really nice! I bought it for daytime photography, but certainly one of its best uses is with night lights, where you can better appreciate that spread of color and brightness. Although it is an overused term, this filter gives the digital photo pulp an organic feel. I would like to point out that it does not have an obvious and vulgar broad appeal, but is visible without being noticed. Also highly recommended for videos!

Preferring the shot to post-processing, I tried this filter with the only light from an electric garland and the rendering was good, the light from the garland is diffused and softer.
Can't wait to use it for nighttime videos when restrictions are lifted.

This filter is the cinema. It's the perfect power for all video work and photos, although the 1/8 could be better for normal client work. Viewing footage shot with this filter is an experience in itself. The quality preservation is spot on. My only regret is that I didn't purchase the 82mm, so I wouldn't need to purchase more than one. I would recommend it to anyone looking for the "cinematic look". That's it. This is the cinema.

A good filter that keeps what it promises. Unfortunately, I bought it too late, on the manufacturer's website it cost around € 50 for a long time, now all of a sudden it doesn't anymore. I find the effect too extreme for outdoor shots, although of course it always depends on the scene and the desired result. But you can certainly recommend him.

Very good construction and definition.

The lens is extremely well made and the effects this filter can provide are superb. Excellent construction with precision threads as well as magnetic instant on/off capability. The NANO multi-coating is superb and does NOT produce any artefacts, focus issues or any other issues.

Black Pro-Mist 1/4 filters are used for a number of purposes, not the least of which is to soften skin contrast and create a "dreamy" effect for portraits and general subjects where softened contrast is desired.

This 67mm set is a widely used size of many lenses. For me it's the right size for most of my Tamron lenses as well as the Sony 85mm f/1.8, Sigma 16mm f/1.4 APS-C and my Canon 100mm f/2.8L macro lens. That makes this single filter set an excellent value for the already low price on Amazon.

This particular filter model offers 1/4 diffusion that creates a softer, cinematic effect and is great for both stills and video. This K&F version uses a unique magnetic adapter that screws into the front of the lens and allows 1-second attachment of the Black Pro-Mist 1/4 filter for easy use and removal. Turn on/off immediately.
This makes it incredibly easy to use a camera with or without a filter and not have to screw it in and out repeatedly. Great innovation!

As a YouTube video producer, influencer and vlogger, this filter has been fantastic for spontaneous shots and videos when I see a scene or shot that would benefit greatly from some softening... especially of people for live action or portraits when outdoors record in bright light or sunshine. Shadows are not affected and reflections are softened somewhat. Perfect!

I own a number of K&F filters of various types including UV, ND, polarizers and diffusers. I have placed great trust in the company's products without hesitation. This particular filter set offers excellent value for money when compared to much more expensive similar filters such as those from B+W and Hoya whilst offering virtually equivalent performance. Fantastic!

For me, this filter is clearly a Strong FIVE STAR winner and gets my honest and VERY warm recommendation! Simply excellent!
