Fast delivery as usual! The UV filter makes a high-quality impression and there is absolutely nothing to complain about in terms of image quality, even if you only use the filter to protect the lens. The highlight, however, is the lens cap, which can be attached and removed in no time. The strength of the magnets is more than sufficient; you can be sure that you won't lose the cap. But that also brings with it the first small problem (which other manufacturers have too), because without 2cm long fingernails you can't pull the cap off when the lens hood is attached. This could be quickly remedied with knurling that runs horizontally or diagonally. But it can also be done in the workshop without a lathe. Simply drill two 3mm holes and use 5cm of parachute cord and the cap now has a handle. I use this version for all three magnetic lens caps... it feels good and doesn't get in the way at all. Without a lens hood it works without any problems, of course!

I have no complaints about these filters. I run them on all my walkabout lenses that get carried around. Flare resistance is very good thanks to the coatings, and it is rare that I have to make an adjustment to a shot due to flare. The only exception has been when I was taking photos at a museum and pointing upward at items close to bright lights. But other than that, they clean well and let me run without a lens cap for those candid shots.

For Fuji x100v, its easy to install and can be flipped to accommodate a WCL/TCL or a lens hood like in the photo. Will have to actually test it for street photography if its really water and dust resistant.

K&F has been quietly making some great products these days. I already have their variable ND and CPL filter which are amazing in their own rights. However, this takes the filter to the next level. If you are like me, I am constantly loosing the cover as I remove it for photography and then I forget to put it on. However, with a magnetic cover, putting it on makes it so much easier. This in turn protect the lens against the elements. The UV filter by itself fits perfectly and appears to be of good quality. I will be putting it up for a spin soon to test it compressively but from what I have seen, it's of high quality. I am quite happy with this package and highly recommend it.

Love the way these look aestheically pleasing on the end of the lens and the way the orange ring compliments the orange ring on my camera. Bought this mainly to see what the magnetic system would do and very impressed with the sturdiness and ease at which the lens cap can be applied and removed. I would, however, say that it is best to remove the lens cap before putting on a hood. The only way to remove it with a hood on is to have a suction cap to hand. The filter appears to be of very good quality, but I rarely use anything but CPL and ND ones. This will definitely have me invest in the magnetic verions of those too now.

I wanted to replace an older UV filter that always seemed to darken my images. I tried this one form K&F as I've owned a tripod and monopod from them and like the quality. UV filters are priced anywhere from a few dollars to >$100, so I tried this one which is about middle of the pack. This filter is really thin and very clear and didn't notice any negative impacts to my pictures. I went ahead and purchased this model in different sizes for all my other lenses. The glass seems strong, and provides an extra layer of scratch protection to my expensive lenses.

I have this filter in three sizes! It is very well made, easily threads on the lens, and provides great UV protection as well as preventing my actual lens from being scratched. Great value for the price! Picture quality is great through the filter. I use this filter for everything outdoors.

love this brand and the magnetic functionality. For me, it’s much easier to retain my lens covers this way and I’m less likely to misplace them. Feel stronger than the OEM brands.

almost returned it when I found out my lens came with a complimentary $50 Sigma lens UV filter. The optics on it are wonderful, but I'm about to go to Niagara Falls and I imagine I don't want to marry my lens cloth. I thought - why not just test them both under the sink before sending it back? So glad I did! As if by magic, this K&H filter drains and all the water disappears. The free Sigma filter? It sucks the water! And it's hard to get off! If you received a free high-quality UV filter and stay dry 24/7, no upgrade is needed. Do you value versatility in any weather? Buy this now!
