82mm Variable ND Filters ND2-ND32 Adjustable Fader Neutral Density Filter MRC 28-Layer NO X Spot Nano X Series
SKU: KF01.1064
I don’t know what this is supposed to do, but it makes my pictures look a lot nicer. It controls the amount of light my camera takes in like a window shade. My photos now have a premium look to them.

I've been looking around for a variable ND filter that doesn't have that "X" pattern you see mentioned in a lot of the reviews. So far I haven't seen it with this filter. It feels well made, the ring turns smoothly, and so far the darkening seems uniform and even. Overall I'm very happy with it and will continue to take more pictures with it to see how it works.

The lens works as intended but I received it with the lens coating scratched. The package was undamaged so I’m guessing it’s just poor quality control.. I haven’t been able to use it for a gig but I tested it for vignetting and it’s good as far as that goes.

This thing is excellent - I can't detect any issues with it at all. It's clearly marked for ND2 - ND32 so you can even set up your shots with math instead of looking at the viewfinder!

Came super quick and a great product. Not a lot of colour shift and it has hard stops which are great! The case it comes with is also super handy.

I purchased this a while back but decided to do a more controlled test today. My copy does have an almost imperceptible green tint. Certainly correctable with white balance adjustment either in-camera or in post. More importantly, I tested this on a extremely sharp 20mm lens with a high megapixel camera and was unable to detect any distortion or image softness due to the filter. Less one star because the threads are not easy to align on the lens. For me, it is good value for the money.

I got these for my trip so that I could do long exposure shots. Sometimes Minimum aperture is not good enough. I used these NDs on mainly max setting and in conjunction with some step down adapters. I figured it's best to get the largest size and then step down so that I can use it with all lenses. I was able to retain 98% of the image quality while use its max setting. One more feature I liked about this was that it did not spin all the way. It only spins half way from Min ND to MAX ND and does not reach any X spot at all. The f stops are also marked on the filter so you know how many stops you are dimming the light by. I did not see any color changes to the images that I got. Over all it was a decent purchase for the money spent. The case is also quiet nice to carry the object around

Over the weekend, I tested the K&F 82mm Variable ND Filter (ND2-32). I found that the image quality was great and I didn't notice any abnormal or uneven colour casts (see attached sample image). ND32 was enough to smooth out a waterfall on an overcast day. I think if it was sunny I would probably need a ND64 or greater. The variable ND filter ring moved smoothly and it was easy to adjust between shots.
My one issue is quality control. I noticed a flaw in my ND filter in 2 places near the frame of the ring. I'm not sure what causes it and it doesn't affect my image quality.
