KV37 62mm Fader Variable Adjustable ND Filter ND2-ND400 - Ultra-Slim & Multi-Coated Nano-Klear
SKU: KF01.1389
I've read reviews for other ND filters and found that for the price this one works great for what I'll be doing. The build quality is really good, it has some weight so it feels strong, the glass is really clean and it works perfectly, I got it for my 35mm 1.8 and it allows me to take pictures and videos at full Daylight to make wide aperture of 1.8 with an even balance of blues in the sky to the greens in the grass. I was really impressed with the quality of this filter. I will get another one for my 50mm 1.8. I use it for midday exposures of waterfalls and cloudscapes. This also helps achieve a cinematic look for video footage that looks really good! I didn't notice any noticeable loss of detail in pictures or videos, which is something I was concerned about. I noticed NO type of X or shadow from this filter. It's probably due to using a wide-angle lens. I highly recommend this ND filter!

I have used this with 2 different lenses. It sticks well to one and is a little rough but works with the second. I have a feeling this is more a difference in the lenses than the ND filter. It's easy to use while moving between differently lit areas. Good product!

I'll start by saying that I'm no expert. Most bad reviews are due to people not understanding that these adjustable filters are not meant to be used to their full capacity. Any filter will start to give problems when pushed to its maximum. First, just practice with this filter and know its limitations. You will be a happy customer if you do this.

If you plan on filming something outdoors then this is a must have, which makes it even better for such a low price. I've only used it a couple of times so far, but I haven't noticed any major issues with the footage I've shot with my A6500 and 18-105mm lens. If you have multiple lenses you want to use these with, I would suggest step down rings.
The only thing that could be improved would be if it had some sort of marker showing which stop you are at. At the moment I'm judging by the screen, but it would be nice to know exactly which stop I'm at.

This filter works perfectly for me and I am very happy with the results I got while using it. It is worth noting that the size of lens cap you need once it is fitted on your lens increases. I bought the 49mm and had to increase my lens cap size to 52mm to accommodate the larger thread size on the front. This wasn't a big deal though as I already had a 52mm lens cap lying around. There is a size chart on the company's website that tells you what size lens cap you need based on what size filter you buy. Hope that helps

I wasn't sure about the variable fader, fearing it wasn't powerful enough.
Outstanding quality and performance, easiest handling. Took photos of partial eclipses and even direct sunlight. A simple twist adjusts the brightness from almost completely transparent to pitch black. Never seen anything like this.
This is a must have for creative photography. Arrived quickly.

love it works great. However! If you have a 58mm thread, you need to buy a 62mm lens cover because the front thread is larger than the rear thread and the 58mm thread will not fit. Just a helpful tip when purchasing this product.

The only problem I encountered was that I had to auto focus the scene first, then change the settings to manual and then add the filter and adjust the shutter speed based on the ND settings. Otherwise a great filter...

... Remember, this is a variable filter based on polarizing filters. Therefore, when photographing the sky or water reflections, the density is not uniform over the entire area. Good use for my multiple applications.

I've been using it for a week in a row and I can't be happier with it!
The much more expensive filters have nothing to envy.
It has no aberrations, it's no vignette, you don't see the X of other cheaper filters...
yes, if you darken it to the maximum steps, the color is tinted a little greenish yellow, but this can be done with a color correction both in photo and can also be solved in video
