K&F CONCEPT 77mm Black Diffusion 1 Filter Mist Cinematic Effect Filter with 18 Multi-Layer Coatings for Video/Vlog/Portrait Photography (K-Series)

I like this filter. It is so dreamy. That's the trend going around and this filter didn't disappoint. I was able to capture some beautiful footage at Christmas where the lights bloom so wonderfully. The one-stop of diffusion works out so nicely. I do wish I got some lower levels because I really enjoy playing with this diffusion. I have a bunch of K&F filters and I think they have some of the best quality for the price.

Note that this review is for the full 1 grade black diffusion filter from K&F Concept K series (Nano-K).The 67mm circular filter is lightweight, made of aluminum that is precisely machined so that the rim fits perfectly. I was able to twist this onto the front of my Sigma 16mm lens smoothly. This is nice, with low reflection and anti-glaring. There is no detectable vignetting and it gives a softer edged "dreamy" cinema effect to shots.Packed in a nice plastic, protective case and three microfiber cleaning cloths are included. This is a great addition to any photography toolkit.

This is a decent black diffusion filter by K&F Concept that produces very nice filters for us photographers.This filter is easy to spin on and off with little effort and the photos do have a decent black diffusion and provide a very soft photograph.The only negative I really have is the case this was shipped in as they have much nicer cases they provide for their higher-end filters and this one just comes in a square plastic box with some padding. I would expect more from K&F but since this isn't one of their higher-end filters they they tend to cut costs.

I have used 1/4 and 1/8 filters but I have never seen the 1 before. If you are familiar with the look that a mist filter provides then imagine that look greatly amplified. This filter creates a dreamy like look and gives a creamy smooth appearance to the skin. It blurs background lights a good bit. It’s like adding a lot of haze to the environment you are shooting in without sacrificing all of the detail and depth.This effect can be too much for certain situations and taste and should be used with intention. This will definitely enhance your creativity in your work.

Works as expected. Cleaning cloth is a nice bonus. Probably a niche item for some, I'd say it depends on taste to whether it works for your needs. Sometimes it's neat, other times I don't care for it but it's another tool in your bag to experiment with.

In terms of filters, it feels like K&F is making some good ones. This is a nice filter, and well made. The effect on this one is fairly strong, but if it's the effect you're looking for, then this is a good filter to get it. The diffusion is nice and soft, and the materials all feel good. It threads nicely on a lens, and feels like it should hold up well in the future.

I have both the 77m & 82mm version of this filter. I do a lot of outdoor family photography and normally use a variable neutral density filter to open up the aperture for good bokeh (shallow depth of field). So I thought I would try this filter out without my neutral density filter and see what kind of results I would get. I was completely blown away!The beautiful dreamy look with the sunlight and the skin tones was just absolutely stunning. I wanted to keep my aperture (F-Stop) low around 2.8 to 4.0 and my ISO at 200. So I just simply increased my shutter speed to around 200, which was actually helpful to keep a sharp focus. These settings allowed me to then use this filter by itself and still capture the right amount of light without overexposing.Immediately after taking the first few photos, when I looked on the LCD screen it was just amazing. The sunlight coming in behind the subject was very surreal and her skin tones were just perfect. Another way to explain visually what I saw was, skin tones and curves were not rigid and sharp but smooth and glamorous. Obviously there are sometimes when you don't want that glamor soft look but for those times when you do, this is absolutely well worth the money.As a professional photographer I would say, if you don't have this filter in your bag, you're missing out on some great photos.

This is another quality filter from K&F Concept.The diffusion strength 1 means the effect of blooming is very noticeable even during day time, and very strong glow for light sources at night.It’s a good way to make your films unique and creative. With a little bit of color adjustment, the filter helps create a magical feel to the footage.Overall I use it to create dramatic effects for some video production scenes, as well as for personal photos and videos.

Alles Top

Ich hatte den Filter bestellt und leider beim Auspacken bemerkt, dass die Beschichtung in der Mitte fehlerhaft ist. Ein dicker Tropfen der Beschichtung ist da drauf gewesen. Also zurückgesendet und neu bestellt.Bei dem 2 Filter leider wieder das Gleiche. Ich weiß nicht, ob da eine ganze Serie Pfusch ist, oder ob man einfach die mangelhafte Ware mit den Mängeln bei der nächsten Bestellung wieder rausschickt. Ich vermute letzteres...

I was getting frustrated with many harsh looking photos, the result of often not being sure whether to turn on the flash in my camera or use natural light, since I don't own a smartphone with a camera and use an older Canon. I bought this lens and have been so pleased with the soft effect whether I use flash or not, especially for portraits of our cat with his fluffy coat and blurred tabby markings. Usually when I impulsively buy gadgets I buy the wrong thing, but this has worked out well!

Je ne sais pas si c’est parce que j’ai pris un effet trop fort (en 1) ou si parce que ce filtre est trop bas de gamme mais j’ai détesté l’effet sur mes photosL’effet de flou sur les lumières etait bien present mais ca degrade beaucoup trop la qualité de l’image.On aurait dit des photos prises avec un vieux smarphone
