K&F Concept 55mm Circular Polarizer Filter Ultra-Slim 18 Multi-Coated Optical Glass Circular Polarizing Filter for Camera Lenses with Cleaning Cloth (K Series)

Like, the headline says, this IS technically the low-level when it comes to K&F filters... however, it performs wonderfully. For me, I had no issues using it and noticed no lack of detail or focusing ability. If there WAS any detail technically lost, it was more than made up for with the clarity of the image without glares. Obviously, the effect was most noticeable on windows, rivers, etc... but in certain circumstances try using this for portraits and you'll notice some of the specular highlights dissolve to create a more even result! This was something I accidentally discovered, but later found out is a fairly common use.I 100% would recommend having this as a new photographer or even maybe as an older photographer. If you're just a hobbyist photographer, this will help out and it will not break the bank. You won't notice any difference between this and a $400 CPL until you start getting technical with how you want to push your composition. At that point, you can look into higher "quality" glass, but in general, I see no problem with this filter for general use and always carry one in my filter case either as a backup or to use in dusty weather, rain, etc to keep from harming my nicer filters.

I struggle with the reduction of glare in certain situations... and suspect that's user error, because I'm really liking how colors pop and the contrast more closely resembles what I'm seeing and wanting to capture with my camera.Nice little filter, screws on easily/smoothly... all in all, really glad I picked this up.

Picked this up for my AE1 program. Came with a little cleaning cloth and everything. It’s very similar to my other polarizers from different brands and i’m a bit too novice to understand the difference between higher quality and lower quality but I have zero issues with fitment with this guy. Very good picture quality and yeah, it’s just overall pretty great. Especially for my film

It took a while to come in, but the lens is nice, works well, and pictures are nice.
