Thanks! But you had to check color accuracy with WB fixed ;) Flare is a disaster with ND2-400. Also, it would be interesting just to see crops from the central part of the flare images. Especially to compare the loss of sharpness with no ND filter image. Thank you anyway!

Looking at their filter line there does not appear to be much difference between lines. The No-X filters are just limited to a rotation range. Either less or more by using hard stops and thus that's how they get around the X pattern. The other filters are not limited and thus you can rotate it to display an X pattern. The range for no-X just is the amount of rotation that is limited. After that it appears that whether they start at n2 or n8 is dependent on the film they use with the latter allowing less transmission. You either buy a limited one that they limit for you because you prefer the handling and hard stops, or you buy one without hard stops knowing at some point you will hit the X pattern. After that there are just coating differences and of course manufacturing tolerances.

The thing that really annoys me and undoubtedly confuses many, is the use of the 2-400 sort of thing. Put it in STOPS and state that its around 8.6 stops. That way some might know what it is all about.

🚨 Will that lever come off.? I’d like to have my lens hood on but can’t see that happening with that sticking out. And without hard stops and if I took that off I don’t know how I would tell what stop I’m on with the hood on. Thoughts…???

I wouldn’t recommend it, no. They have 2 filters specifically for that. For solar photography you want something that is rated for IR and UV blocking specifically. And I doubt this one adequately blocks IR to be perfectly safe. Also, I don’t think the max filter is high enough. A typical solar filter is 16-20 stops, while this one maxes out around 8.5 I think?

@@MnMS1904 infomercials are often dramatized more than they’d like to admit, and 60p makes it all the more obvious. Works against anyone trying to conceal anything, because the microexpressions on a persons face are suddenly much easier to read. Experiments have found it’s incredibly difficult act convincingly at 120p. On theatre stage IRL it only works because there is already a culturally expected understanding of falsehood.

@WesPerry

Yes, but only insofar as they specifically polarize light to interact with one another, using “circular polarization” (like 3D glasses do in movies). These have little effect on the look of outside light coming in. This is super confusing, though, as this is not the same as a “circular polarizer”, which filters one angle of light, allowing you to rotate it to choose which angle you want to cut. The K&F VND +Polarizer has a directional circular polarizer as such.

Sometimes you can find these for under $100. But spending less and less can get you some pretty terrible colour shifts and image degradation, so you definitely get what you pay for to some degree.
