I want to buy a cheap K&F filter set for my Sony 7iv + Sigma 24-70 2.8.

Not sure what set I should get?

  • CPL, ND8, ND64, ND1000
  • CPL, soft GND, ND1000

    So, I use an ND8/PL, ND64/PL, and ND1000/PL. opted for polarized to just get around the hassle of separates.

    Found that I used the ND64 the most (I shoot landscapes) and ND1000 for those longer exposures where needed.

    I also ended up using my PolarPro Recon a bit (VND 3-6+ w/CP) as well. Comes down to what you want to fool around with and learn. One of the other folks used an ND1000 constantly but they were more than happy to shoot high ISO as well. 🤷‍♂️

    Variable filter that handles the ND2-ND400 (1-9 Stops) range, a ND1000 (10 stop) filter and a CPL should be all you need.

    Graduated filter can be done in post so no real need for it.

    The Nano-X series is good value for money.

    Don’t take people who talk about color casts too seriously, there can be a color cast but it’s easily fixable in post.

    Also when you are buying from K&F be sure to check out their other sites as well, most big markets have their own top-level domain with everyone having different prices and sales. Just yesterday I ordered a Black Mist filter from their .com site that was half the price from my local top-level domain. And vice versa a couple months ago, my local site had half price compared to their .com domain.
