    One thing I forgot to mention is that Freewell will be offering drop in hard stop ND filters for the K2 Island section of the system. Good news for all those landscape photographers 📸🤙

    Great review my friend. Looks like a great kit. It’s amazing how far these products have come that you no longer need a huge backpack to toke them with you. 👏👏

    What a nifty kit, seems like they’ve thought of everything! Fabulous thorough review and so good to see it in use in the field. The night scenes were cool - so that’s how they do it! ⭐️

    Interesting filter set. Wish this was out before I purchased my Kase filter set. This seems much more versatile. Thanks again Adrian, well done.

    Hi Adrian, I have no experience with the filters you have used in the video, but according to the magnetic system I have to say, since I use the magnetic system from Kase, I would not use any screw based filtersystem anymore. That's such a big advantage, especially when we want to take exposures with and without filters or with different filters. Oh man, what I had to screw back then :)
    A great video and fantastic example images!
    Thank you for the video and have a great week ahead,
    Christian

      Thank you for watching Christian. Yes magnetic filters seem to be the norm now. Very quick to take off and replace. Hope you're having a great week. Cheers 🙏

    Great review, Adrian! I usually don’t like variable ND filters because they can leave dark spots in your image, but these Freewill filters seem to not have that problem! Nice!

    Awesome in depth review Adrian! Looks like a great, really versatile kit & I’m sure you’ll be using it quite often & a lot of your viewers might give it a go too! Enjoy the rest of your week mate ( and learn to count on your fingers😃😃😃 )!

    Thanks for sharing Adrian, looks like a nice piece of kit, I recently bought a variable ND and returned it because of the horrible X effect it had on the images, it was not a high end filter, proves you get what you pay for, this kit looks really cool.

    The box looks good. The step-up rings are too big and difficult to store in your bag attached to your lens. Magnetic obviously has become standard since KASE put it on the market. Screw on filters, hmmmmmm - I don't know, not for me. Hope the filters are good. Great review. Thank you so much for sharing and showing this filter system to us. All the best.

    Adrian , the VND base, what does it really do? I thought that the VND filters are the big one at the front!
    Thank you for a great review.

    Looks like a great kit indeed but the price. $750 AUD is just too steep for me. Thank you for the information though, awesome video as usual.

    The tool looks useful and its quality is acceptable. We have a question: does the distance between the filter and the lens obviate the need for a lenshood?

  • @shaycostigan2091
    @shaycostigan2091 Рік тому

    Great video, very informative, but it looks like you won't be able to use a lens hood? And if so, would that be a deal breaker

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  Рік тому

      No you can’t use a lens hood and no that would not be a dealbreaker for me.

    • @agent_pires
      @agent_pires Рік тому +1

      You could technically just get one of those rubber hoods that wrap around the barrel of the lens could you not?

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  Рік тому +1

      @@agent_pires I'd choose the "not" the hood would interfere with access to adjust the filter system and possible the focus/zoom on the lens you were using. Plus you'd probably look like a complete tool walking around with a camera that has a radar dish like you were communication with Mars, given how big a lens hood would have to be and "not" get vignetting or clipping in the corners. You know, only coming from the guy who has actually used the filter system!

    Can you use ND Filter with Polarizer?
    and how?
