Are Urth Filters Any Good?

I've used Urth filters many years ago, back when they were known as Gobe. What I didn't realize was, they've come a long way since then. Today I take a quick look at their variable ND filters, have they improved over the years?
Urth ND2-400 (1-8.6 Stops): amzn.to/492422s
Urth Magnetic ND1000 (10 Stops): amzn.to/3QqJE48

I just discovered you and loved the last couple videos I’ve seen. If you have the time you should keep making videos! Consistency is hard but would love see more in the future

[@SMBYopinion]

Thank you so much!! Yes I agree, sometimes it’s just hard to find time through regular daily life to post though but I’m working on it for sure! Thanks for the support!!

[@efreutel]

Nice review. Many thanks!

[@SMBYopinion]

Glad to help!

[@nespressoman]

I love the Urth magnetic filters.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

The hard stops is best feature on these, I’ve bought and lost probably half a dozen of them 😅

[@SMBYopinion]

😲 that’s a lot of lost filters!
Haha well at least they’re priced pretty reasonably

[@phonyhero]

I bought the urth R72 filter and it is awful vs a Hoya one. Literally doesn’t work as an IR filter at all. I’ve bought loads of their products and had no issues up until now. Big shame as now I’ll be very wary.

[@SMBYopinion]

Ah, sorry to hear. I’ve never tried their IR filters before. But thanks for the heads up!
