Good question Phil. I suffer from the same red green issue. I’ve just learned to live with it and accept it. So when I’m shooting and editing I don’t even think about it. I just shoot and process to what looks good, to my normal, to my eyes. Thinking about how they might look to people without the condition would drive me insane. So I don’t bother. I do often wonder if the colors in my images look awful and is everyone just being polite about it 😂

I have just changed to the Kase magnetic filter system and I'm now finding that I'm more likely to use the filters because of the simplicity of fitting to the lens. Highly recommend this magnetic system.

Thank you, James. I enjoy many KZread photographers’ videos but yours are particularly informative. I learned a lot from this one about using filters.

This is just what I needed to help me decide on a filter system. Thank you Jim.

Thank you James! I’ve just started my adventure in filters and you’re my first stop! 🤣🙌🏾

Your review has just hit the proverbial nail on the head for me. Just this very day ordered the Kase Wolverine Pro kit and the Nikon Z 14-30 (plus the step up ring for my Z 24-70). You've totally justified my choice. Great review and new subscriber.

Very informative as usual. Thanks James

I really like your images of water. Just the right of " time " and the water still looks wet. No looking like " ice."

Thank you for all that information. Explained very well.

Excellent presentation on filters. Very helpful. I have been considering magnetic filters for some time now. Closer to making that step now. Like you, I no longer feel a need for GND filters. Thanks for sharing.

Great video James. I have been using the kase filter system for some time now. I love them too.

I’m enjoying these filters a lot as it saves time faffing around. I’ve ditched my previous system along with grads so yet to see how a potential dual exposure bracket or otherwise works but certainly the speed of being able to deploy filters helps as you can spend more time on other more important aspects.

Great video James! I switched over to Kase filters about 3-4 months ago. Had Nisi before, and I have to say, these filters are wonderful! Totally agree with you. Magnetic is the way to go. Less weight, less bulk, quick changeout. Thanks for the tips on how and when to use them!

Hi James, great video! I've just ordered mine, so really looking forward to have them. Anyway, regarding the pouch and only 4 dividers - you can always stack the filters and put them all together in 1 place and have 3 more to spare! :) Cheers!

I went with the NiSi 64 CLP, an ND 1000 and a standard cpl, and have found a good balance - the 77mm with a step up ring works well for all of my lenses. The Kase does look good and I would consider it when the time comes....

Hi James: Thanks for producing this video. I have been looking at moving over from Lee to Kase, and specifically the Wolverine Magnetic series.

Great video James. I’m just buying into the KW Revolution system for my Olympus OM-1 system. I have 4 lenses with 72mm size which is handy.

Thanks James. I have just placed my order. Can’t wait.

Just to say it’s well worth getting choice of filters right first time - if you can I’ve moved from 77mm to 82mm and none of the usual used buyers are interested in buying my circular ND set (it’s boxed and in good condition). Should’ve bought an 82mm first time …

I’ve had mine about a year and come to the same conclusion. As you say the cap sometimes doesn’t seem as secure but other than that they are great. Great video.

How do you attach the step up ring to the 67 mm filter? Does the Kase 67 mm UV filter have threads on both sides?

James, great video. Thanks for covering these filters. I'm thinking of purchasing for my Fuji kit. Most of my lenses are 62mm thread size and one is 67. Should I opt for a 62 to 67 step up ring? Or...? Thanks!

Very good video James! Really interesting stuff with regard to the KASE magnetic filter system with its circular polariser, as well the 3-, 6-, and 10-stop fixed ND filters. But -- with respect to the ND filters -- what about the alternative of using a VARIABLE filter (instead of a series of separate, FIXED ND filters). How do you compare the two alternative solutions? Are they really "alternative" and of equal value after all? Was KASE right in proposing (and including in the leather case) three separate fixed ND filters instead of (for more practicality, on the face of it) just one variable ND filter?

@JamesBrewphoto

Thank you. For video the variable ND filters can be a good option but I find them pretty useless for serious photography. They produce an uneven ND effect across the scene which effectively creates uneven exposures.

Thank you for that review. I just ordered the 77mm kit with CPL, ND8 and ND64 (I can probably live without the ND1000) and the magnetic adapters for 72 and 58 mm lenses. In the long run this will be cheaper than getting CPL and ND filters for all my different filter sizes.

Hi Mark, go with the 95mm, it will save you from Vignette at 14mm. I don't find its large size any real issue really. The kase pouch is very small and as far as i'm aware a standard size. So smaller filters don't actually save any space anways. Only downside is lack of lens hoods as you say but that's only a minor concern. You will love them 👍

Hey, liking your content. Keep it up! So I have a very similar setup to you (Z7, 14-30/4, 24-70/4 and the Kase 95mm filter set). The Kase filter setup is wonderful, but has a couple of quirks. On my set anyway, I find that the 3-stop ND has a weaker magnetic attraction than the 6-stop 10-stop and CPL. Feels to me that it's about half as "sticky" as the others. It still works, but for some reason it irritates the OCD part of my brain. I wonder if my copy of that filter is from an earlier production run or something. I'm wondering if you have noticed a similar quirk with your 3-stop?

Useful content, capably presented w/o distracting hype, well illustrated w/terrific images!👍 Recall your “stuck filter” episode some time ago - good reason to switch to a mag system. “Color blind”?? Really?? Don’t recall you mentioning that before.🤔 What do you think about built-in ND filters in some cams? Here’s a tip for polarizer indoors, during lockdown: Put polarizer on cam and aim at TV/monitor screen that is displaying a white field. Rotate polarizer until image is darkest. (TV/monitor light is itself polarized.) Next, place something made of clear plastic (like cutlery or cup) between front of lens and TV/monitor - you should see colorful rainbow-like “stress” patterns in the plastic item. Slowly rotate polarizer to darken background to max. Good for unique images. Cheers, James!

It must impact how I see the world and photograph it to some extend but as I don’t know what normal looks like it’s impossible to say. I really like inbuilt ND solutions like the ones found on Olympus cameras. It’s surprising that more manufacturers haven’t adopted it as yet. Interesting tip, I’ll give it a try 👍

I'll leave them on the front of whatever I carry about - quite a range of lenses and cameras from day to day - and see if I have an opinion one way or another whether the result is worth the faff.

I'm gay and I'm a photographer, do u have a problem with gay people?

After much deliberation I finally decided to go with these Kase filters too. Haven't shot with them yet, but I did notice that my 3 stop and 6 stop filters had significantly weaker magnetism than the other filters (10 stop, and CPL being the strongest because it has the thickest ring). Same results across multiple adapter rings. Did anyone else experience this? I've sent those 2 filters back to be replaced, hopefully it's just a fluke!

@@KarenVaisman1 yes I did! I don’t remember the details exactly, but it was either a problem w individually purchased filters, or with some of the kit options. I think the place I purchased from swapped out some filters from a full kit and sent those to me as a replacement. The replacements work great. There is a code printed in the rings and the one indicated a bad batch-I would have to look that up for you later in photos at home. I do still find my “lens cap” to be a little weak, esp if you stack filters, it can get knocked off in your camera bag, but I don’t use it too often.

Following up: the printing on the updated filters have the code "BJH02" or BJG02" at the end. E.g., for a 6-stop filter, mine reads "Kase MAGNETIC KW-ND64 95mm BJH02". The filters with weak magnets did not have the "BJH02" at the end.

Kase magnetics are great, so easy to use and dont take lots of space. Graduated nd filter is maybe only thing, kase cant do well, because line goes allways at middle, since you cant move it up/down. They should make versions with 1/3 and 2/3 🤔

Thank you, James. I enjoy many KZread photographers’ videos but yours are particularly informative. I learned a lot from this one about using filters.
