"K&F Concept" Vs. "Altura Photo" ND Filters (part 1 of 2)

K&F Concept Vs. Altura Photo ND Filters

In this simple first review on Hansen Camera we review: Image Quality, Ghosting, and Practicality.  

The following tests were done with an Olympus OM-D E-M5 using a 45mm f/1.8 lens using manual focus on a tripod.  Both filters were purchased through amazon.com

Summary:                Scores                                   Cons

K&F Concept                       4/10                                      Poor image quality and purple tint

Altura Photo                        8/10                                      Lack of range
