 Oh, oh, are we recording today? We're gonna talk about three wells world first versatile magnetic variable and D filter and show you how the system can be a game-changer for running gun shooters because this thing right here is Magnetic If you shoot a lot of videos a variable and D filter is crucial when Shooting in bright conditions and maintaining a wide aperture to create that nice Shallow depth of field if you don't know what a variable and D filter is it's basically Sunglasses for your lens that cuts down light by twisting the filter to reduce the light from entering the sensor Before I used a basic variable and D filter by Hoya, but as I started using free wells variable and D filters I noticed a lot of benefits what I like about them magnetic filters most is that it works as an All-in-one system, which is great for running gun shooting full disclosure free well has provided me with these Variable and D filters, but I wasn't asked or paid to say anything specific So everything you will hear will be my honest opinion to give you an idea I will be showing you what's in the package talk about the build quality show you how the magnetic Swap system works price and my final thoughts to it Yep, there will be a time stamp below in the video description if you want to skip or go back to a particular part of The video so let's start off with the package it comes with a nice protective case With all the filters in it that fit in perfectly you get a magnetic two to five sub variable and D Circular polarizer a magnetic six to nine stop a variable and D filter slash and D 32 circular polarizer Two magnetic base plate one functioning as a standard one stop and D and the other as an ND mist filter to protect the filter There is a magnetic lens cap provided as well when it comes to the built quality the magnetic filters feel very high quality They're made from aluminium which makes it lightweight to carry along the design of it is very beautiful and gives a Professional look to it the magnets hold the filters securely and makes it easy to switch from one filter to another Saving you a lot of time what's cool is that even though the filters are magnetic The rings are made with hard stops to help indicate the different stops once you're done shooting You can simply remove the VND and attach the magnetic lens cap on to the base plate Let's now look at the magnetic swap system There are three different types of filters in this set a variable and D filter a circular polarizer and a mist filter All these filters can be quickly swapped to fit your shooting needs Let's first look at the variable and D filter to mount it I first screw the base plate on to the lens now I can use either the two to five or six to nine variable and D filter Keep in mind that there are two sides of these filters on the other side the filter functions as a circular polarizer So to use the variable and D filter I make sure to have the two to five or six to nine inscription Faced towards me. I then align the A marks together and I'm ready to use it If I don't plan on using the variable and D filter I can simply remove and use the base plate the base plate also has a glass in it Which is a one-stop and D filter and that as well can be removed if not needed Let's now look at the CPL filter to mount it I first remove the one-stop and D glass from the base plate as I mentioned before on the other side of the variable and D filter You will have the circular polarizer attach it to the base plate so that the CPL Inscription faces towards you now you can twist the filter 360 degree to remove any sort of glare You can also use the magnetic and D with the CPL glass to create a hybrid filter Okay, folks, let's now look at the mist filter to mount it I simply switch the one stop and D filter with the mist filter I make sure to align the logo on the filter with the base plate and then I'm basically ready to go I can either just use the mist base plate or add one of the variable and D filters on top when filming in bright conditions The mist filter softens the highlights creating a glow effect that gives the video a dreamy look to it It's important to note that when considering buying a filter You don't want to choose a cheap one choosing a quality glass filter is important because anything you put in front of the lens Will degrade the image quality using high quality glass such as the ones from free Well will give you much better results. Here's a comparison between two static videos Shot with and without the ND filter. I didn't notice any loss of sharpness in the video I personally didn't notice much of a difference only that with the filters It creates a bit of a warmer tone, which I personally like as for my final thoughts for the price of 399 US dollars you get a nice set of magnetic filters that work as an all-in-one System free will has put a lot of thought into it and I haven't seen this system on other filters so far Surely a unique piece of design But most importantly great glass quality with no noticeable color shifts and loss of image quality I like how they included the magnetic lens cap as well with the filters from Hoya I didn't even have a lens cap so I had to unscrew it every time I didn't need it I highly recommend this filter to those that need a quick setup with the ability to switch between different filters as a Hybrid shooter I will certainly always keep this with me as there is everything included in this set something else I forgot to mention is that free will also has magnetic step-up rings for mounting it onto your lens because each lens has a different Size and to make it compatible you will have to get the right size and I have the 82 Millimeter which fits perfectly with my Sigma 24 to 70 millimeter f 2.8 And I recommend getting the largest filter and then buying step-up rings All right guys, let me know in the comment section below what you think about these filters Make sure to leave a like if you enjoyed this video And if you're new to this channel make sure to subscribe as it will help me a lot to keep Continuing making these videos for you guys.
