Quality Control. Check your filter!!!
I give the filter a 5 out of 5, however...
Last Year:
I ordered the 1/8 last year thinking it was 1/8 for my 50mm lens. The texture was very sandy on the lens so you can see the black diffusion particles. I thought the diffusion was strong and not subtle for a 1/8 filter. I didn't think much of it thinking it's supposed to be like that.
This Year:
I then ordered the 1/8 again for a different 50mm lens. The filter arrived and I can't see the sandy texture. I tested it with the filter from last year. It looks like the 1/8 filter they sent me last year marked as 1/8 is actually about a 1/2. The one I ordered this year is a true 1/8 filter because it has significantly less highlight bloom.
Summary:
It works out for me cause now I have a 1/2 and a 1/8. But for those that need it for specific jobs, especially video work, I would double check your diffusion bloom.
