Apart from the fact that it is an excellent product, the customer support is absolutely great, I have rarely been treated so reliably and friendly, big praise.

I am using this on my XT3 16-80 f4 and it's perfect match for me when I need to record in HLG during bright daylight. It has almost no impact on sharpness (you would need to pixel-peep to absolute details and even then the difference is minuscule, makes no visible difference in 4k video though) and no visible color shift.

I bought these Freewell range of filters as they were one of the first to use a magnet rather then a thread to attach the filter to the lens, and this makes life so much easier when swapping filters

Love the fact that I can change filters without the need of having to scree these on, especially when wearing gloves on a cold winter day

Easy to swap quality filters. Only downside is the lens cap will take the filter off when you remove it (if you put the cap over a filter on your lens), but other than that, I love the ability to throw filters on and off quickly. I can also use my older screw-on filters on top of these, so I can stack a magnetic CPL, magnetic ND16 and a screw-on ND1000 for a long exposure shot (as an example).
They are very good quality with no more color shift than any other filter on the market.
Also as a tip, I bought the largest filter I needed and bought the freewill step up rings for my other lenses. This way I only needed to buy one set of filters. The step up rings from Freewell have the magnetic base built in.
One last thing, the filters now come with 2 base rings, one with a UV filter and one that is just the open ring (no glass).
When I received the ND filter I could not get it to work right with the open base ring that I attached to my lens. Then I noticed the UV base ring was already attached to the ND filter in the package (they are so thin I could not tell), so I was trying to attach one base ring on top of another, so I just separated the UV base ring and put it away and viola the ND filter fit perfectly into the open base ring. I do not like putting extra glass on my lens, so I dont use UV filters.

In order to do the product justice, I still have to use this filter in the "battle" apart from a few test shots. Test shots were fine. It would have been nice to have a mark on the movable ring that shows the upper, dark position, I'll just touch the upper, dark position with a tippex, just think that makes it easier for me to position it correctly. All in all good value for money and looks and feels good.
