  • In this video, I review a pro set of Kase Revolution Magnetic Color Coded filters. I also demonstrate some uses for Circular Polarizer and Neutral Density filters. This pro kit comes with an ND8 or 3 Stop, an ND64 or 6 Stop, and an ND1000 or 10 Stop Neutral Density filters as well as a CPL or Circular Polarizer filter.

    I already saw this written in the comments, but this video was deserving of another comment. The other "alleged" reviews I have seen on CZcams on the Kase filter system are only good for use as fertilizer. Your review gives a detailed explanation of the mechanics of the system and then gives plenty of examples for the applications of the product. Great video! I ordered my Kase system today and will retire my burdensome Lee filter system immediately. I didn't use my Lee system enough because there was too much set up. Call me lazy. When I did use it, I was pleased with the results but set up was just too exhaustive. However, the ease of use of the Kase system will definitely result in much more filtered images.

    I found that the inlay ring is much better than the screw on ring when it comes to wide angle lenses. I have a 14~30mm and with the inlay ring it cuts down on the vignette at 14 mm.

    Nice review and description of the filters. I have a couple of Kase filters. I like them. After seeing these with the color coding I want to get those next. I have a CPL & ND 64 82 mm. I use them on my 14-30 lens and use a step up ring for my 24-70. On the 14mm lens at 14mm I get vignetting if I stack the CPL & ND filter but it goes away around 16mm.

    • @PhilThach
      @PhilThach  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I didn’t even try shooting at 14 mm with that canon lens. It has vignetting at 14 without any filters at all. All of the bridge photos are made with 14 mm lens and 16 mm. It uses 77 mm filters. I know the Nikon one uses 82. If you decide to upgrade, make sure and use my coupon code so you will save 10%.

    I have just purchased these and loved your video. Unfortunately I can't use them on my 12-24 mm sony lens, but have the Haida inserts for that lens. But have step up adapters for my other lenses so I can use the same set of filters across them.

    • @PhilThach
      @PhilThach  Před 3 měsíci +5

      Thank you! I may do that at some point, but I can give you the synopsis now. The thing I like better about the Maven filters is the color coding covers the entire metal part of the filter and not just a ring so you can see the color coding from any direction. What I like better about the Kase filters is the inlaid ring and the I prefer the carrying case on the Kase filters. Both systems are excellent.

    Thanks for sharing your review. I use these filters and have reviewed them last year as you know Phil. Color coding is handy, but what did you think about the vignetting with 2 filters stacked together? I didn’t get that with some other brand filters when stacking.

      I get vignetting on my Kase Wolverine when stacking my 15-35. It’s annoying. But workable. Wish I had bought one size larger and just used a step up ring. But I’m not buying again. Yet. :). This set looks really nice!

    Thanks for sharing Phil. Caught my interest very much Miss your EXIF inforrmation on your fine shots like you normally show on your bird photos. Are you using AV and fixed ISO? I understand you let the camera determine shutterspeed. I am not an experienced landscape photographer, so for my understanding I would appreciate the settings. Good work as always Phil.
    Greetings from Per C., Denmark

    • @PhilThach
      @PhilThach  Před 3 měsíci

      A lot of times these days, I let Lightroom put the EXIF information in the top left of the screen instead of taking the time to type it in myself in the bottom of the screen. I always determine my own shutter speed and often in bird photography use automatic ISO, but in these shots in this video everything was manual. Thank you!

    How is the vignetting at wider focal lengths? I had the original 82mm Kase Wolverine filters but I had to send them back because the vignetting was absolutely unacceptable on my 24-70. I would really be interested in seeing thorough vignetting tests, including with stacked filters.

    • @PhilThach
      @PhilThach  Před 6 dny

      @@tooki3698 there is some vignetting, but specially at extremely wide focal lengths. Stacking filters can also lead to vignetting. I recommend using the inlaid ring, a single filter and not using the widest mm or two of your kens. For example, if I remember correctly in this video, I shot at 16 mm with my 14-30.

    Hi Phil, you have a funny timing. I received mine last week after checking out several reviews over the past months, including your review of the pretty similar Maven's. But in order to get this pro set combination from Maven shipped to Europe, it costs about 60% more than Kase. And Kase has as extra the smart inlaid ring, which I installed on my new 14-35 (traded this for my old R6 and EF1.4x, not a bad deal ;-)), while the regular magnetic adapter now lives on the 24-105. Just did a few trial shots regarding vignetting at 14mm, but after DxO lens corrections I don't see any vignetting. With this I'm well prepared for my summer holidays to Scotland.
    I was wondering whether your coupon could have provided a better deal, but the advantage is negated by the shipping costs to Europe.
    How do you compare these Kase filters versus the Maven's ?

    • @PhilThach
      @PhilThach  Před 3 měsíci +1

      That is quite a coincidence. I think both these filters and the maven’s are excellent. As I said in another comment, I like that the mavens have color on every metal part instead of just a stripe on the outside and I like that these filters have the inlaid ring. I also prefer the carrying case better with the Kase filters.
