Hi everyone, I hope you're well and thank you very much for joining me on my channel. Today I'm going to talk about a filter that I was sent by K&F Concepts. It's one of their Nano X filters which is their LAT series and it's a natural night light pollution filter MRC. I've got it in the 82mm variant as that will fit my Sigma Art lens, my 24 to 70 Sigma Art which I like to use for astro photography. So stick with me, I'll talk about the product and show you what it can do. My name's Glen, you're watching AstroBloak. Hi everyone, so as I said I've got a filter from K&F Concepts and it's their Nano X series filters. It comes in nice packaging and the filter is in protective case. Now I've gone for the threaded filters that go on the end of the lens. It's very nicely made. This is the 82mm as it fits my Sigma Art 20 to 70mm lens. They also sell square filters and magnetic filters and all different types of things. So it's definitely worth checking their website out as they have a large collection of accessories. I'd heard of K&F Concepts before mainly because I'd actually bought something from them. I think through Amazon. So quite a few years ago actually I bought a tripod and it's this one here which is K&F Concepts. I'll turn it up the right way, you can read it properly. It's been excellent, it's a really nice light tripod and it's been brilliant. I've had that for a good three maybe four years now and never let me down. I knew that the company was decent so I thought yeah let's try their filters out. With DSLRs you can get clipping filters but I don't actually own any astrophotography filters for my DSLR camera. I've got a mirror in this camera which is a Canon EOS R not the RA but just the R. It's a great camera but there were some clipping filters that I saw back some time but they have a really expensive. I haven't actually got any filters for this camera so this was a great opportunity for me to try it out. So let's get it on the lens and then we'll see if we can show you what it can do. And there you go, there's your filter ready for some nighttime astrophotography. And there you go, there's your filter ready for some nighttime astrophotography. So let's go. So let's go. So there you go there's some images that I've been taking recently. It's been a real pleasure to get out just with my DSLR and have some fun. Thank you ever so much K&F for sending me the filter because you inspired me to do that. Sometimes we get so hung up with our big telly scopes and astro cameras and everything. We forget about the basics and I really enjoy going out with my DSLR going back to where I started. And your filter did a brilliant job. I think you can see from the images the extra contrast it gives really works nicely with astrophotography. Definitely cuts down a little bit on the light pollution and I thought it was a really nice filter. Definitely nice premium quality in hand and did an absolutely brilliant job. So thank you for sending that to me and getting me back out there with my camera. KempFafe or K&F have a brilliant website. There's a link in my description below. And there's also a coupon code for an extra 10% off and a link to the filter below. And the code is astro bloke. So put that in and you should get an extra 10% off the retail price. As I say I bought from them before and they're a really nice company to deal with so you shouldn't have any problems. All it leaves for me to say is you know get out there with your DSLRs and start taking some pictures of the night sky because it's absolutely beautiful. Even if there are a few clouds about in fact sometimes that can add to the picture. I had a little bit of an issue testing this filter as quickly as I wanted to because the weather just was not even any gaps to see any stars at all. But we got some clear nights in the end and we was able to test it out. And I was really pleased with the results. So anyway have a look for yourself and until next time please take care and of course clear skies. .
