Great ND
No color cast unlike most in the market and you don’t have to pay an eye gouging price. Quality is also impressive. If I had to change anything it would just be the silver pin for a more discreet and sleek design. Maybe even measurement notches for the CPL

Best in Price, Build, and Quality.
I honestly don’t have anything bad to say about this ND/CPL 2 in 1 filter other than there is a bit of vignetting that comes with it. No ND filter is perfect and you will always get some kind of vignetting even with the “high quality” lens filters that are well known. Haida did an amazing job with this one. While other filters may introduce a temperature change in your photos, this one excels in keeping your photos true to color. This Haida filter is amazing in price, build and quality. I absolutely love it and I’m glad I did not spend $250 on some over priced endorsed product.

A quality filter but not without some issues
Pros:- Nice build quality- ND adjustment lever feels smooth- Easy to remove and install- Good value for price- No vignette even at a wide 24mm focal lengthCons:- Cannot attach lens cap of same thread size- Slight blue color cast in shadows depending on light conditionsI've tried many CPL filters that were slightly more expensive than this one and were always disappointed by lackluster build quality and performance. I was a bit skeptical about purchasing this combo filter at first but Haida has earned my trust with future filter purchases after using this filter during two photoshoots. The build quality is fantastic, feels nice to hold and the ND adjustment lever moves smoothly along the groove. The case is a clamshell made from sturdy plastic and has a foam insert to keep the filter secure. The actual glass is bigger than the thread size which I believe is to reduce vignetting in photos, there are threads on the inside of the filter that could probably fit a bigger lens cap. The only issue I noticed is when using the CPL filter there is sometimes a blue color cast in the shadows, this can be corrected with some grading in post but it is worth nothing. Overall this is a fantastic filter that I would recommend purchasing instead of the ones that are $10-$30 more expensive. it's a great value that has exceeded my expectations.

This is the real deal. Does what it's supposed to.
No dark X, no vignetting, accurate ND values from 3 to 7 stops. Easy to use, and the CPL feature works well to reduce glare and reflections. Does exactly what it should! I tested it on a 12mm to 60mm zoom lens on a Micro Four Thirds camera, so full-frame equivalent of 24mm to 120mm. No problems even on the 12mm end.The only downside of a filter like this is that you won't want to leave it on the lens all the time. With a minimum setting of 3 stops you'll need to remove it for low light situations. I tried to purchase one of the VND-only filters (no CPL), with a wider range, but found that those advertising such a filter were pretty much lying. Testing the actual range, it was far less than the advertised stops. And if you try to add a CPL to a variable ND, you start running into interactions where rotating the CPL causes increased ND values depending on its orientation relative to the VND filter.This one works like a champ with both the CPL and VND features easy to use and keep straight while operating. So I just bought a separate CPL-only filter for low light situations.

EDIT: (still) Worst item I’ve purchased on Amazon
EDIT: this is far worse than I previously reviewed. I couldn’t resist testing this further before returning. I’ve never edited a review. Buyer Beware DO NOT ATTACH TO ANY OTHER FILTERS. Ruined my B + W UV Pro whatever that arrived the same day. Amazon please remove this product as many people don’t understand how and why this item will damage their expensive camera equipment. PS have you ever had a $100 filter leave permanent marks after screwing it in a total of two total times on a Sony GM lens? I’m fine with receiving total Amazon junk when it’s a $10 price point and meant for a phone. LOOK AT THE ACTUAL REVIEWS WHEN YOU GO TO THW ACTUAL LISTING ON B&H (2.5 stars vs 4.5 stars on google and Amazon?). B&H is still somewhat the industry standard. If you need further evidence, just watch the countless “unbiased” reviews on YouTube, which all look like someone received a kit lens for Christmas and filmed it in their basement. The only reason B&H carries this brand is because it leads to upselling customers to the higher margin quality filters. I WOUMD HAVE PAID THE MONEY FOR THEM TO NOT SHIP ME THIS.——I received the 82mm CPL and VND today, opened it and the filter had some sort of partially dried glue that got all over the side of a my 16-35 GM 1. THIS IS A CHEAP FILTER; DO NOT BELIEVE ANY OF TTHE SPONSORED YOUTUBE VIDEOS THAT CLAIM. I’m going back to purchasing actual glass. Worst purchase ever. SCAM
