Good for day night use
I really like it. The optics seem good and build quality is nice. Makes night shots very interesting.

very smart design for x100vi but...
I really wanted to like this filter, lens hood design for the x100vi cameras. Everything installs, and works perfectly. The CPL/GMIST filter produces similar result to the everyday filter, but slightly bluer in color. The filter, and the hood fits together pretty well, also the filter adaptor has a turn knob design that allows the CPL to be rotated to the correct angle for different lighting condition, which I love this feature. But one thing really bothers me is the thickness of filter/adapter. This is the thickest setup I have seen so far. I have compared to at least 2 other setups, this is by far the thickest. I just want to keep my camera as compact as possible. I might just keep this kit as a backup for my camera.

a bit expensive
Nice finish fits the camera. Well the finish matches the camera color. I wish it was a bit more affordable.

Surpassed my expectation.
I was worried the mist effect would be too subtle. But it’s perfect. Just noticeable to soften the image to get that film skin texture. Good stuff!

Good but not great
Seems well made but I think the glass seems to affect the image quality. I use B+W filters the glass quality is top notch ..This Freewell is ok for the price but for highest quality is not for me. It also does make the whole Fuji x100vi little bulkier due to extra thickness of freewell unit. Oh … the front lens filter cover is well over board IMO. The freewell logo seems over kill.

Just right for the price
This is the right blend of quality for the price. The packaging and presentation is nice enough to give or receive as a gift, and everything screws into my X100V nicely. The tab to adjust the CPL is easy to get at and to spin, but the lens hood also does tend to spin along with it.The mist adds a nice optical dreaminess to the camera thatʻs much appreciated in the right situation. Itʻs a great option to have without costing too much light or overpowering the image. I also enjoy the added security of having a lens hoot on such an expensive, fixed-lens body.Generally, this its a nice accessory for the fujifilm X100 line, and would be a great gift if you know somebody that owns one of these cameras.Better options do exist further up the market at higher price-points, but this is a great way to mix up your images on the cheap.

Just what I was looking for
This filter kit hit on virtually every want/need I had for my silver X100VI. The filter itself provides weather sealing for the camera, which is a plus even though I tend to be a fair weather photographer. The 1/4 mist really smooths out skin tones and gives, in my opinion, more of a film look rather than a clinical super sharp 40 MP image without sacrificing clarity. I'm also a big fan of the diffusion effect it has on environmental lighting. The CPL is really good - the adjustment lever is fantastic and the effect is uniform across the frame, regardless of the strength you choose. In other words, the sky/water is going to look the same and reflect the same colors across the whole frame at the 35MM EFL - see the 2nd photo attached to this review. I've seen some comments about the lever on the filter causing the lens hood to rotate, but that is the case with my kit. The hood stays perfectly in place when I make adjustments with the CPL lever. Speaking of the hood, it's a necessity to reduce or eliminate flaring (if that's what you want to do), but just as importantly it provides an additional layer of protection for the front element of the camera. The cap fits snugly over the lens hood for storage.It's really a perfect package and I couldn't recommend it more highly. 5 stars
