These are not the stops you are looking for.

Right out of the box I took a series of test shots with my fixed aperture and ISO color checker to check the labeled stops on the filters with the required shutter speed setting. In short, I bought the 1.2. 3 and 4 stage set of neutral density filters. I have a set of ND filters with f/1, f/1.5, f/2.5 and f/4. I repeated the test 3 times with different apertures and ISOs and got the same results. Slight warm tone on ND8 and ND16 filters, relatively neutral on ND4 and ND2 filters. . Image sharpness (centre) did not deteriorate significantly at 100% magnification. This is a set of 4 budget ND filters for the price of a brand name ND filter. If budget is an issue, you don't need exact numbers, just a little wiggle room with your exposures, and you can correct for minor color shifts at the top end in post, it's good value for money. Aluminum rings, so be careful not to twist them when installing. The thread alignment is pretty good, so you'll have to work hard to get it very wrong.
