Lens Filter K&F STAR Gwiazdka 2-in-1 x4 / x8 for 58 mm lenses KF01.2329

The K&F STAR Gwiazdka 2-in-1 x4 / x8 for 58 mm lenses (model KF01.2329) is a screw-in optical filter that creates controllable starburst effects. It fits lenses with a 58 mm filter thread and offers two selectable patterns — four-point and eight-point star rays — to add decorative light streaks around bright point light sources. The filter is intended for use in photography and videography to enhance night scenes, street lights, holiday lights, portraits with specular highlights, and other creative compositions.

Advantages

The filter provides two distinct star patterns in a single, easy-to-mount unit, allowing quick changes between x4 and x8 effects without swapping filters. Its screw-in design ensures stable attachment to any lens with a 58 mm thread. The optical surface is engineered to produce consistent, even star rays from point light sources while maintaining overall image clarity for both stills and video.

Suitable for

• Night photography with city lights and street scenes
• Portraits where highlights benefit from decorative rays
• Long exposure and creative light-painting effects
• Holiday and event photography with bright point light sources
• Videography requiring subtle starburst highlights

Key specifications

• Thread diameter: 58 mm, screw-in mounting for compatible lenses
• Effect types: selectable 4-point (x4) and 8-point (x8) starburst patterns
• Construction: single unit combining both star patterns for quick switching
• Optical characteristic: creates directional light rays from point light sources while preserving image sharpness
• Compatibility: designed for lenses with 58 mm filter threads; suitable for stills and video

How to use

Attach the filter by screwing it onto the front of any lens with a 58 mm filter thread until it is secure. Choose the desired star pattern (x4 or x8) according to the composition and the amount of starburst effect needed. Compose and focus the scene as usual; star effects appear on bright point light sources such as street lamps, reflections, specular highlights and distant lights. For best results, expose for the scene and avoid overexposure of bright lights to preserve defined star rays. The filter can remain mounted for both still photography and video recording.

Usage recommendations

For pronounced starbursts, use small apertures (higher f-numbers). When shooting at night or with backlit subjects, adjust exposure to prevent blown highlights. Clean the filter surface with a soft microfiber cloth to avoid scratches and maintain consistent optical performance.
