Quoting John Sessoms <jsessoms...@nc.rr.com>:
From: Brian Walters
Yeah - bought one last year from a seller in China or Hong Kong. Mine
was one of the square ones that fit into a Cokin holder. It has a
strong magenta cast, which (I think) is typical of these cheapies, so
be prepared to do colour balance in post or convert to black and white.
Here's one example that I took with the filter:

There are probably occasions where it could be useful so I haven't
thrown it in the bin (yet).
With that color cast, I wonder if you actually got a mislabeled
item? Instead of a ND filter with a magenta cast, it's a magenta
color conversion filter labeled ND?
I suppose that's possible but I doubt it. I found quite a few similar
experiences on line. Actually the example I posted was an extreme
case - the colour cast seems more pronounced the longer the exposure.
