Here are some photos I've taken with my Full Spectrum Fuji X-T10 & 50mm F2 along with various filters.

Day 1, walking around the neighbourhood

Day 2, walking near Victoria harbour on Central side

Day 2, hiked up to The Peak, before taking tram down.

Day 2, After the tram ride down.

Day 3, Hiking up the 2nd highest mountain in Hong Kong, over 900metres. All cloudy and no visibility.

Day 3, Central side of Victoria harbour. Paid the guy HK$20 so he wouldn't mind me taking his picture.

Day 4, walking in the rain. A couple of blocks from my hotel.

Day 4, Tsim Sha Tsui, next to Victoria Harbour

Day 5, Insider Bar in WanChai on a Saturday night.

Sounds like the conditions weren't ideal and I'm not sure about the filters you used but colors, especially greens, look strange on my monitor.

In the film days I used filters (sparingly) but, for the most part, gave them up when I finally switched to digital because post processing programs give me better control over the final results.

ND or polarizing filters  still come in handy but anything that drastically changes the white balance appearance/color just hasn't worked very well for me.

Only wanted to comment on this and don't mean to be critical.
