B+W 103 (0.9) SH NDx8 77mm Neutral Density Filter
B+W gray filters are available in a number of values (1, 2, 3, 6 and 10 f-stops) and permit wide aperture even when it is very bright for low depth of field and an interplay of sharpness and blur and/or long exposure times for motion blur or wiping effects (speed emphasis or flow of water). They also permit 'normal' time values and f-stop values when the film sensitivity is too high for the prevailing light. Gray filters with higher density (3 to 0 f-stops) are also used for technical photography, e.g. shots of lit lamp filaments, of combustion processes and procedures in melting ovens as well as for astrophotography.
CAUTION: These filters must not be used for the direct visual observation of the sun (they can cause severe burn to the retina up to total blindness!) since they transmit too much infrared for this purpose; special dielectric solar filters and AstroSolar Film are available for this.
Why B+W over other filter brands?
• B+W filters have been made with Schott glass which guarantees the very highest glass quality. Good quality cameras and lenses are a major investment and at B+W we believe that if you should have the best quality filters. There’s no point in buying an expensive, optically superior lens, only to put a piece of inferior glass over the front of it!
• B+W filters are also coated with state of the art coatings – B+W are the first filter manufacturer in the world to offer multi resistant coatings (MRC). The coatings are extremely low-reflective and highly resistant to scratching, but above all the unique dirt and water-repellent surface makes cleaning the filters easier.
• B+W filters all feature brass mounts, designed to fix the high-quality filter glass in position “for life”. Brass mounts won’t bind with your lens thread, or other filters – a major advantage over cheaper filters.
