B+W 110 (3.0) MRC NDx1000 62mm Neutral Density Filter Features
• 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.
• Light reduction by 10 f-stops
• F-PRO Professional Grade Filter
• SH - Screw In Mount
• MRC- Multi-Resistant Coating
B+W 110 (3.0) MRC NDx1000 62mm 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.
• Extra-Slim Mounting Rings that Eliminate Problems Associated with SLR Wide-angle and Telephoto Imaging
The B+W standard filter mount F-Pro provides some substantial enhancements over the previous B+W standard mount. It has been given a shallower design while maintaining the excellent material and production quality and its unchanged high mechanical stability and can therefore now also be used without any risk of vignetting for many wide-angle lenses. While no exact focal length limit can be given, since the vignetting depends not only on the height of the filter mount, but also on the tube design of the lens, it can generally be considered that the B+W standard filter mount F-Pro can be used without any vignetting with 35 mm film, and indeed always up to 35 mm, almost always at 28 mm and frequently even at 24 mm focal length.
Another advantage of the new F-Pro mount is that the screw ring which holds the filter glass in the mount is no longer inserted from the front, but from the rear. This means that the screw ring can no longer be loosened unintentionally after an additional filter or a lens hood has been screwed on (too tightly) and then unscrewed again.
