The 6-stop reduction in light allows for extended exposure times without changing the aperture, enabling creative effects such as rendering running water hazy and soft.
The filter is made from finely ground and polished special glass to ensure superior optical quality. It also features a multi-layer anti-reflective coating and a dirt- and water-repellent outer layer for protection and easy maintenance.
No, ND filters are not suitable for direct visual solar observation due to the risk of blinding. They allow UV- and IR-rays to pass through, which can harm the eyes. Special sun filters for direct observation of the sun are available from astronomy suppliers.
No, the filter provides uniform light attenuation across the entire visible range, resulting in optimally color-neutral image results without color cast.
The multi-layer anti-reflective coating minimizes unwanted reflections, improving the clarity and quality of your images.
Review Summary

After decades of photography I've only recently begun experimenting with ND filters. When I decided to try this out there wasn't even the briefest hesitation that I would choose B+W. They've been my brand of choice for UV filters for the last twenty years, and I feel absolute confidence in their quality and value.

I'm a big fan of B+W filters so I knew when I started to get into M glass that I was gonna need a few. For one thing I wanted an ND filter to be able to achieve some creamy bokeh shots and it does exactly that. Very well made, filters 100% recommend.
