The 6-stop ND filter reduces the amount of light entering the camera by six f-stops, allowing for longer exposure times and wider apertures in bright conditions. This is useful for capturing images with a shallow depth of field or shooting in low light conditions without a tripod.
No, the filter is made from finely ground and polished special glass, ensuring optimal optical quality without negatively impacting the performance of your high-quality lens.
The filter features a multi-layer anti-reflective component with seven layers per filter side to prevent annoying reflections. It also has a dirt- and water-repellent outer layer for protection and easy cleaning.
No, the filter should not be used for direct visual solar observation due to the risk of eye damage from UV and IR rays. For safe solar observation, use special sun filters available from astronomy suppliers.
No, the filter provides uniform light attenuation across the entire visible range, resulting in color-neutral image results that are true to life.
Review Summary
2026-03-31T20:52:23
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.

Because capturing the perfect shot often requires precise control over lighting, the 52mm Master 806M ND 1.8 6-Stop MRC Nano Neutral Density Filter is an essential tool for photographers. This high-quality filter significantly reduces light entering the camera by six f-stops, transforming an exposure time of 1/60 s into a full second without altering the aperture or depth of field. This feature allows photographers to render running water as hazy and soft, creating stunning, ethereal images.
Constructed from finely ground and polished special glass, this durable filter ensures optimal optical quality without negatively impacting the performance of your high-quality lens. The filter utilizes advanced thin-film technology, which not only provides the pure ND filter effect but also incorporates a coating combination that enhances the filter's performance.
This effective filter features a multi-layer anti-reflective component with seven layers per filter side, effectively preventing annoying reflections that can mar your images. The filter is also coated with a dirt- and water-repellent outer layer, making it easy to clean and maintain while providing all-around protection.
The light attenuation of this versatile filter is uniform across the entire visible range, producing color-neutral image results that are true to life. Please note that while this reliable ND filter is a powerful tool for photography, it should not be used for direct visual solar observation due to the risk of eye damage from UV and IR rays. For safe solar observation, please use special sun filters available from astronomy suppliers.
