B+W 806 ND 1.8 MRC Nano XS-Pro Digital Filter
The B+W 806 ND 1.8 MRC Nano XS-Pro Digital Filter is a high-quality neutral density (ND) filter designed to reduce the amount of light entering the camera lens by six f-stops. This reduction allows photographers to use slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright lighting conditions, enabling creative effects such as motion blur in flowing water or achieving a shallow depth of field.
Key Features
- Optical Density 1.8: Corresponding to a 64x reduction in light, equating to six f-stop reductions.
- Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) Nano: The filter features B+W's MRC Nano coating, which provides enhanced protection against scratches, water, and dirt. This coating also minimizes reflections and ghosting, ensuring high image quality.
- Construction: Crafted from high-quality SCHOTT glass for optimal optical clarity and color fidelity. The filter frame is made of brass with a matte black finish to prevent reflections.
- Slim Design: The XS-Pro Digital mount is an extra-wide design suitable for DSLRs with wide-angle and zoom lenses, helping to prevent vignetting. However, due to its slim profile, it may not have front threads for additional filters or lens caps.
