Pros & Cons
👍 Pros

Frequently Asked Questions
How many stops of light does this filter reduce?
This filter provides a 10-stop (ND 3.0) reduction, allowing you to use significantly slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright conditions.
What does the MRC nano coating do?
The Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) nano finish repels water, dirt, and fingerprints while reducing reflections and flare, making the filter easier to clean and improving image clarity.
Does this filter introduce a color cast to images?
The B+W Master ND 3.0 is designed to remain color-neutral, darkening the scene without shifting color balance.
What is the filter ring made of?
The filter ring is made of brass, which is more durable than aluminum and resists cross-threading on your lens.
Can this filter be stacked with other filters?
Yes, it has standard 72mm threading that allows stacking, though stacking with other filters may increase the risk of vignetting on wider focal lengths.
