The B+W 77mm 3.0 ND 110 Filter is a solid neutral density filter providing a 10 stop exposure. This 3.0 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image* and are ideal for pairing with other filters.
B+W filters are constructed from high quality Schott glass for increased optical clarity and color fidelity. They feature a brass filter ring for durability as well as jamming prevention.
*Note: Due to the amount of additional exposure required to compensate for the density of this filter, some color shifts may occur. Individual testing is recommended before use.

I did a lot of searching before I buy this one.
Compared to some other expensive competitors, B+W is reasonably affordable.
Build quality is amazing. I comes with a plastic case which is NOT as good as the filter istself.
I mainly intended using it for ladscapes and waterscapes. BUT I've read there were some reddish color cast on the photos. I'll talk about this.
Yes the color cast is sometimes disturbingly visible but at some other time it may completely disappear(same place-same settings). This is an inconsistent effect to be honest. After trying it over 40 different places I've concluded :
-ND 3.0 is too dark that you want to focus first then put the filter on. Also dark filter may cause WB problems.
-ND 3.0 is also too dark that you never want to use aperture or shuttter priority modes. They always calculate half the light of enough exposure. So use manual only and shoot again if it's too dark.
-Reddish color cast mainly emerges when your WB settings are automatic. So shoot RAW if you want to be able to fix your images later.
-In bright daylight situations it can give you around 15 seconds of exposure. Which is bad enough for trees etc. to move due to wind and appear bluury on your final image. This is bad for landscapes and you may go for a brighter ND filter.
-In low light situations it causes desaturation sometimes. The image may seem washed out.
-Perfect for waterscapes and rivers. The water may even look like fog.
-It's really hard to clean, I guess it's bacause of it's coating. Even with a microfiber cloth it takes more than 5 minutes to clean it. So use it carefully.
-In a few photos it caused huge reddish cast only in the center of the image(mostly visible on darker areas). I caouldn't find out why.
Would I buy this product again? Yes, definitely!
Bu double it with a ND 1.2 if you're mostly a landscaper.

I purchased this 9 stop ND filter so that I could try some long exposure daylight shots to get that silky water effect and also to experiment with other subjects such as meadows and tree canopies.
It seems to be well made and it is considerably more affordable than some of the other 9-10 stop ND filters. However, it does have a distinct reddish colour cast. This isn't a serious problem for my purposes but some might feel otherwise.
The effect appears to be consistently even throughout the surface.

Comments about B+W 77mm 3.0 ND 110 Filter:
I was looking for a filter to help get some desired sky and water effects while using a long exposure during the sunnier portions of the day. This filter did it. I couldn't find this particular brand filter any where here in Michigan and shout out to B&H for the free shipping to me. Thank you! What I really like is its construction. Very solid well made steel ring and quality glass. I'd buy it again if need be.

Comments about B+W 77mm 3.0 ND 110 Filter:
I bought this filter for the same reason most other people do. I wanted to shoot longer exposures during times of the day with more light. This filter gives me the ability to do that, so I'm happy with it. The filter is of course so dark when on a lens nothing can be seen through the eye piece. Some people say you can see through the filter by using live view, but that didn't work on my Nikon D300. I'm guessing it may work on newer DSLR's. Doesn't really bother me because I tend to slow down and be more thoughtful when shooting with the 10 stop ND anyway, so one extra step of putting the filter on doesn't bug me.

6 stop one is working without problem but 10 stop is changing colors that's mean it is not neutral ND,
you can correct broken result by photoshop but I dont like it,
but I have to say true if you work under briliant sunlight it is able to give long exposure posibility help by f

I have few vari ND filters in different sizes and they work great, but the darkest end sometimes gives some weird polarizing effect into the photos. With this one daylight 30 sec exposures come closer to reality without stopping down too much. I read how some say that it gives a weird colorcast, but i haven't faced that yet.
It can be a bit of a hassle to juggle with plenty filters, especially for video, but as far as photography goes this baby does exactly what it is made for.

Been wanting a 10 stop ND filter for a long time and after careful consideration I opted for the B+W 110ND and haven't looked back.
If you want to get in to long daytime exposures this is a MUST for your kit.
Simple design, great feel, knurled edges for ease of use and a whole lot of dark for your long exposure goodness.

Comments about B+W 77mm 3.0 ND 110 Filter:
After reading some reviews I decided this was a decent screw in filter that would suit my needs, primarily long exposure day time photos. I wasn't disappointed.
It's more or less 10 stops on the dot. I do the typical 1024 multiplier on shutter speed to calculate my exposure.
The only downside to the filter is that you have to screw it in so obviously if your focus ring is affected by this action you're going to have some difficulties. But then again if you're considering a screw in you already knew that.
I've used and stacked Cokin style ND filters in the past and they add a lot of discolouration and are prone to heaving flaring. I haven't seen any flares with the B+W, and the color cast it adds, while noticeable, is nowhere near as abhorrent as what I've seen with something like a Hitech filter.
The filter holder is also well constructed and comes with foam padding to keep it secure.

Also I ordered the product from Australia the week before Storm Sandy. The communication from BW was fantastic and they still shipped the filter in time. Thanks Guys!

I wanted a 10 stop ND filter and looked first at the Big Stopper but decided to go with the ND 3.0 110 instead. All of my lenses, wide angle, mid range telephoto and long telephoto, all have the same diameter, so this filter made sense. It fits more easily into my bag and was available immediately. The Big Stopper was extremely back ordered.

You should expect notinh less than that when buying a B+W product. I have not experienced any flare YET, also this is not a MRC product.But I need to further chllange it. The brass thread is great, and I easyly mount it and remove it also from other non-brass filters' threads.

Comments about B+W 77mm 3.0 ND 110 Filter:
I "cheaped out" on filters before and learned my lesson when my images started looking pretty bad. Not ND filters, mind you, but filters nonetheless. So when I decided I HAD to have a ND filter, instead of letting my cheapness get the better of me and go with the least-expensive one I could find, I did a LOT of research. Initially, I wanted a variable ND filter but decided to go with the 10-stopper after doing my research. For what I wanted this for (making silky water, making people disappear, and just doing all-out creative things with it), this is what I wanted. It's expensive, yes, but I don't plan on buying another one of these for a long, long time. Go with quality and you'll spend less over time, as you won't be wanting to upgrade after a few months. The filter comes with a hard shell plastic case. This is great because I don't have a filter case. I was able to stick the plastic case in my backpack without worry of damage. Yes, it is DARK -- it's supposed to be dark -- it's a 10-stop filter, people! I cannot see anything through the viewfinder, but throw it on Live View and you're in business. I haven't had a ton of time to play with it yet, but so far, I love it. It's getting me the exact results that I wanted. The waterfall photo I included with this review was taken over a busy day at the park -- keep in mind, there were people CRAWLING *in* the waterfall. With the long exposure this filter allows, the people disappear and the water looks silky. I can't wait to play with it some more!For reference, I am using a Nikon D5100 with the 18-300mm lens.
