10 Stop ND Filter

Hi Folks I am looking to buy a 10 stop ND filter. I have been looking at the B & W as all my lenses are 77mm one filter would do.

I have also looked at the Lee big stopper.

What do you think any ideas please ?

Cheers Goggs

Re: 10 Stop ND Filter

It'll be worth checking stock/delivery before you order Goggs.

I can't remember whether it's the B&W 10 Stop or the Lee Big Stopper but one of them is experiencing very slow production as well as high demand and I've heared a few stories on delivery taking a few months.

Used prices seem steep because of this too as a lot of people don't want the wait.

Re: 10 Stop ND Filter

Very useful filter.

I use Hoya and am very pleased with the results but the viewfinder is veeery dark once it is attached so it's always good to focus before adding it to the lens.
