B+W ND 110 filter exposure chart

After some long searches on the net i came across these exposure times for getting the correct exposure, i hope this will help for those who have or plan to purchase this type of filter.

I have made it into a sticky so that it doden't get lost. I've also uploaded the text so that it's easier to copy and paste into a software like office word for printing...to make it easy i split my page in half so that it didn't run into 2 pages??

Thanks for posting this table, I use this filter but have never been quite so scientific about my exposure times, more suck it and see!!

Divide by 60 will get about the right answer.

Had my first chance to try mine out yesterday on a sunset on Brancaster beach. 2/3 though the exposure a larger than average ripple washed round the tripod legs. Scrub one exposure emoticon

Ok

if the reading without a filter is 1/125 a 6 stop filter gives you 1/2 a second 1/250 would be 1/4 and 1/60th would be one second. On the beach I was shooting one and 2 minute exposures to give good blur. You'll struggle to get that slow on only a six stopper quite often. Depends what you want to achieve with it.

Hmm.. I was thinking 10 stops might be too much for just getting flowing water in streams and waterfalls etc

Then I realised I dont have any streams or waterfalls in Norfolk! Not one - it's true folks! (emoticon)

So actually it would be beaches so you're right Bill 10 stops would be better

btw I can work out exposures ok on my head by just mentally counting up or down fstops but when it comes to actualy multiplying or dividing I need paper! Awkward in the field

Always a rush too as the light is fading emoticon
I've a dummy list written in indelible ink on the inside of the lid of the filter box
so I can see the settings I need immediately as I get the filter out.
