This 6-stop, 67mm Solid ICE ND Filter has a 64x filter factor that provides a 6-stop exposure reduction. Its 1.8 optical density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed without overexposing your image. By slowing your exposure time, you can create motion blur for special effects or to convey a sense of movement. Opening your iris allows you to create shallow depth of field, which can help isolate your subject. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters.

This neutral density filter is constructed from tempered, optical glass for shock resistance, clarity, and color fidelity. It features a slim aluminum alloy filter ring that helps prevent vignetting while remaining durable and lightweight.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I see the filter does not protrude from the sides like most NDs. Can you use the original lens hood with this filter?

A: Most likely, yes, but it depends on the lens and the hood.

Q: 2. The spec mention setting your WB to Daylight. Did you do that? I shoot in RAW so I’m not sure why a WB setting is necessary.

A: Although one might shoot a RAW file, it is best to make as many adjustments in-camera so that the post production is minimal, hence the recommendation for setting the white balance to daylight.

Q: 3. How well will this work with a near-IR film like Ilford SFX?

A: The Ice 52mm HB760 Infrared Filter blocks UV / Visible Light under 760nm. This will not work with Ilford SFX 200 Black and White Negative Film that only has sensitivity up to 740nm. Near IR film does not have the sensitivity to work with this filter.

Q: 4. Is this a glass or film filter?

A: The Ice 77mm Solar Mc Nd100000 (Includes Magnetic Adapter Ring) is a glass filter.

Q: 5. Gonna be asking the same question here. Can I attach this magnetic light pollution filter to the Freewell magnetic VND system?

A: While the Ice 82mm Magnetic Light Pollution Filter & Magnetic Adapter and the Freewell Magnetic Base Ring for VND Filters (82mm) are both magnetic filters, the Ice filters have not been tested on the Freewell magnetic base. Also, the Freewell filters and magnetic base are special order items not kept in our inventory, nor are on display in our NYC Superstore. We cannot test these items for compatibility. There is a possibility the items may be used with one another, but we have no confirmation on this.

Q: 6. Can you confirm this filter can be used to film the solar eclipse? What's the total time frame?

A: The Marumi 77mm DHG ND-100000 Solid Neutral Density 5.0 Solar Eclipse Filter (16.5 Stops) is unsuitable for photographing the solar eclipse. The filter does not cut harmful IR and UV light.

Q: 7. Does the filter separate so you can place one end on the diagonal and the other on the eyepiece for easy adjustment?

A: Yes, the lenses of the Ice Variable Polarizing Filter (1.25") can be separated.

Q: 8. Is this filter, ND100,000 safe to photograph the sun? For a prolong period like a solar eclipse , 4-6 hours?

A: 4-6 hours is a lot. Usually an eclipse you take a photo that is fractions of a second. This ICE Magco Solar filter does not list reducing UV and infrared. If you plan on doing long exposures of the sun I recommend a filter that reduces UV and infrared like this one DayStar Filters 90mm White-Light Universal Lens Solar Filter https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1319794-REG

Q: 9. spectrum?

A: This filter is designed to block yellow sodium-vapor light. Unfortunately the manufacturer does not provide spectral curve charts for their filter. We do have some test examples on our site where you can see how this compares to similar filters. Please check the article here to see the tests. https://bhpho.to/3xeHXuA

Q: 10. My lens has a 77 mm thread. I'm not sure what the "magnetic adapter ring" is for?

A: Ice 77mm Solar Mc Nd100000 is not a screw in filter. The adapter ring screws into the 77 mm thread and the ND filter will magnetically attach to the ring.
