B+W 46mm XS-Pro Digital Variable ND MRC-Nano Filter Summary

The B+W 46mm XS-Pro Digital Variable ND MRC-Nano Filter (Vario) can be used for a wide range of subjects and photographic requirements. Rotating the filter provides between 1-5 Stops exposure reduction with the overall image darkening. This is useful particularly to adjust exposure when filming in brighter conditions and for long exposure photography.

Portrait photographers can also use the 46mm XS-Pro Digital Variable ND MRC-Nano Filter from B+W to achieve a large aperture in bright light in order to separate their model optically from the background. Using several minutes of exposure time, architectural photographers can make people passing through the motif “invisible”. In landscape photography, flowing water or the surface of the sea can be made to appear fluffy and soft with long exposure times: classic situations which make the use of an  indispensable.

Thanks to its infinitely variable density, the B+W Vario ND filter can be adjusted exactly to individual requirements. To this end, it comes with a continuous setting function with which the photographer can determine the required density between +1 and +5 f-stops. To prevent aberrations, the light reduction cannot be set beyond a critical level. The XS-Pro Digital ND Vario MRC nano thus guarantees professional image results, even with high filter factors.

Thanks to the double-sided multi-coating layer, the proven B+W MRC (Multi Resistant Coating) nano coating eliminates unwanted stray light and delivers visibly more brilliant colours and higher contrasts. Due to the extremely low residual reflection, ghost or multiple images which occur due to back reflection from the image sensor are also avoided. The outer layer treated with nano technology (lotus effect) allows water to bead off far better and makes cleaning the filter easier.

Tip: DSLR photographers should cover or close the optical viewfinder during longer exposure times in order to avoid measuring errors. Like all B+W ND filters the XS-Pro Digital ND Vario MRC nano also works on a colour-neutral basis. At high densities, slight chromatic aberrations in the image may occur for physical reasons. These can subsequently be eliminated with ease using white balance or by working in RAW format in the image-editing program. When using a full-frame camera , the focal length should be no less than 35 mm to achieve maximum image quality when selecting higher densities.
