If you follow me on Flickr you know that recently I've purchased a 10 stop ND filter and I've bee using it frequently. I've recently been getting a few questions on how to use it, after all the filter is extremely dark and can be a bit tricky.
The particular ND filter that I got is a B+W slim 3.0 filter. The slim part of the filter cuts down and helps to prevent vignetting. It personally took me a while to figure out how the number of stops are indicated in the names of the various ND filters that are available. The higher the number the darker the filter. For a 10 stop you need to look for 3.0.
