Hi,
I need a recommendation to a rounded 77mm ND 10stops filter which is suitable for wide angle lenses (AKA sigma 10-20)
The budget is around 100$.

Thanks for the helpers :)

Take a look at the B+W 3.0

and if you absolutely have to be $100 or less try the Hoya 9-stop (ND400). Yeah, it's not 10-stop, but it's a little cheaper.

I've been looking into one as well, but I'm too cheap to do it properly :P. That, and I'm a student, so I've been heavily considering this:

I called Ace and Home Depot, and neither of them seem to carry welding glass on its own, however. But they do sell it on Amazon for about 10 bucks, so I'm thinking of picking it up on there.

I was going to make a new thread, but I have a question under this topic. If someone has nd filter advice, it would be great.

Which should I go for?
- one Tiffen 3 stop and one B+W 6 stop filter
- one Hoya 9 stop filter
- or one B+W 10 stop filter?

I am planning to take pictures of waterfalls and whatnot. I feel having one quality filter is good, but having 2 will be more versatile, especially if I am shooting throughout the day on a vacation. I am mostly afraid brand mixing may give me some wonky color casting. Can all color issues be fixed by shooting raw and PP? TIA.

You'll get color cast no matter what company's NDs you use if you're using them for long exposures so shooting raw is a given. 2 will be more versatile but you may have to deal with the filters vignetting your frame if double/triple stacking (CPL) to get to maximum stoppage during the day.

I have the 72mm of Hoya x400 9 stops works awesome

The B+W is $125.00 and one stop more, but I doubt it is gonna make that much of a difference.

Screw in filters take a little more time to setup and more careful execution as well. I would take a look at some options for drop in, square filters. I went with the 10-Stop 110ND B+W because I want to have extreme long exposures and want to have waterfalls, water, and clouds super blurred (in terms of motion). In any case, you need a nice sturdy tripod to make sure nothing is moved while you working on the camera add/removing filters.

ND FIlters will do that, especially the large the stop, I get is sometimes on my 3stop Hoya. Try extending the exposure time. But is might also be the 10-22 ultra wide contributing as well.
