nd filter exposure time calculator online

Use nd filter exposure time calculator online for base shutter s, filter stops. Geometric or data-budget estimate. Sensor behavior, processing, focus breathing and recording overhead are excluded unless explicitly modeled.

How to use it

Enter base shutter s. Set filter stops. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.

Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
base shutter sMain input. Positive values. 0.01
filter stopsOption. Zero or positive values. 6

Calculation method

filtered_shutter_s = base_shutter_s*2^filter_stops (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply nd filter exposure time calculator to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Geometric or data-budget estimate. Sensor behavior, processing, focus breathing and recording overhead are excluded unless explicitly modeled.

Choose the right tool

Exposure equivalence, depth-of-field equivalence and file storage describe different questions. Review whether a value is a focal length, a crop factor, a shutter time, a frame rate or a bitrate before calculating.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Geometric or data-budget estimate. Sensor behavior, processing, focus breathing and recording overhead are excluded unless explicitly modeled.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
