Thanks for the comment Cymryflyer. I didn’t think variable ND would solve the problem in the video, but I find them interesting because you can set it to ND6 for example. Now graduated ND filters are also very interesting, actualy didn’t know that they were available for drones.

That sounds great. Got my ND filters for Christmas, so I will hold on to these for a while, but the 'in between' settings sound perfect. I try to calculate which ND-filter I need and than take the closest I have, but sometimes that is just not enough and needs correction in post.

Do you ever use 2.7K 60p? What are your thoughts about it?

I just saw a video on YT about Freewell Variable ND filters. Looks good. I use Pgytech at the moment (4/8/16/32/64).

Hi guys, I did not got back in the air, but I did try to re-edit the original clips. It's a bit brighter now and the best I can do with my (little) knowledge on Final Cut.

Thanks for the helpful information! I know it wasn't the perfect day for a very good video, so I was wondering how you guys handle these situations.

I wish I could use Premiere, but Final Cut seemed a better deal for a beginner like me.

Thank you Dale. I will try your approach and see if I can improve my skills on it. What brand/type of ND filers do you use? Variable sounds interesting.

I understand and will do another flight to try your suggestions. Thanks for being so helpful

no I use FCPX

I do have the original clip. I will try and see what happens and let you know.

wow this explanation made things very clear to me! With the link Slub provided above and your comment I will try to find the minimum height for similar shots. I didn’t want to move to 2.7K60p since it seems to crop and I was afraid I would lose to much quality and bringing to much noise. But I...

great link! Many thanks for sharing!

Thanks, I will re-edit the whole thing (also lot to learn on grading).

do you mean the sand on the lower half of the screen does not look choppy to you? If I leave it at 30p it looks smooth put in this video (Sample1) the lower half looks choppy or stuttering. I have this on my MBP, iPhone and television.
