Does anyone know if its possible to get a CPL whilst using the wide angle lens ?

I think this is a link for one so apparently yes, you can. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/prod...l_fw_mn3_cpl_circular_polarizer_cpl_lens.html and https://www.amazon.com/Freewell-Circular-Polarizer-Camera-Compatible/dp/B0B2PGMHM3 What you see on the Mini3 Pro as you look at the camera is just a cover lens. It comes off and filters, including the CP are put on. However there are very limited circumstances when you would want to do so with a CP. Because a circ pol affects only polarized light, and because light coming directly at or behind the lens is not polarized you will find in many instances you will have a sky that is deep blue in one area and not at all deep blue in another area. If you are only filming the ground or over water you want to be able to see through the CP may be fantastic but otherwise problematic. I think I actually have that CP but have yet to use it more than once. ND fliters are an entirely different story and are useful when flying low to the ground to get a blur but are generally less useful or meaningless when you are flying at 300ft...

Since you weren't specific about the brand, I think that it may depend on the brand, but afaik, the Freewell brand doesn't offer that option as of this date.

Plus, the ND filters available with the Freewell wide angle or anamorphic lenses can only be used on either of those types.

Perhaps Freewell might have a PL or CPL available for either of those 2 in the future, demand depending.

Sorry if this is a daft question, but by "wide angle lens" do you mean the standard lens on the camera, or an anamorphic wide angle lens that you fit to the camera yourself? As mentioned already CPL filters are ten-a-penny. Best brand? FREEWELL
