I'm sticking with Polar Pro

[FASTFJR]

Unless someone has a better & cheaper option. I've used them on my Phantoms and Inspire. I never did order a set for the Mavic I sent to my son. My "New" arrives on Thursday and I want to order a set.

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the.......
DJI Mavic Filters - Cinema Series 6-Pack
DJI Mavic Filter Professional 6-Pack

I'm assuming since the Cinema Series are more expensive they are made with a higher quality glass?


Thanks

This "high quality glass" guerrilla sales pitch is BS, imho. I use Neewers (3x cheeper) and never noticed any image degradation or distortion. I won't be surprised if I learned the glass for all filters is actually made by the same supplier.

Tell me more about these Neewers.
Can they be mounted during gimbal calibration?

Ok.. sorry for my English..
Can they be attached to the lens during startup?

Mounting process is exactly the same with Polar pro. I use another relatively inexpensive set of filters from Amazon. I got 4 filters (4,8,16,32) for like 30 bucks and it works great. I really wanted 32 cause I live in a sunny country for now and 16 wouldn't cut it

The Polar pro is like 80bucks for 3 so didn't make any sense for me

Not sure the brand... Could've been neewer

Why do you insist on attaching them during startup? Is there anyone holding a gun to your head forcing you to do that?

I had some trouble with the Neewers at first,but found that if you get them on perfectly straight they don't interfere with gimbal movement. The set includes a 32, I don't think the PPdoes, and if you want to shoot at 50 or 60 fps in bright sun you'll need a 32.

@DaLorD is asking if they can be attached to the camera before powering on the Mavic.

The answer is yes.

The look good but it looks like they don't sell a ND 32 / PL or any PL's

"During gimbal calibration" means chasing the camera as it swings all around and trying to put the filter on.

I Have used neewers and calibrates fine but do not fit when gimbal live use gimbal lock and will go on easily and remove with no prob!
I have bought 2 HUHU filters The UV is fine but the CPL is too deep and fouls the gimbal on calibration! Avoid it!

What? What does "do not fit when gimbal live" mean?
I have 6 Neewer filters...They go on easily, no problems with them during calibration, and no problems what so ever any time after that. I typically just leave one on at all times, unless it is particularly cloudy, or I need to put a darker one on. Zero problems at any time.

Pgytech.To me,Polar Pro is the equivalent to Snap On tools,sure it's a quality item but the price?????Nothing wrong with Craftsman tools,quality without the price tag i.e.,pgytech.

Well now, XDP, that's just snotty and unhelpful ... I am able to keep my PP or Skytreat filters attached 24/7, even during startup.

You forgot the most important quote --> "Ok.. sorry for my English.."

Nobody is going to attempt to install a filter while the gimbal is being calibrated

Yes, but have you tried attaching it while the gimbal swings the camera during calibration? Apparently, there's an adrenaline rush doing this that is highly sought after.
