Mavic 2 Pro ND Filter choise?

[xagoras]

Hi guys. I'm new to drones. Just bought the Mavic 2 Pro and been enjoying it so far. I'm looking to buy some ND filters for it. Was looking at Polar Pro site, but I'm a bit confused as to which exactly will be useful for my own needs. I'll be using it primarly for recreational purposes and mostly in bright sunlight. I live in Crete, Greece so for the most part of the year filters will be probably needed. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Don't limit your search to PolarPro...they seem to be having shipping and communication problems lately so I'd be looking elsewhere...

@Skyreat and @fstop.labs are 2 brands that advertise here and seem to be finding favor with other pilots...

In greece I'd be looking at the larger value (32, 64, 128) ND's and probably 2 of the mid-range PL/ND combos to get through the heavy reflections off both the light colors (sand and buildings) as well as making that beautiful water transparent...

I'm not limiting my search in Polar Pro. I just came across their site and was looking through their listings. Definitely open to suggestions from experienced users.

Do you fly over the water? You can save yourself some $$ by getting ND's, or if softness is okay, you can always stop down to f11, but your images will be soft!

At the moment I'm limiting my flights on dry land. Still trying to figure out how everything works on the drone. Eventually however, when trust is built on the craft, I will try out some above the sea flights.
