ND filter?

[Sevier456]

Anyone know a good brand of ND filters to purchase ??

I keep a list of commonly used Mavic ND filters here. If you decide to stray from that list, make sure you check out the reviews.

Great ND filters are Polar Pro! I've written a review here about them Flyby Media | London based drone operator Enjoy

That's what I was nervous about.. being able to leave it on even when I am not flying also if it would get jammed up when I turn on the drone and the camera turns about. Thanks guys Polar pro will be receiving a portion of my pay check today.

I bought some from eBay for about £27 for six. I haven't tried them yet but i had them on for a moment and noticed that because they fit in over the front of the camera they prevent the gimbal from doing its checks after my mavic had been turned on so i will need to put them on afterwards (although i will need to take them on and off after flights because i don't want to store the mavic between flights worth them on anyway). I can't believe how expensive they can be though

I just bought the PolarPro 6 filter set. They fit snugly and can be left on; no gimbal calibration issues.

It was the positive comments from fellow forum folk that got me aware of the brand and Amazon reviews cemented the purchase. Only tried one filter so far - the ND16 polarised one - and it seems very good.

Amazon UK sell them but UK prices are steep. I believe there are ND filters without polarised lenses so take care you choose the correct item for your requirements. I nearly bought the wrong set...

Polar Pro definitely seems to be the fan favourite:

But if you looking to save a few bucks this is another decent looking option:
