i have two sets from polar pro, the first fell off straight away, diameter too big, the second set they sent, obstructs gimbal, so in 3 months i havnt used a single filter, not very stoked!

Id like to know anyone else's experience with the filters or some advice on some filters that work?
Cheers

Yes I ordered yesterday around 11:30 am Mountain Time and there were only 2 left.

Well that's great for you but a tad disappointing. I've had mine on order for almost 3 weeks. Not sure why they wouldn't fill existing orders first.

Do you have the Cinema series filters? My understanding is that the original design had the issues you're describing but they pulled those and replaced them with the Cinema series which fixes those issues.

I'm new to all of this (still waiting for my Mavic to arrive)
I was wondering why you would buy the 6 filters - why would you not use the polarised filters all the time?

Hey Guys! So a lot of people have been asking for videos showing our new Cinema Series filters in action. These are a few shots I compiled over the last two months during testing. Shot with the Mavic, Phantom 4 Pro, and Inspire 2 X5S. Let me know if you have any questions!

Question: Do these filter interfere with the Mavic gimbal during start up? I have heard that some of the ND filters offered for the Mavic restrict the Gimbal movement when goes through it's initialization?

Nope, all of our filters will now pass through gimbal initialization

Currently only the US has stock until our inventory becomes unconstrained. International shipping is not too expensive and is pretty quick to the UK.

The ND/PL filters will increase color saturation and improve contrast.

The Straight ND filters will only reduce the shutter speed and not change any color profiles.

It all depends on the look you are going for, I personally use the ND/PL's a lot of the time, but sometimes will use the Straight ND's when I am trying to create a video that is more neutrally toned.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

All of the Amazon orders direct through us have shipped.
If you ordered from Amazon I would recommend contacting them to ask for more info on availability and shipping.

Thanks!

I received my filters this week. They are SO hard to get off.. my ND-16-PL is now completely stuck... Does someone know how to get these things off without completely destroying the ginbal? Not happy at all at this point

Just takes a little practice. I pull back a portion a little at a time and seems to come off just fine. I've also noticed the gimbal lock helps too

It is tough to push them off without finger printing the lense. It has become second nature to carry a microfiber towel with me!

 

[BertNewton]

I got it on and off once initially.. now it is somehow completely stuck. I think the gold ring on the lens has shifted and now the filter is completely stuck.
A bit of foam on the inside of the filter would have been so much easier than the metal spring IMO....
