What filters for Mavic pro 2

[Welsh pilot]

Hi everyone
I’ve had drones for 6 years and my Mavic 2 pro got about two years and never used filters
My knowledge is getting better of photography
Can you recommend some filters that won’t break the bank, I’m not looking to spend a fortune as it’s not for a business

Filters to do what?

I use the Freewell variable neutral density filters with no complaints.
Two came in the set, one for if its really sunny & one for if it isn't.
I haven't had to remove the first one I fitted yet, simply turn it to get the desired amount filtration.

Take a look at THIS link

A graduated ND would be good I think, I have one but haven't had the opportunity to try it yet

Filters to do what?

To keep your shutter speed at twice the frame rate giving a natural looking motion blur to your video.

Good answer!

Same here with Freewell VND. I bought the pack last year and never removed the piece I put on day 1. Last weekend I got a chance to try the other piece and only found out it's faulty. Contacted the after-sales, they honoured the lifetime warranty and the replacement is on its way without too much drama. So I would recommend.

ND filters are good for long exposure photography too. I used the ND128 to get the correct shutter speed to create light trails of trains for this pic:View attachment DJI_0991-Edit-Edit-2.jpg

Skyreat are about half the price of polar pro. I had polar pro for the phantom 4 and they were great filters But now I have an air 2 and have a set of skyreat ND filters. I'm not a professional, but the skyreat filters are great for me. They're aluminum and glass, not plastic and they seem to me to be every bit as good.

I have both Freewell and Polar Pros including the ND10K I bought just because it was hard to find not sure I will ever use it being it's 10,000 ND!! Supposed to be very good for long exposure
