20 Best Nd Filter For Dji Mini 2 (2023 Updated)

I purchased this filter especially for shooting videos with my Fuji camera, considering that a variable ND filter is more flexible than a fixed value ND filter for this purpose. I also use this filter for time lapse photography, for example during sunset (holy grail), to have more options to influence exposure without using high ISO settings too much.

Using B+W filters since years, and reading all the positive reviews of this filter, it was an easy decision to go for this filter. The filter in general works great! It provides the stated range of f-stops, changing the intensity is smooth and exact and I do not recognize any negative color cast effect in my videos or images.

The filter also does not show significant vignetting when using at 16mm on my Fuji 16-55mm f/2. 8 (DX). The small drawbacks: The outer diameter of the filter is too big as that you can still mount and use the lens hood and the inner diameter is so big so that you cannot use anymore the lens cap.

But this are small drawbacks compared to the overall quality and the versatility of this filter. Yes, the filter is quite expensive, but for me it makes no sense to put a cheap filter with questionable IQ on good glass.

And there are definitely even more expensive filters available, so this filter hits for me simply the sweet spot. My personal summary: a really good filter, definitely recommended!.

This is a very versatile variable ND filter I use for 4k video with Canon 5div. I took test shots from 1 to 5 stop and noticed no degradation in sharpness at 30MP 100% and 200% crop. The surprising thing is that I am getting better color with this filter out of 5div, it seems AWB works very nicely with it and improves already superb skin tones.

I am a hybrid shooter and need to able to switch from photo to video in a pinch when using my 5div. I just leave this filter on and when shooting stills, leave the ring at the minimum effect and rotate all the to five stops when switching to video (depending on the light).

It is very convenient, and no impact on IQ for stills while very acceptable shutter speed hit at the lowest setting in daylight (I usually shoot f2 and wider). 5 stop is ideal range for video and so far had worked well for me even in brightest California sun conditions when f2 combined with 5-stop ND gives me the right exposure for 1/60s shutter speed (4k/30p).

DPAF continuous focus does not seem to be impacted at all by this filter. Some mentioned that it also works as polarizer: thankfully, I did not find this to be the case – it works as ND and does nothing for the sky.

Polarizers have negative impact on portraiture by flattening the skin which is impossible to correct in post so I am glad this filter functions as just ND. The only inconvenience is that I can’t use lens hoods with this filter on as the outer diameter is 82mm but I believe most if not all Variable ND filters have similar issue.

The price is surprisingly low for such first rate optics.

Solid ND filters, did the job at peak sun, on the beach shooting with sun as backlight. When faced the direct sun, water was blown out, but that is to be expected with the thin glass. Water looked great though, cut through to see reefs.

Just what we were looking for! Prompt arrival and good service.

Quality set of ND filters, light weight and the perfect addition for cinematic filming with my Mavic Mini.

These work as advertised and supremely easy to attach. They feel sturdy and the case is of good quality. These are a worthwhile investment for those who want to shoot according to the 180 degree rule.

If you are shooting at 30FPS, set your shutter speed to 60th/sec for smooth and realistic motion blur. Use these ND filters to help cut down the light during daytime to reach your ideal shutter speed.

I bought this set to replace the Polar Pro nd filters which I lost because they would fall off the Osmo Pocket. These seem less likely to get brushed off because they are thinner. The case is also smaller and more suited to carry in my pocket.

If you’re wondering Will I actually use these? Should I add them to the kit? The answer is yes. They fit in the Mavic Mini case perfectly, and the variability of these is great. Very clean glass, no weirdness at the edges.

These are some of the items a Mini 2 drone pilot must have, especially if you are trying to achieve motion blur due to the 180-degree rule on a bright day knowing that the mini 2 aperture is fixed to f2.

8. The polarizers do their job fantastically in reducing the glare. Also, they don’t affect the balance of the gimbal at all because they are extremely light.

Great product, does exactly what I’d expected, and really easy to fit to the gimble on the Mavic drone. Highly recommended.

It’s just a great product, still new to these things but changed a filter and there is a noticeable difference, but the greatest thing of all was a great price that I got them for, thank you.

Very well made. Fits my drone perfectly. Should make videos prettier.

I had Osmo pocket for few months. I know its not new release product, so I will make my review short straightforward. PROS Its very very very small camera with gimbal 4K video 60fpsThis is the only 2 reasons people go for this product.

You put a 5 inch around 13cm long camera in you pocket. This is why DJI could sell it for 250300 for such little gadget. CONS If you want to use it with full function, you need to purchase more accessories.

Not rugged, you need be look after it. Base on my experience, you need prepare at least another 100 for accessories. If you want to link Pocket with mobile phone, use mobile device as bigger screen or control with it.

You need a phone holder and tripod. People said the audio doesnt match video quality, but after my upgrade the software they all fine. But DJI doesnt design a 3. 5mm jack for external microphone. If you need high quality audio then you have to buy a C type audio port.

Need a controller wheel for better control. If you need to fix it in the car or should bag, you need accessory mount. Anyway, its good fun to take video with Osmo Pocket, enjoy it.

Bought mine the day they were released and have absolutely ‘no’ buyer remorse. There are heaps of reviews on YouTube where you can see the video it can produce (excellent), but I do note all the reviewers agree this camera is a game changer.

It really is a 4K ‘pocket’ camera with broadcast quality video and so easy to take with you. Yes your (expensive?) phone camera can take 4K but not with the smoothness that this Osmo Pocket can achieve.

No it’s not as robust as a GoPro and you can’t use it under water without an enclosure, but it is very well made and I’m blown away with the results (operator errors excepted) The one downside I found was DJI’s insistence on ‘Activating’ their products before you can use them.

In the case of the Osmo Pocket this is aggravated by needing a Smart Phone with a ‘USB C” connection to plug the Pocket into. Not helpful if you have a phone with a Micro USB connection – however – I found with an ‘OTG’ adaptor (e.

g OnePlus OTG C) I was able to connect to my Galaxy 7 and not only activate it but use the Mimo sotware The LCD screen is big enough for framing reasonably accurately, and the touch interface for controlling modes/settings/reviewing film/photos works well.

Switching between video and photo is easy (single short press of the on/off button) and the quality of the 12 Mp photos is as good as any smartphone. The shooting angle of 80 degree’s is wide enough while avoiding fish eye distortion so common in action cameras.

Panorama’s (180 degree Pano or 3×3 wide angle) are dead easy to take though at the moment can only be viewed on camera or in the Mimo software (IOS/Android) My pick though is exporting these Pano/Wide Angle shots will be high on the developers list of must do’s, let alone the keen app writers out there looking for an opportunity.

FWIW the Pano photo’s are in a separate folder on the Micro SD card and could be stitched together with Photoshop or any similar editor. Accessories are not too expensive, though at the time of review have not reached retailers.

Interested to note the overseas Auction sites and other sources have heaps of accessories available now so they are picking the Pocket will be a success. Overall I think the Osmo Pocket is a nice balance between size, performance and price.

For Pro ‘A’ roll use your Osmo Plus or DSLR on a Ronin would probably be better, but then having removable batteries, mic inputs, headphone and video outputs, follow focus adaptors etc goes way outside of what the Pocket is about.

For small discreet, Vlogging and B roll filming it can’t be beat. For the keen amateur / semi pro it is just so much easier to use than a Smartphone/ Action camera to get that shake free video. For Poppa videoing the grandkids, so dam simple to use.

I don’t know where to start talking about these two miracles,. I am a YouTuber and I searched for a long time before buying these two cameras, each of them has special capabilities. The small one is very light, the , designed for outdoor photography, is very resistant to vibrations, and I only feel the rotation of the selfie, as for Sony zv1 , it is amazing.

A lot, but it is a little heavy. I find the Osmo lighter and more comfortable outside. I put it in my pocket quickly, but for indoor use, the Sony is the best. It was designed primarily for vlog. Its sound is great and it has a face filter as well.

The filters are pretty nice. Very lightweight. I only ever get gimbal overload errors if the camera calibrates with the filter on, and then that’s not very often. * First minor issue – lacking ND64 I really really really wish this kit included ND64, or at least offer ND64 as a separate purchase option.

Reasoning: The DJI FPV drone’s only means of setting exposure are ISO and shutter. It does not have a changeable aperture setting. The ISO only goes down to 100, and for ‘best’ cinematic motion blur, setting shutter at 2x recording framerate if shooting 4k60fps means a shutter of 120.

Sometimes on a bright day 100ISO and 120 shutter is still a little too bright even with ND32 in use. Second minor issue – Longevity part 1 These filters have what feels like a very very thin rubber/grippy surface on the inside face of the ‘barrel’ that slides over the drone’s camera.

On my ND8, there are some ripples in this material close to the filter lens itself. It doesn’t seem to affect anything, but it’s a little unsightly. Slightly concerned it may begin to peel off over time.

Third minor issue – Longevity part 2 I’ve also noticed a slightly looser fit on them the more put them on and take them off the drone – more so on the ND16 than the others. The ND16 is loose enough even when pushed onto the camera all the way that I’m a little worried that mildly aggressive flight maneuvers may cause the filter to come off the aircraft.

It doesn’t seem to twist on the camera at all, but the straight on, straight off level of friction is not quite tight enough to inspire long-term confidence. I haven’t lost one yet, but I don’t fly all that often either.

I suspect it may only be a matter of time before I lose one, possibly a very early happenstance for someone that flies with these filters on a very frequent basis. *Sometimes in the full up or full down position, during calibration or while running the gimbal manually, the size of the filter (while smaller and lighter than other options) can cause it to get stuck against the aircraft’s body that surrounds the camera gimbal, causing the gimbal overload.

If these filters were just a tiny hair smaller in diameter this would be a non-issue. This is mostly just a very minor thing I figured I’d mention since competitors seem to be the cause a lot of gimbal overload error complaints.

I enjoy the quality of Polar Pro ND Filters on my Pro Amateur gear Kits; however on the DJI FPV this wasn’t the best Housing decision. In order to attach these Polar Pro dji FPV shutter collection ND Filters, it involves a Forceful press into the Gimbal and it’s housing (I can see that over time this will cause much damage to the DJI unit); this should’ve been a threaded or Magnetic adapter Kit.

And the care was done to provide a snug seal; however I have already lost One filter due to it falling off the Gimbal mid Flight (luckily just my 8ND; but still…).

Great quality. Got here extremely fast and timely. Happy with the purchase

TranslateShow in original language近年は気象条件が冴えない日々が多くなり、メリハリの有る画像が得にくくなりました。やはり撮るからには納得出来る色味が欲しくて77mm径を購入。想っていた以上にシッカリと配慮された製品でした。未だ試し撮りだけですが期待出来そうですね。悩みは77mmのレンズキャップが大き過ぎて合わない。セットしたままの収納は出来ません。仕方ないですね。 追記 セットしたままの収納に適した(ニコン フ-ドハットM)というソフトキャップが有ります。本来は広角や望遠の大口径用ですが、ネオプレンゴム素材で多少伸び縮みしますのでしなやかにフィットします。他にSとLサイズが有りますよ。.

I bought the Vivid collection and these tiny filters fit onto the DJI Mini 3 Pro drone with ease and feel good quality. Having tested them for colour I see no issues. They come in a handy case great for storage and is big enough to hold the stock DJI lens hood which comes with the drone.

The packaging is low impact and fully recyclable which is also a selling point for me. My only negative is that we could do with some stronger filters due to the fast aperture of the camera. An ND64, ND128, and ND1000 would be very welcome additions in the future.

I would recommend these filters if you are in the market.

These are great filters but with the very bright f/1. 7 aperture of the DJI Mini 3 camera lens I would hope to see much darker ND and ND/PL combo filters, such as ND64/PL, ND256/PL, and even ND 1000/PL.

Other filter companies make ND64/PL combos, and some make ND1000 or ND2000 (ND only) but I can’t find anything darker than 64 for ND/PL combo filters. Cutting the glare on water and making it smooth with a long exposure is really nice and higher density ND/PL combos would be perfect for that.

As usual, PolarPro delivers great filters. That’s why i never put anything else on my drones and cameras. Minimal packaging, small case, nice build quality.

Well made, work like magic for fright bright light to achieve that cinematic look. Nice case and comes with a handy cleaning cloth

The Freewell filters are very well made and were necessary to get a perfect shot with the DJI Air 2S.

They really do a good job at helping you get good photos and videos.

Don’t typically write reviews, but I felt compelled to write one for this filter. Whether you’re new to photo/video or simply venturing into new spaces creatively, this filter is what you need. You don’t realize how important it is until you have it and see the difference.

I love shooting outdoors, photo and video. This filter gives you so much flexibility and looks phenomenal. It feels well built and the glass is high quality too. It’s reasonably priced and is worth the investment in my opinion.

I’ve always had trouble finding a good variable Nd filter that with a decent price. This filter was best one that I’ve been able to find with an affordable price. The video quality I’ve been able to achieve with the filter on has been amazing.

Has really made my videos more cinematic. I was just impressed by the premium built of the filter along with the protective case that it came as it feels very secure. Definitely a must have for photo and video.

I bought this for the Mavic Air 2 and cannot get the filter to snap into place. I’ve tried everything I can think of and can only come to the conclusion that the piece was manufactured wrong, not allowing it to connect properly.

I had to do my flight anyway and sure enough, it fell off mid-flight. I was lucky enough to find it again, but not worth it anymore. Certainly not worth how much I paid.

These are flimsy and difficult to deal with. In the field I found it difficult to put them on or take them off without leaving a finger print on them in the process. This is especially so at the beach! I can easily imagine the three little plastic tabs, which hang the filters on to the bezel of the camera, breaking or wearing off from the fatigue of installation and de-installation.

The only thing going for them is that they are probably the least taxing on the gimbal system. If they were less than $20 I would say “you get what you pay for”, but they’re not less than $20. 00.

Perfect fit, very light weight, and was designed by DJI to fit their Mavic Pro camera and the filters perform extremely well.

Can be a little fiddly compared to others but works perfectly with the gimbal.
