About This Product
    Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)
    Reviews: 3 Adorama Reviews
    Product Name: Polar Pro Mavic 2 Pro Cinema Series Gradient Filter Collection
    Product Description: The Gradient Collection for Mavic 2 Pro includes ND8/GR, ND16/4, and ND32/8 gradient neutral density filters to cover a wide range of outdoor lighting conditions. Gradient filters have long been a favorite with landscape photographers, helping to balance the exposure between the sky and the ground.However, those more traditional filters are not quite dark enough to get shutter speed to cinematic levels while shooting aerial video. Designed specifically for aerial use, PolarPro Gradient Collection filters reduce shutter speed and balance exposure above and below the horizon, setting a new gold standard for landscape aerials. Typically, the sky is about 2 to 3 stops brighter than the ground, so if you expose for the sky, you underexpose the ground. Soft-edge gradient filters help balance that exposure, allowing you to pull more information out of your scene.Gradient filter frames are laser-etched with horizon guides to make it quick and easy to line up your shot, while Cinema Series production-grade glass ensures razor sharp content, and 8 layers of optical coatings on each lens side reduce ghosting and flaring. Choose Cinema Series Gradient Edition filters for perfectly balanced scene exposure on your next landscape shoot. Backed in full confidence by PolarPro's Aircraft Warranty to work flawlessly with your Mavic 2.Gradient CollectionND8-GR, ND16-4 and ND32-8 soft gradient filters, designed for balancing exposure between the sky and ground.

    Think of it like this. When you buy a new TV and it's running at a at a higher frame rate, it looks weird. When you go to a movie, it looks awesome. Part of that has to do with the amount of motion blur that's being recorded and then show to you. The higher frame rate (ie, shorter shutter speeds) is showing you more crisper moments in time, but our brains are like "wtf that doesn't look normal". For drones, flying in full daylight, the amount of time their shutter needs to be open to capture the scene is small because the brightness of the sun is flooding light onto the sensor. In normal photography, you can slow this down with aperture, but, in full daylight, maybe using aperture is still letting too much light in (ie take a photo of a smaller point of time). The ND filter purposefully blocks the bright sun, so the shutter takes longer, which could add just the right amount of motion blur for the video to look like a movie, vs a soap opera. It's could neutral density because it blocks that like across all color bands (neutral) in the same way.

    I've never used ND filters but I understand the logic for ND and the slower shuttle speeds that it enables, i.e the motion blur it adds makes video motion smoother. But I film landscapes with lots of slow motion, do you guys think it will smooth the video much in this scenario. I think maybe that it makes the most improvement in fast action footage?

    I still don't understand ND filters and the relation with the shutter speeds and aperture fully, I guess I have a long way to go.....

    ND filters are used in videos for stopping light when you want to shoot wide in a broad day light. You can't shoot at f/2 midday with 120fps if you don't have ND filter.

    These filters are gradient. So perfect for landscapes. Ive been waiting for a price like this for these. Gradients have to be expensive. Freewell/skyreat/neweer can replicate basic nd filters. Not gradients

    This deal is only for this specific drone, the DJI Mavic 2 Pro.

    But there are undoubtedly gradient or ND filters for whatever camera you have.
