I like to fly my drones early in the day when there aren't many people around, but the downside is that the sun is low in the sky and this gets worse in the winter months.
I've been thinking about trying ND filters for a while so I was delighted to have the opportunity to try this comprehensive set which includes ND4, ND8, ND16, ND32, ND64 and ND1000 and offers 2-10 stops of light reduction .
The filters weigh 1.1g, which is only 0.3g more than the detachable camera lens cover. This means that the total weight of the drone is still within the 250g limit for flight in A3.
Because the Mini 3 Pro camera has a fixed aperture, these filters provide an effective way to reduce shutter speed for more natural video capture.
The filters are supplied in a plastic housing with a click lock. The case is a bit larger than I would have liked, but it makes removing the filters easier and the empty space can be used to store the original frame or the removed filter.
The DJI Mini 3 Pro's camera is very small and I was afraid that if I took the cover off and replaced it with a filter I might damage it, but the whole process is pretty simple. However, I found it advisable to place the filters over my drone body so that if something falls it can be easily recovered.
Due to the current weather conditions and personal commitments, I have not yet been able to carry out a meaningful test. I will update this review when the opportunity arises.
