Overview:

The PolarPro DJI Phantom 4 and Phantom 3 Professional Filter 6-Pack includes six filters designed specifically for aerial filming.  These filters feature an ultra-light design for smooth and safe gimbal operation, allowing you to capture cinematic quality content in nearly any lighting condition.  Even when adding our heaviest filter (ND16/PL) to the gimbal, a net increase of just 3.36 grams is added to the gimbal.  Each filter has a precision threaded aluminium frame which smoothly installs on the DJI Phantom 4/3 camera, replacing the stock DJI UV filter. (Note: you must remove DJI's stock UV filter before threading our filters on).  This professional grade filter set for the Phantom 4 and Phantom 3 gives you six unique filter options to capture the best content possible in a multitude of light conditions.

Included Filters: 

Circular Polariser Filter (CP) (4.64g): The circular polarising filter helps enhance aerial videos by reducing the amount of light reflecting off of the ground, leaving behind beautifully saturated colours and also improving contrast. This CP filter reduces the camera's shutter speed by 1.6 f-stops.

3-Stop Neutral Density Filter (ND8) (4.06g):  The ND8 filter is best used on cloudy to partly cloud days for creating smooth cinematic video, when natively shooting at 1/500th.  

4-Stop Neutral Density Filter (ND16) (3.85g): We use this 4-stop ND filter on partly cloudy to mildly sunny days where we need to knock the shutter down from 1/1000th, to near 1/60th.

5-Stop Neutral Density Filter (ND32) (3.47g): Designed to take down the camera's shutter speed by 5 f-stops, we use this filter when shooting in the desert or over snow on very bright days. 

3-Stop Polariser (ND8/PL) (4.54g): The ND8/PL is a versatile filter, which reduces the camera's shutter speed by 3 f-stops while also providing polarisation. Perfect for conditions that are too bright for the CP filter, the ND8/PL allows you to capture beautifully saturated colours. 

4-Stop Polariser (ND16/PL) (5.36g): The ND16/PL provides 4 stops of shutter speed reduction while also providing polarisation. This is our go-to filter for sunny days where we want to capture saturated colours and improve contrast.

The following guideline is a good starting point for when to use each filter while filming with your Phantom 3/4, Inspire 1, or Solo. The goal of this chart is to reduce the camera’s shutter speed to 1/60th to give aerial videos a smooth cinematic look, rather than a choppy high shutter speed look. A popular way of filming aerial video is to have your shutter speed at double your frame rate. So, if you are shooting 1080/60, then you want to try to achieve a 1/120th shutter speed. Or, if filming 4K/30 or 24, you will want to be near 1/60th shutter speed.
