What’s Included and When to Use Each Filter
The set includes three filters with different light-reduction capabilities, each suited for a particular lighting scenario:
- ND8: This filter reduces light by 3 stops (or 1/8 of the light). It’s ideal for use in slightly cloudy conditions, or during times of moderate light like sunrise and sunset.
- ND32: This filter reduces light by 5 stops (or 1/32 of the light). It’s best for use on very sunny days or in brightly lit environments, giving you more flexibility with your camera settings.
- ND128: This filter is a powerful light reducer, cutting light by 7 stops (or 1/128 of the light). It is perfect for extremely bright conditions, such as a sunny day at the beach or in a snowy landscape. It’s also suitable for long-exposure photography to create effects like motion blur in a waterfall or flowing clouds.
Key Features and Benefits
Using ND filters is particularly important for videography, as they allow you to follow the “180-degree shutter rule,” which helps create a more cinematic and fluid look with natural motion blur. Without a filter, you’d be forced to use a faster shutter speed in bright light, which can lead to a choppy or jittery appearance in your video footage. The DJI Mini 5 Pro ND filters are made from high-quality light-reduction materials to ensure true color reproduction and a precise snap-joint design to ensure a secure fit on the drone’s lens during flight.
These filters help you capture stunning highlight and low-light details and are an essential accessory for any serious drone pilot looking to enhance their aerial photography and videography.
