    That's the first time I've seen to use the exposure reading, keeping your frame rate 'law' in tact, to find out which filter you need! Thank you for the tip!

    Thx for a very helpful tutorial. How do u maximize the use of a polarizer given that when the drone is airborne the filter cannot be rotated?

    You can set the shutter speed tho so you dont need to use a filter?

    Hi! I have a question about your hyperlapse video. I recently tried to create a stationary sunset hyperlapse using my Mini 4 Pro with an ND filter, following your tutorial. However, my results were wobbly, as it seems the drone shifted between frames. Upon re-watching your video, it looks like there was some movement in your hyperlapse. Did you add this movement in post-production, or was the drone flying in a specific direction? Thanks for your help!

    I'm curious about the difference between a round, polarizing ND filter and a normal one. If you could answer, I'd be grateful.

    @@GreatDayForAHike Probably because you're filming @24fps while most monitors are at 60Hz or 120. Recording to show on monitors seems to be better @30fps and shutter speed at 1/60. I've seen somewhere here on KZread that it's also possible to put the 24fps recording on a 30fps timeline to keep the more cinematic effect and prevent the stutter.
