Try these 10 Creative DRONE Moves I Wish I'd Known SOONER - kzread.info/dash/bejne/hXeZrZSKqKbfnps.html

AT LAST! Someone who knows what they're talking about and can explain properly the use of ND and polarising filters.(unlike many Drone KZread creators). The only important point missing is that the degree of effect a polariser has is determined by the camera's position relative to the reflective surface (for removing reflections), or to the sun (for deepening blue skies). So, depending on which way the camera is pointing, and its angle to the subject, the effect can be quite noticeable or not noticeable at all. These are basic principles in photography and not at all drone specific.

Thank you! ☺

Rather than trying to find the correct ND filter by trial and error, you can easily calculate what ND filter you need. Every halving of shutter speed is a reduction of exposure by one 'stop'. Each grade of ND filter reduces exposure by a given number of stops so you just need to match them up. In this example, we start with a shutter speed of 1/3200 but need a shutter speed of 1/50. So: 1/3200 down to 1/1600 = 1 stop (ND2) 1/800 = 2 stops (ND4) 1/400 = 3 stops (ND8) 1/200 = 4 stops (ND16) 1/100 = 5 stops (ND32) 1/50 = 6 stops (ND64). If the starting shutter speed was 1/1600 then that's a 5 stop reduction in exposure, so we'd need an ND32 from 1/800 down to 1/50 is 4 stops, so that would need an ND16 And so on

@Ammarkhogeer

The calculations will be the same. In terms of exposure, the difference between 1/50 and 1/60 will hardly be noticeable and, if it is, it can easily be adjusted in post processing.

I have been waiting for someone to post this information and if I didn't see it I was going to comment myself. I am new to drone photography/ videos but I have over 40 years as a keen stills photographer, including qualifying through the Royal Photographic Society. I have frequently used ND and CPL filters in my photography and was pleased to see that someone had posted the 'rule' for deciding what is the best ND filter to use, without using trial and error (and battery life!). Something that some people may not have noticed is that the number on the filter is the multiplication factor. As a result, if the exposure say 1/3200 and you want to get to 1/50 then (1/50 divided by 1/3200 = 64). Or put more simply 3200/50 = 64. or 1/3200 x 64 = 1/50. I hope that helps someone.

Great information, brightly presented. There are two more filters you might want to include as well: The ND2000 (and sometimes even the ND1000) are great for long exposure photos, and the GND, which help balance a non-balanced scenery, such as very bright skies and lesser bright ground.

@@TheDroneCreative The GND filter is largely used with landscape photography. I use it every now and then with my professional mirrorless camera, and was happy to see it is available for the M3P, as it can help overcome the quite-short dynamic range this camera has to offer and the fixed wide open aperture.

Great video. Maybe I missed it, but there is one question left unanswered in my mind : Are there situations when an ND filter is a better choice than an ND/PL... ?

What each feller does😂. All jokes aside you are a life savor and a fantastic creator.

Great vid (already subbed a few months ago). Shout out for a camera cleaning tutorial (including filters)! I haven't had the need to clean the lens, but I'd use an air pump to blow any particles first and if it doesn't do the job, I'd use my camera brush gently on it. With the filters, so far I've just used microfiber cloth and would like to know if I'm f'ing it up and should be using and air pump + brush first... Anyway, that UV filter saved my drone once, I keep an extra UV around, besides the complete ND collection. I also wanted to add that the ND/CPL pack will change the color of the sky, they are best used at a 45 to 90 degree downwards angles. That's the only thing I'd say it was missing from the tutorial, hopefully you'll make a vid on this particular issue.

i'm thinking of buying the ND/PL kit and use them for all situations.. it's a good kit and sure i won't buy two separate kits, it is already expensive. even if the situation don't require PL, by using PL sunglasses i know everything always look better colorwise

Another Excellent video. Thank you! I like the idea of using a UV filter to protect the camera lens, but I was wondering if there is any noticeable downside to using an NP4 as a more "permanent" filter on the Mini 3 Pro?

Always so helpful Mattheww! These still confuse me!

I legit thought for the first minutes of the video that you said fellas 😂

Thanks. Very helpful info as always. I have the freewell ND set, they work well and clip on nicely. Trying to work out if I can be bothered to buy and carry another set for CPL. One thing I would say is its a real weakness of the mini 3 if you want to do photography as well. I sometimes try and find a happy medium so I dont need to land and remove to take stills, but in an ideal world DJI would have just added aperture control or at least give a built in ND in the mid region that could be flicked on and off in flight.... But I guess there's only so much they can pack into a thing this size and weight! I wonder if it's OK to fly without anything attached, even the original DJI glare shield? Since its deeper it doesn't fit in the filter boxes so I tuck it away and forget to out it back on when I remove filters. Haven't seen any issue but not sure if it causes the gimbal any issues long-term.

I can see a clear difference on those green leaves with the UV filter
