Thanks for taking time for making this video. 4:30 onwards I see Skyreat more on the cool blue side but freewell has a green tint. The sky looks weird and even the white building has a green tint. I was not sure how you prefer that. This slightly improved in DLOG. Skyreat is definitely too cool for my taste.
Glad you found it useful I agree with you, one thing a lot of people don't realise is that every ND filter will change colours and you spotted them fully I have never come across a filter that is true colour but personally I prefer the Freewell ones cheers Hieth
I'd say the Skyreat are best hands down. They give the sky and the water a better blue, and they look like they have better saturation as well. I thought the Freewell filters looked kind of washed out. It was easy for me to tell which was which in all 3 A/B tests.
@@tominexile nice one Tommy it is all down to personal preference I would tend to agree with you but I like the fact that the freewell ones come with the added advantage of an ND plus CPL but the colours are better on the Skyreat
Hard to tell between them, after the first test the Skyreat seemed better, the detail at 4:40 on the water seemed to stand out over the freewell amd the colours were better. But then the freewell had less reflections at 4:34. Got my finger on the buy button of ND filters... probably just a set of NDs, the CPL built in seems handy..... still looking at vids :)
glad I stumbled across you Heith! Can I ask will an ND filter reduce glare from the sun? I'm really struggling with halos and coloured glare/flare on my videos with my mini 4 pro
Hi Victoria I am glad you stumbled across me as well - to help reduce Glare you will need to go for a combined ND and PL filter it wont eliminate it fully but will help I use these ones from Freewell they are a great combination of good quality and reasonably priced amzn.to/4ggx4hS hope this helps cheers Hieth
I thought Skyreat looked best except for Dlog M any idea why dlog m would be different? All the Freewell filters had some weird thing going on with the water where it was flickering back and forth and looked like old computer graphics.
With the Dlog M as it has more dynamic range a number of things could effect it plus I would have graded them and not the normal ones - I cant see the flickering you are on about where abouts on the time line is it because the the free well ones have a PL on them as well so you see less reflection so you see more of the waves and through the water ?
Hi Vikki - I did a bit of colour grading but only a small amount and applied it to both sets of test footage you have to remember the main difference is that the Freewell ones also have a CPL applied cheers Hieth
Glad I stumbled across your video, I've had freewell before, but going for the skyreat after looking all bleddy day at filters and the missus is gonna be happy as the skyreats are cheaper! It's a win win.. 😅 so thanks for the video meht 😃 👍
Thanks glad you found it useful - I have tried Neewer ones in the past and don't like them - personally I would always go for Freewell if not the Skyreat ones or PolarPro - hope this helps cheers Hieth
@@NairdA1983 I take it you mean for the Mini 4 if so then this CPL filter would be perfect amzn.to/3RXPmL4 or a combined ND and CPL like these amzn.to/3WaVF08 would be best of both worlds if you mean for another camera then let me know hope this helps cheers Hieth

Thanks for the video ! I had a mini 3 Pro for which I had DJI ND filter set and Freewell ND/CP set-. When I started using the ND/CP filters, I got sun reflection artifacts, light leaks too many times, what I didn't get when using the original ND filters. I realized that the structure of the turnable polarizer might cause it, because the simpler, dark glass of the ND filter somehow prevents it. Could you confirm this phenomenon ? I've just bought a Mini4 Pro and a bit clueless which set to buy, a 6 pack ND filter set, or the 6 pack ND/CP set. Dont wanna buy both. Thank you !
Hi Greg I have not noticed the Artifacts and light leaks on the ND/CP myself but I cant guarantee that 100% at certain angles of if they are not set up correctly on the H or V personally I would go for the Multi pack as they are on a special deal with Freewell at the moment here is a link www.freewellgear.com/en/dji-mini-4-pro-nd-filters/1157-dji-mini-4-pro-filters-mega-16pack.html?affp=32932 they also have a Night Time Filter in that pack which is good, if you don't want to spend that much I would personally always go for the ND/PL pack hope that helps cheers Hieth
Hi it would be this one from Freewell www.freewellgear.com/en/dji-mini-4-pro-nd-filters/1165-dji-mini-4-pro-light-pollution-reduction-filter.html?affp=32932 hopr this helps and if you have anymore questions let me know - cheers Hieth
Hi Artemio the DJI ones are ok but the ones form Freewell are better and also come as CPL/ND on them and the DJI ones dont, plus the Freewell ones cost less - hope that helps and thanks for watching cheers Hieth
Thanks for the video... was fun to guess though they were pretty easy to tell apart. I liked the Skyreat were my favorite. Just curious what software do you use for your color grading?
Hi glad you liked it .... As for software I use Premiere Pro for video but have a couple of plug ins I use sometimes but mainly rely the Premiere Pro Lumetri and my Luts hope that helps cheers Hieth
How is it possible to have a dog and human run exactly the same way with two different filters? Best actors on earth? Look at 7:15 onwards. It is obvious that it is the same footage with the same filter on it.
Hi both of the Mini 4 Pros are flying at the same time on a planned waypoint shared between them both with a difference in height of 50 cm and the gimbal altered to get as a similar view if you look closely you will a slight difference in the angle, sometimes it does not work like in the earlier clips I do this so that the lighting conditions are almost identical - I then zoom in or out on the clips or speed them up in post to get them even closer its a lot of work but good fun trying to get them to fly close to each other - I can only do this with the Mini 4 Pro as I have two but cant do it with my Mavic 3 Pro, Avata 2 or Air 3 S cheers Hieth

@@HiethGeorge Had my eye on the Freewell 6 pack for £70 ND/PL 16-1000
Also if you haven't seen it there is more footage of the Freewell ones on here th-cam.com/video/ZzUfbC-5nvc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=JcdlkaWvMItSbWHu
6:53-7:20 A and B video are both the same video how you compair the 2 filter with that?
Great video .. thank you for the comparison ..liked the skyreat .. but at last when you compared,the contrast was more in freewell
Thanks - I hope it helped they both have there pros and cons - cheers Hieth

Thanks Kyle glad you found it helpful and feel free to ask any questions but above all have some fun cheers Hieth
I liked A, B, and A... Turns out its the Skyreat filters, wow I was rooting for the Freewell as its all I keep seeing..
@@Reed_0024 Hey Chad well there you go it is all down to personal preference at the end of the day hope it helped 😁

Freewell but in DLog Skyreat closed that gap some, but still Freewell for the overall win
I feel the same - thanks for watching
Thank you
You are welcome hope it helped cheers Hieth
Skyreat looks good..... however in Dlog m...freewell looks good...is that coz of the color grading ???
Hi Vikki - I did a bit of colour grading but only a small amount and applied it to both sets of test footage you have to remember the main difference is that the Freewell ones also have a CPL applied cheers Hieth
@@HiethGeorge Thanks for the info 👍
I like B more, but I Think this is because on A the water has some weird frame rate issues
I agree JJ
Glad I stumbled across your video, I've had freewell before, but going for the skyreat after looking all bleddy day at filters and the missus is gonna be happy as the skyreats are cheaper! It's a win win.. 😅 so thanks for the video meht 😃 👍
Glad I could help Jake and especially glad it will keep your better half happy .... The things we have to do to keep them happy 😁
So is the freewell filter you used in this demo the circular polarised one you showed fitting to the drone?
@@adventure_steve_hikes Hi Stephen yes it is the CPL ND filter from Freewell.
Great video and thanks for the comparison. Amazon Uk has Neewer ND filters. Have you tried these before?
Thanks glad you found it useful - I have tried Neewer ones in the past and don't like them - personally I would always go for Freewell if not the Skyreat ones or PolarPro - hope this helps cheers Hieth
Which filter would be the best to take shots of fish in shallow water or on the surface?
@@NairdA1983 I take it you mean for the Mini 4 if so then this CPL filter would be perfect amzn.to/3RXPmL4 or a combined ND and CPL like these amzn.to/3WaVF08 would be best of both worlds if you mean for another camera then let me know hope this helps cheers Hieth

That water is actually that colour we had a sewage leak on that day 🤮
