I definitely have to agree, I watch a lot of reviews, and this is on a level on its own. I’ve learned, understood the differences between products, & feel confident in the validity of the review with upfront transparency concerning previous or ongoing partnership with the brand. Excellent work 10/10
I appreciate that even in a paid video, you still talk about some features that you actually like most about the competitors. Whoever says you're biased is crazy!
I really appreciate your stance on packaging - this is rarely discussed, yet vital. Superbly informative and exceptionally presented as always. Keep up the great work and be well
I appreciate the tremendous amount of work that goes into creating a video like this, Gerald, so THANK YOU for your hard work and dedication. You've become a master of your craft, Bravo.
2 day ago i just started to search for good video on the black pro mist ... et voilà, you post this one. love your channel, love your dedication, love your work, love your passion, love... you're definitly the channel No1.
Already appreciated you but after listening to what you had to say about your selfless view on packaging in general I can say that you are a great person my man.
I felt like I just went back to school and they just rolled out the t.v for an educational video. I love your style and this style/video is why I watch TH-cam! Epic and pure GOLD, thanks!
Filming school for free That's deeper than i expected Even if i don't understand anything I keep coming back to watch videos Thank you Thank you thank you
I don't know how did I not understand this video a year ago. I didn't really use the filter as much as I expected but now I know I must get the signature version and sell my mist edition.
you make such informative and articulate videos, honestly, I'm not into a lot of the nitty-gritty about gear but you make it so interesting and make me want to learn more!
Gerald! Again awesome video! Much kudos for motioning the part from 6:20 We really need to stop buying packaging which still has a crap load of plastic. (that means stop buying from Ali etc) this packagings is amazing, just bought one for my 16-35
Bravo for your reasoning behind not showing unboxings and no longer promoting packaging. It's glamorizing waste and I appreciate your thoughts on that.
What a fantastic explanation, Gerald. I wish you were making videos when I learned photography 10 years ago. I would have learned concepts so much faster. Love the nerdy details.
solid and honest review, but the best is the explanation! Gerald your content is amazing bro! If can not make a super like, but I will share this to my filmmaker friends!
Thank you so much! Finally a video that answered all my questions consistently, straight thru, and straight t the point! I'll get the 82mm Mists for my Canon M50 22mm/F2 lens.
I’m a new subscriber to your channel and i have to say I find your videos very helpful/educational and entertaining.
3 ปีที่แล้ว
Like and subscribed just for that unboxing argument 👏 Well.. I was already subscribed haha but this is just one more reason why I'm here, keep it up man!
Great review and explanation! I really dig you thoughts about packaging and the waste problem. Thanks you for being proactive and part of a change for the better! 👊🏼
For some reason, for a couple weeks now, throughout the day I randomly catch myself singing "Gerald Undone, he's crazy". It just spontaneously happened again when I was walking outside so I thought I'd turned back around to come inside and share that for some reason, as if I really matter... pshhh
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I almost bought it, but I just realized thanks to your video I do not actually need (or actually want) a MIST edition one. I already have the original 2 Peter McKinnon VNDs and that's all I need :) ... NOW ... We need Polar Pro GERALD UNDONE filters .... Maybe they can automatically paint all backgrounds purple? :)
When I saw these coming out I immediately searched your name as my go to definitive review. Same for a7c. I guess you have just become my standard of quality lolol
10/2020 : 187K subscribers 01/2021: 1M subscribers Man, is there any camera product / tech that you can't explain like a pro ? I don't think so. Congratz (and thanks!) for your channel !
Man what a great video! So clear to understand and everything is so well explained!😀 only recently came across your videos and now i’m watching them all so i can learn as much... only problem is my brain is overwhelmed now 😂 Keep up the great work!!😀 Thanks for the help!😀
Nice! I bought both 82mm PPVNDs after your review last time. I use a Tiffen Black Pro-Mist with them sometimes (usually wedding beauty shots) without any problems.
One thing that halation is really great for is communicating the color and intensity of a light that is clipped in the image. To our human eyes, a bright red florescent tube is going to appear red, and as it gets brighter, we see it getting brighter. But a bright red light light in video will likely clip the red, so as it gets brighter in the real world, it will still look like it's the same brightness. And as the light gets even brighter, it will start to appear yellow and then orange, as the green parts of the sensor start getting excited. And if the light is bright enough, it will eventually be white. A faint red halo around the light will tell our brains that it's a red light. And in that particular case described above, it can't be done well in post. If that bright red light is so clipped that it appears white in the image, and you try to add some bloom in post, that bloom is going to be white, not red, because "white" is all the camera knows about that light. You'd have to go in and pant the bloom the color you want it to be. So that's one example of why people would spend money on a diffusion filter when halation can be added in post anyway.
Killer vid but at 2:25 there is a HUGE miss wording about the use of hairspray. NEVER NEVER NEVER put hairspray on a LENS. It will ruin the coating on your lenses. What some cinematographers do is they spray hairspray on a UV Filter then use that for effect. Other than than, great info as always. I seriously send our your videos to some of the up & comers I know because the way you share and teach is so damn thorough it covers most questions before they come up. Keep up the great work!
Great point about packaging! I always feel guilty when a package arrives in huge box and wrapped in layers of plastic for nothing. It's meant to be thrown away so it's should be as small and environmentally friendly as possible!

Great explanation as always. You are in a league of your own, Gerald.
Thanks, Jacques! 🤓🙏💜

Gerald - you are CRUSHING it. Oh my goodness.
Thanks, Cody! That means a lot! 🤓🙏💜
I really appreciate your stance on packaging - this is rarely discussed, yet vital.
Superbly informative and exceptionally presented as always.
Keep up the great work and be well

Dr. Professor Undone educating us even more. I really appreciate the mini science lesson at the beginning and even in the older videos, thank you !!

i absolutely adore your stance on unboxings, i love my products in a ziplock bag and in a brown cardboard box
2 day ago i just started to search for good video on the black pro mist ... et voilà, you post this one. love your channel, love your dedication, love your work, love your passion, love... you're definitly the channel No1.
Your growth as a reviewer is uncanny. You are the new standard!
Great video! The clicky stop on the filter is absolute genius! Love these filters. And I can get behind the minimal packaging, good job PolarPro.

Gerald undoes my mind so good man
Already appreciated you but after listening to what you had to say about your selfless view on packaging in general I can say that you are a great person my man.
The way Gerald so seamlessly transitioned from the payed portion of the video to the explanation thoroughly undid my mind
I 1000% agree with that packing philosophy
I'm Gerald Undone and a hot dog is most definitely a form of taco.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment about the importance of reducing waste in products.
I felt like I just went back to school and they just rolled out the t.v for an educational video. I love your style and this style/video is why I watch TH-cam! Epic and pure GOLD, thanks!
Exactly the video i needed now! Thanks Gerald! You're the best!!
Filming school for free
That's deeper than i expected
Even if i don't understand anything
I keep coming back to watch videos
Thank you Thank you thank you
I literally just googled this question and then checked TH-cam and you have provided, what a man!
I don't know how did I not understand this video a year ago. I didn't really use the filter as much as I expected but now I know I must get the signature version and sell my mist edition.
This channel absolutely needs to be in the millions not in the 190K mark. Well done my good sir! This is brilliant! ;) Keep up the awesome work!
Hi Gerald I sold my cameras when my phone got “good enough” but I still love watching and learning from your videos.
Amen to smart, less wasteful packaging! Very educational video. 👍
Great video and great explanation too!!
80 % of what Gerald said went over my head , but it's fun watching him talk nerdy things about cameras . 😓
Same
me too lol. I get some of it, don't get most of it, then use what is said as a launch pad for more research so I can then understand it later. :)
Middle of Knowhere me too 😁😓
By far the most resourceful and favorite channel i watch! Gerald thanks man! 🤍
Im at Gerald undone University!
This is called knowledge n researching every bit of info.
As always hatsoff for this.🙏
I appreciate your position on packaging and unboxing and that you took the time to share your thoughts. Cheers
you make such informative and articulate videos, honestly, I'm not into a lot of the nitty-gritty about gear but you make it so interesting and make me want to learn more!
🤓🙏💜
Thanks for the update Gerald! I come here for the unbiased what’s up and you delivered! 👍🏻
I swear I learn a lot from watching your videos sh*t is amazing. Thank you, Gerald
Next intro: I'm gerald undone, and a doctor a day keeps the apple away
Legendary channel. Worth millions of subscribers imo.
You are by far the best gear reviewer on TH-cam.
yes! less waste! thank you for saying this. needs to be talked about more in this industry
I love how you explain what companies hired you for
Thank Bro Sick video!!
Gerald! Again awesome video! Much kudos for motioning the part from 6:20 We really need to stop buying packaging which still has a crap load of plastic. (that means stop buying from Ali etc) this packagings is amazing, just bought one for my 16-35
Well I learned something today, thanks Gerald for another great video!
Bravo for your reasoning behind not showing unboxings and no longer promoting packaging. It's glamorizing waste and I appreciate your thoughts on that.
Super good explanation!!
What a fantastic explanation, Gerald. I wish you were making videos when I learned photography 10 years ago. I would have learned concepts so much faster. Love the nerdy details.
Thanks, Amrita! 🤓
You’re my favorite technical youtuber for sure
solid and honest review, but the best is the explanation! Gerald your content is amazing bro! If can not make a super like, but I will share this to my filmmaker friends!
Thank you so much! Finally a video that answered all my questions consistently, straight thru, and straight t the point! I'll get the 82mm Mists for my Canon M50 22mm/F2 lens.
You have a way to make technical things less painful to learn haha Thank you for the honest review !
I’m a new subscriber to your channel and i have to say I find your videos very helpful/educational and entertaining.
Like and subscribed just for that unboxing argument 👏
Well.. I was already subscribed haha but this is just one more reason why I'm here, keep it up man!
Whole new meaning to *thoroughness*. 🤙🏻
Amazing breakdown of both the filter and the process in which they work.
I’m predicting Gerald hits 1MM subs before Christmas 2021.
Companies needa stop wasting money on Epic B-roll footage of their product and just pay Gerald to explain all about them! Good content as usual buddy!
Highly agree, I prefer companies that choose environmentally friendly packaging. ♻️💚
hey gerald do you still use the teleprompter ? + how much it takes you to script video ? Thanks
Nicely done, as usual! :D
Nice roundup of the filters.
Excellent Review
Thanks Gerald 🙏🏻
I don't think any other tech utuber explicitly said I am avoiding unboxing from now on all in the name of climate friendliness. Good for you.
Awesome explanation. PMVND is great product with high quality. I really appreciate you
That integrated holder is clever
Very insightful as usual. Thanks Gerald!
My brain is oozing information. Damn, this was gold.
Great review and explanation! I really dig you thoughts about packaging and the waste problem. Thanks you for being proactive and part of a change for the better! 👊🏼
Will watch later!
Gerald deserves a few million subscribers!
Gerald Undone is the only person that Chunk Norris listens to 😊

neofilm me too!
great vid as always.
Nice explanation. Thanks!
Super helpful my man! Just absolutely love your videos. Thanks for everything :)
Sometimes I'm watching your videos late at night. Then I fall asleep and the next day I wake up with new knowledge 😂
Yeah, I need to step my TH-cam game up! Love the deep dive man!
Excellent comparisons as always, thank you!
Very well done and thorough.
I highly approve your new haircut beside the very informatic product overview! :D

Awesome and timely timing thanks!

Interesting! Nice video. ✌️

Gerald doing the Lord’s work out here.
Thanks brother. I've been looking at getting some mist filters for my photos. Think I'll grab some today.
Just earned a sub for that green, sustainable thinking! Thanks.

Loved the video Gerald!!! And I didn't even need 75%!! Wish I could say the same about some of my grades in uni but here we are!! 😅😅
Great point on the packaging, totally agree 👏🏼
I like how you're getting paid to provide educational content and still providing honest reviews.
Killer vid but at 2:25 there is a HUGE miss wording about the use of hairspray. NEVER NEVER NEVER put hairspray on a LENS. It will ruin the coating on your lenses. What some cinematographers do is they spray hairspray on a UV Filter then use that for effect.
Other than than, great info as always. I seriously send our your videos to some of the up & comers I know because the way you share and teach is so damn thorough it covers most questions before they come up. Keep up the great work!
Kudos on the low waste and no unboxing 👍
I ended up getting the Freewell VND as PolarPro broke after few weeks of usage :(
Which is better in your opinion? Which do you prefer?
They've released a mist VND now as well
Great job on unbox part 10/10
Great point about packaging! I always feel guilty when a package arrives in huge box and wrapped in layers of plastic for nothing. It's meant to be thrown away so it's should be as small and environmentally friendly as possible!
