Not sure that you quite understand what the effect of using ND filters on the drone is. It has a set aperture of 1.7 - basically the size of the hole that light comes into the camera. So in bright conditions, the camera must adjust for this brightness by increasing the shutter speed, or effectively decreasing the amount of light that each frame is exposed to. This can result in over sharpened video as there is virtually no motion blur that you would associate with a lower shutter speed. By reducing the amount of light entering the camera, the ND filters allow you to shoot in bright light at a slower shutter speed that will improve the look of movement in your film. You gave virtually no commentary on this but instead talked about how the the camera is adjusting it's exposure to give the same output with each filter. Please know what you are talking about!
I am by no means an expert. The video was simply showing what the ND filters capture without any settings change of the camera or editing. Thanks for the info, I'll take that into consideration for any future video 👍
Its make a huge difference in shutter speed, as well in MOTION BLUR, at 30fps, the shutter speed need to be 1/60sec. The good old rule of thumb, is that the shutterspeed is always need to be double the framerate, just in case 60fps video need 1/120s shutter and so on… and you have a nice natural motion blur like a pro! have a nice day!😊
Cheers mate! Came looking for a video on just what you explained in your comment. Now I don't have to watch the shitty video for another second or anyother ones 😂😂 0:16
Yes, I was. And yes, it probably isn't the best way to use ND filters but I wanted to get a perspective of the drone from an auto setting. I'm by no means an expert so appreciate the info, thanks 👍
You obviously don’t understand the use of ND filters. It wasn’t useless but not necessarily the best use of them. ND filters aren’t to make the image darker, they are to limit the amount of light getting to the camera sensor thus the camera compensates by reducing shutter speed and increasing ISO. The important thing is the reduction of shutter speed in very bright conditions as this introduces some blur which makes the video look much more natural rather than having a high shutter speed which results in sharper images that can create stutter with moving subjects. The main idea is to set your shutter speed manually to your desired value, usually double your FPS is recommended, so 1/60 if using 30FPS. The camera will adjust the ISO to maintain correct exposure if you leave that on Auto. You just need to make sure the ND filter is dark enough to give the camera enough room for adjustment of ISO.
That footage looks very blurry? My mini 4 pro has much clearer footage than that? You better check the rest of your settings, or peel the plastic off your lens or something...
@@Gadgetsquared100 Make sure you aren't in 1080p... I find 4k/30 is a good all round frame rate You can see some of my footage with Air 3 and mini 4 pro if you search my other channel 'Pegasus Drone Imaginings' ... greetings from Australia

The purpose of ND fliters for video is to introduce a more natural motion blur by allowing a slower shutter speed.
Excellent ND explanation!
Which one dor sunset or sunrise ??
how is it going?- Gadget- omg- fantastic picture! take care!=))
Thank you, really appreciate that 🙂 Stay Blessed
Depth of field are not influenced by the ND, only by the focal. On a fixed focal camera like the mini 4 pro, the depth on field is always the same
Were these flights with the camera set in auto? Cheers.
Yes, they were. I've tried not to mess around with settings just so I can get a perspective of what auto is capable of.
I presume you were flying in auto ? So the camera simply compensates with shutter speed making the use of the ND filter worthless …

The filters are NOT included in the Fly More Combo ! They are sold separately !
Yes, good spot. I bought them together so thought they come together. 👍

Thanks, will take a look. It looks crisp from the drone but probably happened after exporting into editing software it something. Thanks

This completely misses the point of why it is necessary to use ND filters on a drone - or on any video camera with a fixed aperture.
