DJI Mini 3 Series ND Filter Set (ND16/64/256), Compatibility: DJI Mini 3 Pro, DJI Mini 3

Product Information

You can therefore manipulate the exposure of a frame and the amount of motion blur in the video by combining ND filters and shutter speed. I am the owner of two YouTube channels specializing in Videography and Photography, with a focus on drones Therefore we have to somehow compromise and reduce the amount of motion blur, but a decent result can still be obtained. As you can see the movement of the cars and the smoothness of the cloud are acceptable in this drone timelapse with a SS of half a second The fit of the filters is another thing to consider. DJI’s own ND filters will likely have the best fit and alignment, preventing any risk of light leakage or distortion. Weight: The filter weighs 1.5g and replaces the camera's lens protector, which weighs 0.7g. The drone therefore weighs 0.8 g more with the filter and therefore remains safely in the range of under 250 g total weight and can continue to be used without a drone license.

For instance, to increase motion blur, you can slow the shutter speed and increase light filtering by using a higher-value ND filter. Previous drones in the DJI Mini series saw third parties such as Neewer and Freewell become household names for ND filters for drones. Sharpness and vignetting: The image remains absolutely sharp in comparison without the filter and vignetting is not visible.ND filters are typically made from plastic or glass that has been tinted by a specific amount. Most ND filters for the DJI Mini 3 come in at under 1g in mass so that the Mini 3 can retain its sub-250-gram status. Some of these filter sets also offer multi-coated glass and claim to not impact the color of the light that’s filtered. ND filters come in different strength values, according to the amount of light reduction. In photography and videography, we are familiar with the concept of exposure stops to describe variations of luminosity. The idea of stops can be applied to any of the three parameters of exposure: ISO, Aperture, and Shutter Speed

Long-exposure drone photography is also gaining in popularity. Capturing long-exposure photos on bright days would need a lot more filtering, for example, using an ND256 or higher filter. Third-party ND filters Storage box: Here too, K&F stands out from some other suppliers, because the original cover fits completely into the small plastic storage box from height and is therefore loss-proof.In most cases, the strength of ND filters is expressed by an ND value indicating the number of stops of light reduction, starting from ND2 which reduces the luminosity by one stop Luminosity Stops Usually, portraits require a complete focus on the subject. So, using the ND filters for the DJI Mini 3 Pro allows you to regulate the depth of field in extreme light conditions.
