The 6-Pack contains ND4/PL, ND8/PL, and ND16/PL, ND8, ND16, and ND32 filters, for reducing shutter speed, removing glare, and increasing color saturation. Each filter is manufactured with PolarPro’s AirFrame featherlight design for smooth gimbal operation. The Cinema Series for the DJI Phantom 4 Pro comes with a lifetime warranty ensuring they will last.

Cinema Series™ Glass: PolarPro’s filter collection using the highest end glass and coatings available for pilots who demand the best. Cinema Series glass has a high light transmission and a low refractive index.

Airframe™ Construction: PolarPro’s filter design specifically for aerial filming. Featherlight construction utilizes a precision threaded aircraft aluminum frame for smooth gimbal operation.

Included Filters:

2-Stop Neutral Density + Polarizer (ND4/PL) (5.67g): This filter reduces the camera’s shutter speed by 2 f-stops and polarizes light. We use this filter most often when filming at dusk or dawn, or on cloudy days.

3-Stop Neutral Density + Polarizer (ND8/PL) (5.6g): Reducing the camera’s shutter speed by 3 f-stops, the ND8/PL is the perfect filter for partly cloudy days. The polarizing aspect of this filter reduces glare and increases color saturation.

4-Stop Neutral Density + Polarizer (ND16/PL) (5.6g): Our go to filter when it is sunny out, the ND16/PL reduces shutter speed by 4 f-stops and polarizes the scene for capturing vivid colors on bright sunny days.

3-Stop Neutral Density (ND8) (4.24g): The ND8 filter is what we use on partly cloudy to mildly sunny days where we need to knock the shutter down by 3 f-stops.

4-Stop Neutral Density (ND16) (4.24g): The ND16 filter is what we use on very bright days to reduce shutter speed by 4 f-stops.  We generally use the ND16 filter while filming in the desert or over snow.

5-Stop Neutral Density (ND32) (4.24g): On extremely bright days, the ND32 reduces the camera’s shutter speed by 5 f-stops, allowing you to capture cinematic quality content even in the brightest conditions.

When To Use:

The following guideline is a good starting point for when to use each filter while filming with your Phantom 4, Inspire 1 or Solo. The goal of this chart is to reduce the camera’s shutter speed to 1/60^th to give aerial videos a smooth cinematic look, rather than a choppy high shutter speed look. A popular way of filming aerial video is to have your shutter speed at double your frame rate. So, if you are shooting 1080/60, then you want to try to achieve a 1/120^th shutter speed. Or, if filming 4K/30 or 24, you will want to be near 1/60^th shutter speed.
