ND 16/64/256 Filters for the DJI Mavic Air 2

DJI Mavic Air 2: geni.us/dsPl
If you purchased the Fly More Combo, then you got the ND 16/64/256 Filter Set. In this video, I explain how filters work, how to install them and some shooting options with them. If you want to get some natural looking motion blur in your video, filters are a must. Also, if you want to do some long exposure photography, the ND 256 is a good choice to start with.

[@fsneaks2811]

I didn't know mine came with filters till you mentioned it, I had to unzip the top of the bag from the inside lmao, thank you!

[@DrSebby]

This guy really does an amazing job of making these tutorials.... no nonsense, full range explanations without any fluff. DJI should pay him & leave the entire tutorial design sector up to him. Lol. Fantastic job. Thankyou!!

[@jakerock1693]

Love how much time and effort you are putting into creating and uploading your videos! You have been very consistent which I really like! Keep it up! Another great and helpful video!

[@ajkolo]

This is the clearest simple to understand explanation and instructions on nd filters and overall camera settings I've seen. You definitely earned your thumbs up and my subscription. Thank you

[@nathanfields9658]

Just received mine a couple weeks back. Since this is my first drone, all your vids have been super helpful, well presented and easy to understand. Cheers from Australia

[@OldLadyAngler]

Thank you for the filter demonstration. It's nice that they included a couple basic filters with the combo kit.

[@TexasFamilyCamping]

I took my Air 2 up for the first flight last night. I was going to throw the ND 16 on real quick, but I struggled to get it on there. So I'm glad you made this video. I had no idea about twisting off the ring. Thanks, You Rock.

[@venkataviswanathchittibomm2427]

You are one heck of a youtuber with great information and no nonsense

[@Thegoats713]

This was the first video I watched and by far the best at explaining this entire concept!! THANK YOU!!

[@FlytPath]

Glad it was helpful!

[@viewsthatfade]

Thanks, just now getting into drone flying and this helped a lot to understand what those filters are for. Love your channel.

[@MrMonk330]

So glad you are so informative! You have prepared me so much for my first flight. And i bought the fly more combo so this really helped. Appreciate you!

[@invi_carlos]

I've learned so much about drones and cameras from you. Best explanations and video to support!

[@davidlittle04]

This was EXACTLY what I needed, and gave me all the info I was searching for to begin using these on my MA2. Thank you!!!

[@BC-yw2tw]

Thanks. Have never used a filter but thought they just snapped on. Now I know there is a partial turn to install.

[@djtoman6875]

I ordered Moment's variable ND (2-5 stops) filter as soon as I acquired my MA2, and it finally arrived in early July. Now that I've used it a decent amount I am pleased to report that it is a brilliant piece of kit, and that I'll be picking up the 6-9 stop variant. Not that the filters including in the Fly More Kit were inadequate, but the versatility and quality of the variable NDs makes them much more attractive for my use.

[@JakeAdams27]

Dude! Just ordered one last night! It's my first drone and I am so stoked I found you. Such an informative, beautiful, and to the point video. Just subscribed and going to dive through your content as I wait on shipping. Nice shots of wind n sea by the way!! Bay Park here. Excited to join your community.

Dope thanks YJ

I been practicing every day in the afternoon. After work. I been trying out picture taking with ma2. I also been practicing movement with the video. Combine motion is awesome. I only got the filters it came with. The fly more combo. I use the 16 almost always.

[@Sami-fz3gj]

Thank you, I saw alot of vids but yours are much clearer.

[@jay.001]

Thanks bro, I just got the Air 2, upgraded from the Mini 2 and I am trying to figure out some camera tricks. Appreciate the videos!

I don't usually like videos, but this video made me hit like and saved to my playlist. Good job!

[@fabianlyimo4504]

Thank you so much for this. I was still figuring out how to use filter and get better photos.

[@GiraudonFamily]

thanks from France for sharing your experience ! Really interesting and helpful

[@radek5327]

This was probably the best explanation of motion blur I have seen in a long time. Very informative as always! Keep the MA2 video's coming!

[@FlytPath]

Thanks, will do!

[@radek5327]

@@FlytPathHave you been able to find any gimbal adjustments outside of just the standard calibration? I have heard some rumors that it may be available in IOS (in beta release?) but not in the Android version of DJI's Fly app. Lack of these tweaks would definitely be missed.....

[@RonaldBrown59]

Thanks for showing the proper way to put the ND filters on. I always struggle with the Mavic 2 Pro filters.

[@JosephTMyers]

Great video for filters--though it is worth mentioning if one is really watching conditions and even with the MA2's fixed 2.8, one's understanding of current lighting conditions and picking relative filter per the conditions will save you hundreds of dollars over a variable aperture camera. Knowning photographic conditions will just give one an overall boost anyways when shooting high quality video and/or photos. As long as the MA2 is compensating via shutter speed to match ambient lighting conditions too fixed aperture, even with 2.8 one can nail a shot. The only camera i know of that shoots more wide open would be the Evo 2 and then you go way higher on pricepoint. Que sera sera.

[@ChristineLozada]

helpful! thank you!

[@punapirate]

Instead of trial and error. Take a reading of your primary subject watching your ev# or histogram. Note the shutter speed then count how many “stops” it will take to bring the exposure down to your 180 rule. ie. you want to shoot at 4K 30fps so your shutter speed should be 1/60th - you take a reading and find with no filter the correct settings should be ISO 100 ss 1/500. You need to bring your shutter speed down 3 stops to 1/60 so you have to use an ND8. Each stop increases or decreases exposure by 50% ND4 = -2 stops ND8 = -3 stops ND16 = -4 stops ND32 = -5 stops And so on.... In shutter speeds the stops are as follows (sample)... 1/500 1/250 1/125 1/60 1/30 1/15 1/8 and on

[@lance4prez217]

Nearly had a heart attack trying to swap out the nd filters! The clip adapter was incredibly stiff from the factory, so much so I thought I was going to destroy the gimbal, thankfully it eventually released & seems to have loosened up after using it a few times.

I did great video on the filter that came with it I don’t use the filter set and I still get great video

[@Ziggiep09yt]

Love your videos I am getting a phantom 4 pro

[@KrishnenduKes]

Good video. So basically the ND 16 is seemingly good enough for bright situations at 1/120 shutter speed according to you. The other 2 strengths are for stills then I reckon.
