DJI Phantom 3 Polar Pro ND filter comparison. ND-4, ND-8, ND-16, Polarized

[@junicee7928]

Just purchased a set (PL1/ND4/ND8) off the back of this video...ND8 got rid of the horrible jello, now I can finally enjoy this bloody Phantom 3 Standard! Cheers dude.

[@yingzhang7152]

if youre shooting at 30 fps, your shutter should be at 60 (double the fps, rule of thumb) then you can choose which nd filter to put on. otherwise, great video

[@regfeener]

8 stops or not ,the ND 16 was nicest for me and looked really smooth.. One of the best filter demos I have seen... Great work..

[@SethmanSlash]

Thank you very much. Glad this video is helping people out. Subbed to your channel also. Cheers

[@SethmanSlash]

The ND 16 is a must for me. Filming water falls for a example, the ND-4 and ND 8 over expose really bad trying to maintain lower shutter speeds. To be honest a ND-16 over exposes on some bright days around water. When keeping iso at 100 and shutter speeds double the frame rate.

This video has helped me make better filter choices and better drone videos. I've watched it many times. Thanks. Subscribed.

[@scottsanders4932]

This is an excellent video for making choices on which filter to use that would best suit my needs. Thank you Sethman Slash!

[@SethmanSlash]

Glad to help. Thanks for watching.

[@darshan394]

Thanks for the review.. nd 8 is just perfect ...

[@danniecarmona2509]

This helps me a lot i'm just getting into drones and their filters

[@vanessajazp6341]

Thanks for this video! Just what I needed - simple and straight forward.

[@SethmanSlash]

+Vanessa P thanks for watching

[@philipdawson8582]

Great video, Filters really make a difference I am using Freewell filters and I am much satisfied with the result.

[@SethmanSlash]

+Philip Dawson thanks

[@machbauer132]

There is somehow no logic how brightness and color changes with higher ND-number...but would have loved to see your footage with gradient filters too :)

[@billsomrak]

AWB looked off on the ND16 ... too "cool" .. perhaps if you went Custom and set it to maybe 4.5K .. Would be interesting to repeat this and instead of AWB set to custom at 5K. To me, the ND8 looked like the best balance. Have a set of PL/ND4/ND8 coming soon. (ordered the wrong ones from Amazon and got the ones for the P3S, instead of for the P3A/P3P). Very informative! Cheers!

[@SethmanSlash]

I used AWB to keep it simple. Ill try messing around with the WB see how it looks. Thanks for taking the time to check our video.

[@BillMarvin]

Thanks for comparison... if you get a Mavic, it would be good to see a similar comparison with that camera.

[@DevenChilton]

Great demonstration i deffenitly need these!

[@SethmanSlash]

Glad i was able to help.

[@StephenPurington]

Nice demo on filters, good work 😎 ✌🏼

[@SethmanSlash]

Thanks👍

[@Evadious-2022]

Great video. ND 8 for the win it seems

[@SethmanSlash]

ND 8 is what i use most often. Thanks for stopping by our channel. ✌️

[@evanpatten9986]

It seems that ND 16 is the winner as it was able to lower shutter speed to double the frame rate. check out my work. eai27272.wix.com/ethanzdronez#!portfolio/c1han

[@SethmanSlash]

+Evan Patten will do.

[@adrianmuscat3794]

Just checked out your website Evan. Really love your aerial shots!

[@HeliMicky]

Great video, thanks for making it :-)

[@SethmanSlash]

+HeliMicky thanks for stopping by

[@happyfalangme]

Nice video..top marks. extremely helpful.

[@SethmanSlash]

+happyfalangme thanks

[@jesseangell7494]

You need to offset White Balance when using a filter.

[@offroadingdonegal]

5:40 for anyone interested in the side by side comparison

[@TANZANIAFILMMAKINGTV]

that wht i was looking for b4 i buy the filter so the best way is to buy all set package

[@SethmanSlash]

+jeremiah69100 I would go with the kit. The kit will cover most lighting conditions. Thanks for stopping by. ✌️

[@Talan274]

DJI lens too bright, ND4 too dark, ND16 too blue....(blue trees?), ND8 just right!

[@SethmanSlash]

+djt2012 thanks for watching.

[@SethmanSlash]

I use the ND 8 the most. ND 16 over water helps with the glare I find.

[@MrMosinNagant1937]

it can be corrected in editing though. Better to be dark and under exposed than to be over exposed because you lose more detail if it is over exposed. At-least with it being darker you can gain some back.

[@monkeytownfilms6240]

Thanks for posting. Very helpful :)

[@SethmanSlash]

Thanks for checking out our video. Glad this video is helping people out. Cheers

[@Sobaire]

What size video are you filming in? What shutter speed are you using? And what were your color setting on the drone? Thank you. I have been having a hard time getting them right.

[@francisschuah2844]

why the ND 16 looks so weird ? As in darker than 8 and producing blue effects

[@audir8ate138]

Nice video, trying to decide if I need to get the full set up to ND64 for the really sunny days. What do you think, have you had occasions when you can't get that lower shutter speed with just ND16? Thanks

[@SethmanSlash]

+Audi R8ATE yes i have ran in to times were the ND 16 over exposes. Mostly when im shooting over water.

[@mikeedwards9251]

hey guys... I have just ordered freewell's filters set for my phantom 3 and got result ..

[@GTARC_au]

Whats the best video setting to use with md nd8 filter. phantom 3 Pro. Cheers

[@tonyv4256]

Je n' ai Jamais compris pourquoi le ND4 parait plus foncé que le ND8 ! (sur mes phantom 3/4) mais pas sur le mavic !

[@thomasbardwell4151]

What should the nd-4 filter be used for

[@KLNYC]

4 and 8 is the max I'm willing to go. 16 is like 8 stops.

[@SethmanSlash]

The 4 and 8 are nice. Thanks for stopping back.

[@danmanw1]

+KennyLee NYC Actually the ND16 reduces only 4 stops of light.

[@KLNYC]

+Dan West man I was way off. I should known better.

[@Steve-n5n1f]

I like the ND16 the best here but my Mrs said the ND8 is best

[@hpaullavallee66]

Very helpful...thank you!!

[@yfutyfv]

Where did you buy your ones????

[@GTARC_au]

Great vid!!!

[@90boiler]

Whats going to happen if i set 1/15th shutter speed and 30 FPS? More video blur?

[@brandonwilson7784]

Yes. The lower the shutter speed, the smoother the video will seem, which will cause motion blur.

[@Kennyh27]

Very helpful thanks

[@SethmanSlash]

Awesome very happy to help. Cheers

[@robingossman3385]

Why the sad music tho?

[@blaster12v]

so the lower the ND nr the darker it is???

[@LaszloBagi]

No, the 4 is the "brightest, 8 darker, 16 darker than 8, 32 is darkest

[@AllanNorstrand]

Nice video.

[@SethmanSlash]

+allan norstrand thanks

[@drone_washere9762]

hey body ım so sory but, how we can understand the difference if you change the camera setup, settings shutter speed .....

[@SethmanSlash]

+drone _washere to show how the filter allows a slower shutter speed.

[@michaelpurcell3214]

I'm deciding which filter to get for my P3 Advanced right now. This video was a great help! I feel the ND 8 will work best for the type of videos I normally shoot. Thanks again for the great video. I'll Subscribe to your channel for more vids, check out my channel. I'm still new to editing but I hope to get better lol

[@SethmanSlash]

+michael purcell thanks for the sub I will stop by and have a look at your videos. The ND 8 is my go to filter.

[@mertocagsen1536]
