Flexible use of this set can ensure clean footage, even when the shutter opens to 180° with a low ISO. With the ND8, ND16, ND32 or ND64 filters, you can precisely control shutter speeds to handle tricky lighting or long exposures. They're tailor-made for the tri-camera setup on the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and Pro Cine drones. Because the filters use lower light reduction on the tele lens, you can properly expose all 3 lenses at the same time. The DJI Mavic 3 Pro ND Filter Set 8/16/32/64 for the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and Pro Cine is designed to give you creative freedom with your drone's camera. The set includes ND8, ND16, ND32, and ND64 filters, which reduce the amount of light that enters the sensor, letting you control the gimbal camera's aperture, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity settings more effectively.

Product Information
Full details
This DJI Mavic 3 Pro ND Filter Set is designed for experienced drone videographers and photographers using the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and Pro Cine drones. It offers precise control over shutter speed, enabling smooth footage and creative long exposures even in bright conditions. A key benefit is the ability to maintain a 180° shutter angle with low ISO for cinematic motion blur. The main caveat is that optimal use requires an understanding of exposure principles and how ND filters affect camera settings.

FAQs
What does ND stand for in ND filters?
ND stands for Neutral Density. These filters reduce the amount of light entering the camera lens without affecting the color balance.
What is the 180° shutter rule, and why is it important?
The 180° shutter rule suggests setting your shutter speed to double your frame rate (e.g., 1/48s for 24fps). This creates a natural motion blur. ND filters help achieve this in bright light by reducing the amount of light entering the lens.
Are these filters compatible with other DJI drone models?
These filters are specifically designed and optimized for the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine's tri-camera system. Compatibility with other models is not guaranteed.
How do I choose which ND filter to use?
The choice depends on the lighting conditions and your desired shutter speed. ND8 (3-stop) is for moderate light, ND16 (4-stop) for brighter conditions, ND32 (5-stop) for very bright light, and ND64 (6-stop) for extremely bright conditions or very long exposures.
Can I stack these ND filters?
While it is technically possible to stack ND filters, it is not recommended for the DJI Mavic 3 Pro ND Filter Set as they are precisely calibrated for each lens. Stacking can lead to color casts and reduced image quality. The set provides a range of options to cover most scenarios.
Do these filters affect the autofocus or image sharpness?
When used correctly and kept clean, these neutral density filters are designed to minimize impact on autofocus and image sharpness. However, any added element to the lens can potentially have a slight effect.
What is the weight of each filter?
Each filter weighs approximately 5.1 grams.
Troubleshooting
Filter does not attach securely to the lens.
Ensure no debris is present on the lens mount or the filter. Realign the filter carefully and apply even pressure. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the filter or lens mount.
Image appears too dark or too bright after attaching filter.
Verify that you have selected the correct ND filter strength for the current lighting conditions. Adjust your camera's ISO and shutter speed settings accordingly. Ensure the filter is the correct model for your drone.
Uneven exposure across the three lenses.
Confirm that the filters are correctly installed on each respective lens. The tele lens has specific light reduction properties; ensure no other filters are mixed or incorrectly applied. Refer to the DJI Mavic 3 Pro ND Filter Set documentation for correct lens placement.
Scratches or smudges on the filter affect image quality.
Clean the filter using a microfiber lens cloth and appropriate lens cleaner. If scratches are deep, the filter may need to be replaced to restore optimal image quality.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
DJI Mavic 3 Pro
DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine
Setup:
Gently detach the original lens cap from the DJI Mavic 3 Pro/Pro Cine camera.
Align the chosen ND filter with the camera lens, ensuring the markings on the filter correspond to the lens.
Carefully press the filter onto the lens until it clicks into place. Ensure it is securely attached.
Care:
To clean the filters, use a soft lens brush to remove dust. For smudges, use a microfiber lens cloth with a small amount of lens cleaning solution. Never use abrasive materials.
Store the filters in their protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
Handle filters by the edges to avoid leaving fingerprints on the optical surfaces.
