No glue or permanent procedure is necessary with using the ND gel. It's currently what I would call a stop gap solution until we get proper filters designed for use with the inspire 1 camera.
The method I find that works best is to purchase the ND Gel strength of your choice, a circle cutter, and some tweezers to handle the gel. Using the circle cutter you can measure out the diameter of the Dji stock clear lens filter, cut out a circle of your ND gel and then you can place it inside the recessed part of the lens filter, you want it to be a snug fit, but it doesn't have to be perfect. The camera won't pick up most of the imperfections of the gel. You can even cut multiple circles of ND and "stack" them inside the filter. When you go to screw the filter on the gel, it will stay snug and secure. Taking them out I've found to be as easy as blowing a little bit of canned air into the filter to loosen them. Then just use the tweeters to gently pull them out. You don't want to use your hands because of dirt and oil that can rub off on the gel.
If that sounds confusing or complex, it's simple in practice. And again it works for now. Maybe I'll put together a video to illustrate.
As far as the file size, I'm showing 60,000kbps or (60mbps) when I view the property details for the clip on Windows 8.1, MAC might show a different way of representing it, it's been a while since I edited on my 2007 MacBook pro. This is also the file straight out of the camera before using the transcoding tool. |
