Hi all
So I’ve been watching some videos and I want to do some long exposure shots, I think they are really cool
I’ve seen a video and i know that you need to get very high nd filters, like1000 or 2000, ( don’t know why but here we go)
Also you need to change the shutter speed to 2 or 3 seconds ( or something like it))
But I haven’t seen the option to change the shutter speed on mavic pro, only on mavic 2!
Can someone who knows please explain how to do the long exposure shots on mavic pro and the spark.
Thanks all;)

Fly safely and enjoy

When you put the filter on the drone, you will have to change the appture to expose your shot , you can use Aperture priority, your drone will automatically find a shutter speed , for long exposure you will need some thing around 1 second to 1 1/2 second , alternative to this you will find shutter speed in manual mode settings of your app .

Thanks a lot!
So I guess the long exposure shots can only be done by using some very strong nd filters?
Can it be done without filters? I guess not

Yes you can but it needs to be done in the dark, you can get really great effects especially with moving cars , great effects and colours can be achieved .

Hi there, nice to hear you're able to find it out. About your question yes you will need to use an ND filter since the brighter environment you have the bigger chance of overexposure image.
