Good morning,  After a while already with the X7, I would like that among all we list the filters that you use for the X7, which of them work to perfection and the quality of them. If you can detail price, purchase link etc, it will be appreciated.

I'm totally stock at the moment but I'm looking at this. It's 12 grams. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01F ... ef_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

If you are cool with loosing the lens front/sunshade thingy you can balance the polarpro filters pretty good ... if you have different weight balance rings you are golden.

If you have a Inspire 2 with X7 camera you would not put cheap glass infront of the lens ( I do not say all cheap are bad, but you are lucky to find one good enough... )

Her is what is recommend for X7 - and they are top :

You will want 0.9 - 1.2 and 1.5 filters

( Must add that mine is a bit older than this new "ultra" - but seen reviews on the new ones and they are as always from Hitech - Top)

Here is a link to the slightly older ones I use and there is no way you will regret buying those

Yes unfortunately they are a expensive - the slim line is 55 GBP - still expensive - I agree on that, but I think you will not regret buying them.

For my X5S I have PolarPro set ND and Polarized + graduated. Top quality, good price.

I've been using the Polaroid Variable ND and it works with all lenses (apart from 16mm as you don't need it). Using 1 balance ring and no hood and balances fine. Great thing is you can control exposure before take off to where you think it should be and make small adjustments in the air. I've been using this ND for about 3 years now on various setup (GH4, X5R) and theirs no issue with image quality. I highly recommend it.

I have PolarPro ND for my Mavic Pro - and they just works fine - have never tried PP on my X5s. Great to hear they are working fine for you and I suppose they are a bit cheaper than the Firecrest

The price is 170/200 euros for the 6 filters and 30/40 euros for the graduated (depends where you buy).

I'm undecided with the filters yet.

I also know people who have tried B & W.

Balance rings sell them in some stores like Amazon?

As you comment, you could also try the Variable ND of B & W or some other brand, someone else tested?

Thanks
