I imagine you will have the same 'set angle' restrictions as you get with polarisers. I think these will come in more useful for sunset/sunrise and low light flying in around a 45 degree angle from the original take off/manual grad setting. I wonder if they will ever invent a drone with ND options built into the lens or at least the ability to rotate the lens remotely. The MP has a portrait mode which can be set remotely to and from landscape during flight so the tech is already there. I'd appreciate that more than a 1" sensor.
I'm not sure about that last statement.
If the 1"sensor has a good dynamic range, you have less need for a var ND filter.
Polarizers yes, that you can't mimic with a sensor.
The polarizer (rotating) might even work, although it would require a separate motor to rotate the lens outer ring only.....
So that is rather expensive and heavy.
And a Var ND filter will require some glass movement up and down outside of the filter ring.
With a motor and mechanics....
That might be too heavy for the current gimbals I guess. |
