Hi guys, i just bought my first ND set for Mavic Air, I went with Polar Pro because i heard that they have the best quality, even if that mean to spend a little bit more.
I chose a custom set (ND8/PL ND16/PL ND32/PL) for having the best range of filter plus the polarization (i can always turn the filter the other way around if i don't need the polariziation in some scene.
That's it for now I just wanted to share my happiness with you.

P.s I'm also wondering if the custom ordered filter will arrive with that nice hardcase that you have with regular order.

I understand that you will be using Polar Pro ND Filters for your Mavic Air. I just want to remind you that the Polar Pro ND Filters is a 3rd party device and we do not recommend 3rd party devices to be used on DJI drones. 3rd party devices might have an effect on the drone's performance and it might void the warranty of the drone.

PolarPro just came out with some long-exposure filters that I will be seriously considering as I want to give long exposure shots a try.  They have up to a 10 stop(ND1000) which is perfect to get those good daytime water long exposure shots.

Great! I planned to get long exposure too. But the only complain from my side is app polarpro on Android is too bad compared to iOS version.

I do not think you would need the app for the long exposure ones?  I mean all you are doing it getting your EV down to around 0 which should be about 3-4" based on ND1000 which is 10 stops.  I really would not think one would need an app for this.  I think that may be for the other kinds of filters like Polarized

Hi guys, yesterday I received my Polar Pro ND filter, I haven’t had the time to try them out but i’m Looking forward to do it.
Here’s a couple of picture, for everyone who is wondering, when you buy the custom 3-pack filters they send them out with a single little hard case for each filter and a little cloth, that’s so cool!

Hey pilots, a quick question. I am in the midsts of ordering a set of Polar Pro ND filters. There is one called the Vivid collection which has ND 4, 8 and 16 PL. There is also a set called the Shutter Collection which has the ND 8, 16 and 32. What does the PL mean on the vivid set and what is the difference? As a beginner to all of this which would you recommend?

THe PL stand for Polarized and basically it takes away the solar glare while shooting. Also you can rotate the filter to achive different level of polarization so you can basically "turn it off", and i went for the PL one.
