Thank you DJI Tony - I'm happy to help

Nice video

Thank you for a most informative video. Applicable to other photography as well.

Very informative   

Thank you for the tips

Thanks for sharing this tips.

3 things:

1. Turning down the Saturation beyond -1 actually decreases Dynamic Range and introduces a Blue color cast.
2. The Mavic 2 Pro image becomes softer after f/5.6 due to diffraction, your aperture should be ideally between f/2.8 and f/4. Anything above f/5.6 is a no go.
3. "The polarizing effect changes with the horizontal leveling of your aircraft" ????????? "...but with a gimbal stabilized camera this shouldn't be an issue" ?????? WHAAAAAAAT?

Polarization has absolutely nothing to do with the gimbal stabilization nor the horizon of your aircraft. Polarization is stronger or weeker in relation to the sun. Idealy 90 degrees in relation to the sun (perpendicular). Also one has to be careful with wide angle lenses (like drones have) because a polarizer filter can introduce weird uneven patterns in the sky.

Friend I have the feeling that you thought that it would be cool to make another video but seriously, you should not try to teach about topics you don't understand. Unfortunately collecting information from the web without having any practical application is not enough.

Hi
I am a hobbyist camera guy and always trying to learn more. I found that using the new Skyreat ND/PL filters were fun to experiment with over water reducing the sun glare. With the sun overhead or 90* from the angle I am shooting gave me really good results. Here are some of my test shots

Exactly, I don't think 'Elevation', 'Horizon' and 'Gimbal' had much to do with it... lol

Nice.
