Hello!
Just got my ND-filters which i bought from PhantomDK here in the forum.
I had to use the darkest ND-16 in all flying scenes, since it was a very bright and sunny day. I think my shutter was at 1/200 and faster even with the filter on.
Would be nice with some feedback. View in 4k for best experience

Opening segment from overhead, the whites are a l little blown out. But once you get out on the open water, things look really nice. Nice contrast and saturation. Did you color grade in post,or is that right out of the camera.

I just purchased a set of 3 ND filters, but haven't been able to put them to the test yet.

But overall, your stuff look really nice!

Good job...I was more impressed with the handling of the bird. Were you using IOC by chance?

Nice work!  Great flying.  Fun video.  Thanks for posting.  I look forward to seeing more.
As for the exposure...  I assume you are shooting in LOG mode?  If not I do recommend it.

The color balance looks a bit magenta.  (Very comon for this DJI camera.)   Otherwise it's nice footage.

Mixed with  a GoPro ?     some of the POV doesn't equate to what a drone would be shooting ....  ie.....   view pont from the rear of the boat (not moving ) while the boarder is zig zagging  and at the end    The POV is  from the water looking UP at people in the back of the boat .   But I do like the aerial footage    That was nicely done

Nice video.  Good flying, looks very smooth.  I have a question about your flight, did you launch it from the boat?   I tried over the weekend from a boat and had serious drifting issues.   Just want to know your procedure, did you hand takeoff , or off the deck of the boat.  It's appears you did not have any issues.  
Thanks

ThanksYeah the highlights are a little blown out Even with the darkest ND-filter on
I color graded the footage using fcpx and some luts.. You can use either lutbuddy or color finale to import luts.
Camera was set to LOG mode and saturation -2 contract -2 and sharpening 0

Yes LOG mode with saturation -2 and contrast -2 i think.
Actually i think the magenta came from the coloring in post, but im not sure.
Ive also heard that some ND-filters can create tint, but not sure if thats the case here.

Some ND filters do tend to shift the hue.  But if you are using the automatic white balance it will tend to compensate for the filter tint.  The sunlight setting will not.
The Magenta tint seems to be comon with a lot of footage I see from the P3 cameras.  It's very easy to correct in post.
