What are the best ND Filters for the DJI Mini 2?

I know a lot of people who will recommend the Freewell 8-pack set. I personally use the 6-pack of Skyreat Filters. Cheaper and haven't had issues just make sure you install them properly.

Hello there Alvara74. Good day and thank you for the inquiry. I hope that our fellow DJI co pilots can give out there best recommendation and on what ND filters they are using on there DJI Mini 2. Just a friendly, reminder that DJI does not recommend you to your 3rd party accessories like ND filters on your DJI Drones or modify your DJI product. These 3rd party accessories might affect the said DJI drone when in use. Actually, there is a possibility that these 3rd party accessories will be able work. However, since it's not yet optimized and tested by DJI we cannot guaranteed the stability of the said 3rd party accessory if it will work all the time with no issues and might void the warranty of the said DJI product. Thank you.

Ok, then do plan to release DJI nd filters for the mini 2? What are owners supposed to do, not shoot on sunny days?

I don't understand the question - it was clearly answered!
Buy filters according to your taste from a third party. You are sure to be able to e.g. Search Amazon for it and read the recessions;)
Cheap filters do not necessarily have to be bad, but the chance that these e.g. vignetting is high - read the recessions!
PS: Even on very sunny days I have never "needed" an ND filter - there are other ways too ...

Sunnylife do a set thats good value to get you started.

Yes, I've got a set of the Sunnylife filters (ND/CPL) - they were like NZ$30 and they work fine.

Freewell for the win.  Well made filters.

Actually Sunnylife are really good filters, I bought some skyreat but they kept falling off so sent them back and got sunnylife excellent buy..

The Freewell 8-pack set isn't available in the UK. I have to order them from the EU and pay customs etc which make them too expensive. Only the one piece filters are available and I don't think it would be worth it to buy 6 Freewell Filters and carry around 6 cases. I was also thinking about Skyreat but I've heard a lot of reviews about how they just fall off mid flight. Has this ever been an issue for you?

The Mini series is aimed at beginners so I doubt DJI would make ND Filters for it since a lot of beginners won't be getting into high level photography and videography. If they had to release a set of filters for the Mini 2, they would have done so near when it was released just like the Mavic Air and the AIR 2S

Since I live in the UK, I mainly need the ND Filters for photography to get the silky textures in my photos from clouds/water. I asked the for the best ND Filters because if I'm going to get them, might as well get some with good quality.

Here is a recent comparison of Freewell and Skyreat, that allows you to judge for yourself from Windswept Robert (love his channel):
I have the Freewell set and it works for me!

My point is that they warn against using 3rd party, but don’t provide any of their own options.

Beginner or not, it’s pretty necessary for bright daylight flights.

Yeah, that's true. They're a great edition for photography and videography

Have you ever experienced them falling off?

Because there have been several reviews about them falling off

Also, have you ever experienced some vignetting from Skyreat Filters?

Are you sure they are of good quality? I'd rather buy a good set than waste money on some with poor quality

That's nonsense.
You can get perfectly good results on bright sunny days without using filters.
It sounds like you don't understand what the filters actually do.

Okay, thank you. I'll give them a try!

It can happen if the filter is not seared properly. I really like mine and as long as I seat them no problems.

Ah, okay I get it

So most of the time, its user error

That makes the filter fall

Or cause vignetting
