I shoot mainly landscapes and we have a lot of fine detail here in grasses, shrubs etc. The Mavic Pro settings straight out of the box weren't working for me causing "moireing". Also the high shutter speed I needed to use in our harsh outback light didn't give me the cinematic movement I needed. So I changed the camera settings via "custom" and brought the shutter speed down to a constant 1/50th (@25P) by using 3rd party filters. I hope you like the result:

Outstanding Video.  What third party filters please.

I'm using the Polar Pro professional pack John and Sue, which includes circular polarizer, 3 stop, 4 stop and 5 stop NDs, plus 3 stop and 4 stop ND/PL combos. There are issues with the original series (the ones I am using) as they give a "gimbal overload warning" if you put them on before the machine initializes. They have much lighter ones coming out any day now that should fix that issue. I'm hoping they will swap mine over but they haven't made that offer as yet. The main filters on the daytime cumulus cloud shots were the ND/PL combos.
