OBSBOT Tail Air ND Filter Set
Best light control for outdoor video creators.
Achieve optimal lighting control with this set of four magnetic neutral density filters. Designed to reduce light intake by two to five stops, these filters prevent sensor oversaturation and allow for greater control over exposure and aperture. This enables a shallower depth of field for more cinematic shots. The magnetic mounting system ensures quick attachment, and an included balance weight maintains gimbal stability during operation without compromising color accuracy.

Yes, it is recommended to use the balance weight whenever a filter is attached. Because the OBSBOT Tail Air uses a motorized gimbal, the extra weight of the filter can cause strain or instability if the camera is not properly re-balanced.
These filters feature a magnetic mounting system. They snap directly onto the front of the lens housing, allowing for quick and easy swaps without the need for threading or complex tools.
No, these filters are designed to preserve color integrity. They are engineered to reduce light intake without introducing color casts, ensuring your footage remains natural and accurate.
ND filters act like sunglasses for your camera, allowing you to maintain a wider aperture or slower shutter speed in bright environments. This helps you achieve a shallower depth of field and more cinematic motion blur, which can be difficult to capture in high-light settings without overexposing your image.
