Know before you buy
An ND-PL filter combines neutral density and circular polarizer technology into one piece of glass. This allows you to reduce the amount of light entering the lens while simultaneously cutting glare and reflections, which is essential for capturing clear, saturated footage over water or glass surfaces.
The choice depends on your lighting conditions and desired shutter speed. Use lower numbers like ND8 for overcast or early morning light, and higher numbers like ND32 or ND64 for bright, midday sun to maintain the '180-degree shutter rule' for natural-looking motion blur.
PGYTECH designed these filters to be lightweight, so they generally do not interfere with the Mavic 3's gimbal startup or calibration. However, it is always best practice to attach the filter before powering on your drone to ensure the gimbal initializes correctly.
Yes, they feature a secure screw-in mounting system that is designed for quick and reliable attachment. It is straightforward to swap them between flights without needing any tools.
No, you will need to remove the stock lens cover from the Mavic 3 camera before installing these filters. The filters are designed to mount directly onto the lens housing.
