NEEWER CPL + ND Filter Set for DJI Mavic 4 Pro (4 Pack)
Product description
What it is
A compact filter set designed for the DJI Mavic 4 Pro, comprising one CPL and three ND filters (ND8, ND16, ND32) with a screw-on mount and a magnetic storage case for outdoor use.
What it does
The ND filters reduce incoming light by 3, 4 and 5 stops respectively, helping to prevent overexposure in bright conditions and enabling motion blur for dynamic footage. The CPL filter cuts reflections from water, glass and other non‑metal surfaces while boosting colour saturation and contrast.
Key features in use
The filters are crafted from multicoated optical glass to improve colour accuracy and clarity, with coatings that resist water, dust, smudges and scratches. The frame is aluminium alloy, keeping weight down to about 5 g per filter so gimbal balance isn’t significantly affected. A dedicated magnetic storage case keeps the four filters organised between shoots.
How it performs in real use
In bright sunlight you’ll notice more workable exposure without needing to push the ISO, and the CPL helps when filming near water or glassy surfaces. Rotating the CPL frame lets you dial the polarising effect to taste. The set is lightweight and designed for easy on‑the‑go changes, which is handy for on-location shoots.
What stands out and what may feel limiting
On the plus side, the combination of ND and CPL filters offers a practical all-in-one solution for aerial footage, with clear notes on exposure control and colour. The main consideration is that, like any filter set, it won’t replace other creative tools in every scenario—extreme lighting or highly specialised colour grading may still require additional gear or post-processing.
Who it’s for
Content creators and influencers who shoot outdoors with a Mavic 4 Pro and want reliable, ready-to-use light control without bulky setup. It suits those who value portability and easy install while maintaining drone performance.
When it makes sense to buy
If you frequently shoot in bright environments or near reflective surfaces, this four‑pack covers common needs. The small weight and simple screw-on design reduce setup time, which is beneficial for quick-turnaround shots or travel shoots.
When you might skip it
If your typical footage already benefits from higher-end, budget-aware alternatives, or if you regularly require filters with different densities beyond ND8/16/32, you may want to explore options with more density variety or different polarisation strengths.
What to check before buying
Ensure the filters match the Mavic 4 Pro lens thread and that you’re comfortable with screw-on installation. Consider how the magnetic case will fit into your bag and whether you’ll need additional cleaning materials beyond the included cloth.
Practical use example
Imagine filming a fast‑moving landscape at late afternoon. The ND32 helps maintain a pleasant motion blur through clouds and water, while the CPL reduces glare from a lake surface, leaving colours more vibrant in the resulting footage.
FAQ
- Do these filters affect autofocus or image sharpness? They are designed to preserve colour accuracy and clarity, with multi‑coated glass to minimise artefacts, but any filter can alter sharpness slightly depending on conditions.
- Is the set light enough for long sessions? At around 5 g per filter, the overall weight is unlikely to disrupt gimbal balance for typical drone setups.
- Are replacements available if one filter gets damaged? The base set includes four filters and a storage case, check the vendor’s replacement policy for single filters.
Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you need practical, on‑go light control for aerial shots and value easy installation with a protective case. If your priority is a broader range of densities or more rugged polarisation options, this set may feel a touch limited.
