I just picked up the DJI Mini 4 Pro and I’m absolutely loving the camera quality, but I’m struggling to keep my shutter speed at double my frame rate during bright afternoon flights. I want to achieve that smooth, cinematic motion blur, especially when shooting in 4K/60fps. I’ve been looking at sets from Freewell and Skyreat, but I’m torn between getting standard NDs or the ND/PL circular polarizers to help with glare and water reflections. Does anyone have experience with which brand offers the best color neutrality without affecting the gimbal calibration? Which specific filter set would you say is a must-have for a new Mini 4 Pro owner?

Basically the consensus is Skyreat 3-Pack ND Filter Set for DJI Mini 4 Pro for $25. Better value than Freewell maybe? Just make sure to check ur gimbal calibration tho... better safe than sorry!

heavy glass highkey strains gimbal motors. before i suggest Freewell DJI Mini 4 Pro ND/PL Filters, are u flying over water? maybe Skyreat 3-Pack ND Filter Set for DJI Mini 4 Pro is safer.

In my experience after years of flying, I'd suggest the Skyreat 3-Pack ND Filter Set for DJI Mini 4 Pro (ND16, ND64, ND256) if ur looking to save cash. At around $25, theyre highkey the best value. - Solid color neutrality
- No gimbal calibration issues
- Way cheaper than name brands Honestly, stick to standard NDs first... PL filters are kinda a pain to adjust mid-flight anyway. gl!

Adding my two cents since I've tried a few of these now. I'm always a bit paranoid about putting extra weight on these tiny gimbals, so I've tested a few different sets to see what works well without causing errors. Basically, I want reliability over everything else.
- DJI Mini 4 Pro ND Filters Set (ND16/64/256): Super light, zero balance issues, perfect color. Very satisfied with these for basic stuff.
- Freewell DJI Mini 4 Pro All Day 6-Pack ND Filters: Great variety, feels a bit more premium, but the weight is still within limits.
- Skyreat 3-Pack ND Filter Set for DJI Mini 4 Pro: Good budget pick but I noticed some slight color shifting in the ND256. I've been sticking with the Freewell set lately and it's been performing great. No complaints at all regarding motor stress or calibration errors. Just make sure whatever you buy clicks in properly... had a cheap one fly off once mid-air and it was definitely not a fun day.
