Didn't most of you already "order" and pay for Ranaat's filters?
Has anyone heard any updates?

Did you see the camera lens? it is 10 smaller than that filter . Vignetting would be last thing I would be worry about

Sure, I saw the camera lens as I own one. Remember that it's a 20mm (equivalent) lens we're talking about and the stock filters are very very thin and shallow for a reason. This set? Not so much.

I guess we'll see...

Here it is guys, first look at the filters in action.........had to wait for the rain and sky to clear up. It was overcast today but nonetheless I was still able to get decent comparison shots. More videos soon to follow....watch in 4K!!!!

What timeline? You can use Tiffen 37mm filters and just reverse them. Work fine and Tiffen makes great filters, plus I want a polarizer and using Tiffen I have it.

so the tiffen 37mm filters can be reversed and they work well?

something like this?:http://www.tiffen.com/displayproduct.html?tablename=filters&itemnum=37CP

thanks!

Weight "perhaps" no issue, until you will need your guarantee !

Weight only an issue if it effects balance. If so, will need to add counter balance to the rear of the I1 camera somehow. The key is not to add a load to the gimbal motors

As we produced already at 3 grams, a polarizer filter will not have the double of weight as it contains 2 filters to regulate the amount of polarizing. I will negotiate with the factory to invent a new frame to make it at 5 grams with the right DJI thread of course. It will take some time, but it is on our wish list. First finalize our ND8-16-32-64 set.

I (and I'm sure many others) are looking forward to any news you have regarding these filters. Thanks for keeping us updated.

It's nice to see a significant improvement with just the ND8 filter.
I am so excited to try out Renaat's ND8-16-32-64 set!!!

No, not a circular polarizer. Reversing it negates the polarization characteristics. A linear polarizer can be reversed. Just search for the same one in Linear.
