The nd filters don’t change much, the gopro compensates by adjusting the white balance, but what it does is gives a longer shutter speed in the bright light. So if you are filming fast movement like biking or cars moving it gives you more motion blur hence why they say more cinematic but the colors and brightness looks the same. Now a polarizing filter is good on a sunny day not just for eliminating flares but also to give you a nice blue sky.
ND filters reduce the amount of light getting into the sensor, forcing the camera to reduce the shutter speed to maintain correct exposure. With lower shutter speeds you may notice motion blur. However, to actually notice motion blur, you need motion in your video or image. For example, if you put it on a drone or mounted it to a car or a bike.
Polarizer doesn’t just cut glare it removes reflections in glass and on water and will make clouds very white against a blue sky which it will also darken. ND reduces shutter speed with the intention of having shutter double the FPS you are shooting at (ie 30 FPS shoot at 1/60 ss). This enables a small amount of motion blur in moving objects to reduce video from looking jittery. If you aren’t shooting manual setting the GoPro will just change its settings to negate the Nd filter - that’s why you saw no difference.
There are a lot of private pilots that record videos from the cockpit of their planes with a propeller up front. The twirling prop gets distorted depending on the how the shutter operates in the camera which causes black lines to be visible. To prevent that, some will use an ND filter over the lens which slows down the shutter making the prop invisible or to look more normal. That is one use of the ND filter, to slow down the shutter. Works great for making a more realistic video.
I bought the 8ND, 16ND, and 32ND Cinema filters from Polar Pro. I'm going to test them out soon. Your video show minor differences with still images. Would have loved to see a comparison with moving objects. Unfortunately your video is missing that :(
ND = Neutral density. It's like a pair of sunglasses for your camera. The neutral part is that the grey color of the filter doesn't distort the colors.
I'd like to get better video quality from my hero six. So filters are in my future. I'd like to pick your brain about how I can get the best video quality out of the 6 with only its onboarding settings. When I play back video through my hdmi port to my 4k TV it doesnt look so hot.
I used a ND filter on my gopro during aviation flights I do. It helps remove the prop due to slowing down the sensor. My question. Were these presentations without post editing?
Just wondering how tight the filters are to fit. I have just been sent a second polarised as the first was to tight. Even with the second, I would have to use some solid force to get it on. Cheers
Appreciate this overview! I'm using traditional screw-on filters for my GoPro by using an Ulanzi GoPro cage (has mounting threads for filters or attachable lenses). They do make a difference, especially the CPL/polarizer (and no, I'm not biased just because the name of that filter rhymes with my channel's name).
I don't use filters on my gopro, but have often used them when using my 'real' cameras. There is a problem with polarising filters on a wide-angle lens - and the gopro is a *very* wide-angle lens! It will reduce reflection in the sky, making it bluer, *but* it works best at 90% from the light source, ie. the sun. With a wide lens, you will often get very different colours in the sky from one side of the image to the other. I had some great photos of my church, taken with a new wide-angle, and the sky in the middle is much darker than to either side - it's like a wave is flowing across the picture. Just something to bear in mind.
Thanks for the video! Just ordered mine including the Macro. Just curious, did you use your gopro while filming yourself speaking? With kind regards....
Can I rant for a couple of minutes? I’m just being polite by asking, so here it goes. My first GoPro was the 2018 budget model. I attached a Telesin polarizing filter and it made a huge difference. But with my GoPro Hero 6 Black I haven’t even tried attaching the filter yet because I’m still playing with the exposure control which my prior GoPro didn’t have, and it seems like that is enough to make the difference I want to make in my imagery. Still, I also shoot photos and video on a Canon DSLR, and I certainly use filters there, as well as on my Celestron Nexstar 6 SE computerized telescope on which I observe objects in deep space, and have to say there is a filter or two which is a must have, including the polarizing and ND filter. “Cinematic Look” is a myth. It’s genuinely aggravating to me when anyone mentions it. Cinematic Look is what your film school professor tells you is the true way to do it as opposed to maximum resolutions and frame rates available today which seem relatively hyper-real. It’s this simple; it’s your imagery, you’re the creator, present it as you like, whether that’s gear head friendly super sharp, maximum resolution, high frame rate or the significantly less sharp “Cinematic Look” your film school professor learned to use when his professor and the professor who taught him shot on film which is a completely different medium .... oh, now I’m dizzy. I’m just saying, it’s your work, or stuff, or home video, or whatever, so shoot it however looks best to your artistic vision, even if you’re a total beginner and the GoPro you got for Christmas is your first camera other than your phone. Bottom Line: It’s about light and glass, not pixels and code. You need those super high resolutions on a camera phone or action camera because both the lens and sensor are teeny tiny. On a larger camera, like the ones we use to shoot film and television, megapixel count doesn’t matter nearly as much as glass, the lenses. Your eyes, you’re doing a sport, out in the glaring sun, you know if you put on a pair of high quality sunglasses, and a hat with a brim on it, you can see everything better-the details, the color. It’s why baseball players wear baseball hats and sunglasses-so they can see the ball better. How about you? Don’t ask what is “better,” but what you want to present to the world. Don’t ask what Steven Spielberg or Quinten Tarantino would do-who both still shoot on film by the way. What do you want? What are you going to present to your audience, and more importantly yourself. What looks best to you; that’s what matters, because if it looks amazing to you, then it will also look amazing to other people.
The video is great. Thank you. Looking at Min.3:03 It would be more useful to make the 4 divisions having the same part of the shot side by side instead of forming the whole shot. I would suggest to select the part showing the lake where the glare with no ND or polarizing filter should be at the max.
Im road tripping south of Utah and would like to make my gopro video better in showing the contrast between the rock/green and the sky. What filter do u suggest ?
Based on your video, I bought a Polar Pro polarizing filter (didn't go with the neutral densities) - the polarizer works just fine, and if you're familiar with using them in other types of photo or videography, they work the same on the GoPro. Only issue I had was in saltwater conditions (I used it for shooting on a deep-sea fishing trip); the front coating on the Polar Pro doesn't shed water as cleanly as the coating on the GoPro Hero5's own housing. I think you reviewed hydrophobic coatings in another one of your videos - would definitely stress the need for those when working in environment with lots of spray.
I see that they sent you a Macro lens. It will be interesting to see if in your future videos you can combine the Macro lens with one of the polarized filters they sent you. Basically make it into a Switchblade5 for land lubbers. I can see this being very useful for boaters who want to video their watersport activities or while they are reeling in their big catch either on fresh or salt water. Using the filter to reduce glare and using the macro lens to get a zoomed in view of the action.
Both the Macro lens and the filters fit overtop of the Hero 5 Lens cover, so I don't think that'd work. The Macro lens isn't really for zooming in from far away, it's more for getting a really crisp image when you are super close to a subject - if that makes sense.
Yes, that does make sense about the macro. I knew it wasn't a true zoom, but it would provide a more close up than what I could shoot without it. So far all my GoPro footage is from diving. So I'm learning to use filters and tinkering with the settings on the camera to get better video of what I see down below. Since I video the entire dive, it means I have HUGE files to edit when I get home (average dive is 45-60 min). I like to watch the teny tiny little fish on the coral and a macro lens would really help those shots.
Great vid! FYI, the ND filter is best used moving at speed. You're correct, it does smooth.. But you have to be moving, maybe try getting some shots in a car of the surroundings whilst using it and moving of course. :)
Please, try to faceup 'Why use a ND-filter? ND-filter are usable in use if you make clips projects in motion, or you are yourself in motion. To make movies or a blue sky, a lake makes no sense for what is the purpose of an ND filter doing. You mentioned that I'm not a filmmaker. You correct. Good luck.
ND filters in video have nothing to do with improving the color etc of the image. It is about controlling light to control shutter speed. For example, shoot at 24fps it is ideal to get shutter speed down to 1/50th second. This increases blur in moving objects the blur makes the movement look smoother and more natural. This is the cinematic look that people like. Polarisers can be useful for water or glass, but it is not every clip. ND, on the other hand should be used every daylight shot. A variable ND is best for controlling shutter speed. After audio, ND filters are your most important video accessories. In photo you control aperture and ISO, and let shutter speed float. In video you control fps, aperture, and shutter speed and let ISO float.
Thanks for the info... Just got a hero session and a beginner at this gopro life... Waiting for my filters to arrive... But is there a filter used to take sunset shots... #lowlight
Always watch your videos , very good information and instruction. Recently took my hero 6 diving and I purchased the polar pro 3 filler kit for the GoPro super suit . Is there any difference between the polar pro filters and the go pro one ? I noticed the polar pro one tended to get water under it sometimes . Maybe the go pro one seals better ? Any feedback ?
Looking forward to your evaluation on the Strap mount from the box. I have been looking at one of these and would like your opinion. I use the polarizing filter as it really helps the glare. Nice comparison and split screen with all the filters.
Love, love your channel awsome facts and info I am going to try and use your vids for all my film styles and info. I think out of all the video people I've watched URS is the best info so thank u for explaining the way u do. 👍
The three fundamentals of exposure are: ISO (Film Speed), Shutter Speed (Shutter Angle), and Aperture. ND filters are used to reduce the overall amount of light in your camera so that you can open the aperture (in the lens) to get a more shallow depth of field (IE. You are in focus but the background is nice and blurry). However, the GoPro uses auto exposure, and it is probably only adjusting shutter speed in order to maintain that exposure. So you really wont get much out of ND filters. TL:DR - ND Filters dont work as intended on GoPros, but Polarizers and Gradient NDs might.
Great vid! The polarising filter works best the at certain angles. Mostly when the sun is roughly 90 degrees in relation to your gopro. I like to saw to people when the sun is on the same line as your shoulder. I just got this 3 filter set and I wish I the Polariser was part of the PolarPro cinema set. Thanks! Keep up the great vids!
These are cool & there definitely improved the image quality somewhat, I wear polarized sunglasses & there is a big difference from ordinary ones. I can see myself using at least one on my GoPro to enhance video & picture quality beyond the limits of the camera's settings or before any post production editing, it's all about getting a better user experience.
I'm a pro photographer, and although filters have their uses, most can be replicated in Adobe Photoshop...I think I agree that if you're a perfectionist, these filters may make a difference, but I don't think Pro Videographers are going to be using a lot of Go Pro footage in their work.

I do like Filters for sunsets.
The gradient filter is priceless at the beach!
Can darken the sky to match the waves and wet sand reflections.
The subject is not fully revealed. What shutter speed do you set when you apply the ND filter?
What if the filter dimming is still missing? Shutter speed AUTO solves the problem?
The filters do help if you are filming with protune on and fixed shutter speed...
Wasn't a filter person, but now I am after your video.

Lights make a person look a little ghostly. What filter keeps the brightness but gives good skin tone?

Is there any company that makes filters for the GoPro hero 7 silver can’t find any?
did you have your exposure in auto? I believe you would have to set it to manual to notice a real difference
ND = Neutral density. It's like a pair of sunglasses for your camera. The neutral part is that the grey color of the filter doesn't distort the colors.
I might need the polarized filter. I go to car shows and they’re really shiny when the sun is bright.
Would the macro filter work while filming on my motorcycle?

It's can possible with editing software. .?
how old are you?
Does the polarizing filter rotate to adjust and maximize the amount of polarization like DSLR polarizing filters?
It doesn't rotate, it's fixed.

Just want to add for anyone who read this, when he says 90% he means at a 90° angle from the light source. :)
@@sadbravesfan Wow! Thank you for the correction... It is amazing that nobody else spotted that in the last year!
So, do you put the shutter speed on manual (2xFPS) and then apply the ND, or do you leave it on auto?
I left it on auto

Hi, do you use a filter and light for your vlogging indoor and outdoor and which ones?
Any recommendations for a strap ?
I strap for the filters? They come with a little tether.
So glad I came across your video. Explanation was perfect for me and easily helped me make a decision to grab some for my gopro. Cheers!
I use PolarPro ND on my hero4. It gives better color than normal bcuz it reduces light & makes the shutter slower. 👍🏾👍🏾
How about night shot?
Aung Myo Myint u put it off at night, because it will steal the rest if the light which is available
thank you, was just thinking about buying that filter bundle!
