NiSi Filter Starter Kit Mavic Air 2

NiSi Filter Starter Kit Mavic Air 2 – ND8, ND16, ND32 and Enhanced Polariser for refined motion and color

This NiSi Starter Kit is designed specifically for the DJI Mavic Air 2 and includes three neutral density (ND) filters and an Enhanced Polariser. Use the kit to control exposure, lengthen shutter speed for smoother motion, and reduce glare while improving color saturation in your aerial footage.

What’s included

• ND8 filter
• ND16 filter
• ND32 filter
• Enhanced Polariser filter

Key optical features

Each NiSi filter for the Mavic Air 2 uses high-definition optical glass that is free from color cast and delivers sharp images. NiSi applies Nano coating to the filters to make them easy to clean and highly water resistant; water beads up and falls straight off. The coating also keeps reflections very low for clearer images.

Construction and build

The filters use a lightweight airframe built from aircraft-grade aluminum. This construction keeps the filters light while providing a durable frame suitable for drone use.

How the ND filters help your footage

NiSi ND filters reduce the amount of light entering the camera, which effectively lengthens shutter speed. As a result, you achieve a more natural sense of motion when filming. This makes videos look smoother and more cinematic when capturing moving subjects or when the drone is in motion.

Additionally, NiSi ND filters for the Mavic Air 2 feature IR technology, the same approach used in NiSi’s square filters, to reduce color cast and preserve true-to-life color.

How the Enhanced Polariser improves images

The NiSi Polariser reduces reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized after reflecting from non-metallic surfaces. Sunlight becomes partially polarized when it scatters from air molecules and reflects off surfaces, contributing to haze and unwanted reflections.

The polariser arranges and filters this directionally polarized light relative to the reflected light, allowing the camera to absorb much of the scattered light. The result is a noticeable reduction in glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces, along with increased saturation of skies and foliage.

The NiSi Enhanced Polariser for the Mavic Air 2 provides enhanced color compared to a standard polarising filter, which increases the perceived saturation of the scene when used.

Ease of use and compatibility

NiSi Filters for the Mavic Air 2 are easy to attach and remove from the camera, making them practical for field use and quick setup changes. All NiSi filters for this drone model pass the startup calibration process, ensuring compatibility with the aircraft’s systems.

Use cases

• Lengthen shutter speed for more natural motion in video
• Reduce glare and reflections over water, glass, or wet surfaces
• Increase color saturation in skies and foliage with the Enhanced Polariser
• Maintain accurate colors using ND filters with IR technology to limit color cast

FAQ

Question: Are these filters compatible with DJI Mavic Air 2 only?

Answer: The NiSi Filter Starter Kit is designed specifically for the DJI Mavic Air 2 and the filters are sized and built to match that aircraft’s camera system and startup calibration requirements.

Question: How do I clean the filters and handle water or moisture?

Answer: NiSi applies a Nano coating that makes the glass easy to clean and water resistant; water beads up and falls off. For best results, gently wipe with a suitable lens cloth and avoid abrasive materials.

Question: Will the ND filters affect color accuracy in my footage?

Answer: NiSi ND filters for the Mavic Air 2 include IR technology to reduce color cast and help maintain true-to-life color, so you retain accurate color reproduction while managing exposure.

Question: What visual improvements can I expect from the Enhanced Polariser?

Answer: The Enhanced Polariser reduces glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces and increases color saturation of skies and foliage compared to a standard polariser, which helps produce more vibrant aerial footage.

Question: Do these filters affect drone startup or calibration?

Answer: All NiSi filters for the Mavic Air 2 pass the startup calibration process, ensuring they do not interfere with the drone’s normal initialization and calibration routines.
