    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    As previously discussed in this thread, I have been evaluating the performance characteristics of NEEWER ND Filters specifically for the NEO 2. In summary, I advise caution when using these filters. Having owned DJI MAVIC and MINI platforms, the NEO 2 (and NEO) are suitable for quick use in a...

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    A quote from NEEWER Customer Service. “…Due to the Neo 2's unique structure, the gimbal locks the maximum angle, so we recommend using it after powering it on, or taking off horizontally; otherwise, the gimbal won't automatically detect and allow it to pass...” I am not exactly sure what...

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    Honestly - I think it's end-user / operator error (me) when it comes to the correct / exact placement of the clip / prongs. In my photograph -- I initially positioned the clip / prongs on the RED Line. I later repositioned the clip / prongs further back (GREEN Line). I ran a few tests and the...

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    The jury is still out... It's been very cold and windy outside, so I decided to run a few test flights in a control environment (basketball gym). It's been a trial and error / learning curve when it comes to using these NEEWER ND Filters: (1) Properly Attaching the ND Filter to the Gimbal...

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    Thank you for the feedback. Yes -- it is so COLD outside (single digit) in NYC (LOL)... I did a few "indoor" sorties in an empty basketball gym. Darn "Clip" didn't fall off :-). So far so good ! Happy / Safe Flying !

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    I finally received my purchase order of the NEEWER ND Filters for the NEO 2. As mentioned earlier, I was a little skeptical about “other” magnetic / adhesive versions. I have a few remarks to share: (1) The added weight of the ND Filter requires you to power up (at rest) the NEO 2 on a...

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    I will repost and update once I have a chance to evaluate the Clip Version from NEEWER. The version I use for my Neo (K&F Concept) works fine …

    ND Filters: NEO 2 Clip vs Adhesive Magnetic Ring

    I plan to purchase a set of NEEWER ND Filters (Clip On) for my NEO 2. Any member feedback / comments? Secure? Issues ? I have a similar design/ set for my NEO (K/F Concepts)…works fine !

    ROCKET MODE vs. Gimbal Guard (Frame) > Vignette Effect ?

    Update ~ I took the NEO on a holiday vacation (Mexico ~ Elevation 8K ft). Wind conditions were 3-6 MPH. The “Plastic” design (snap on) worked well without edge guard interference (Vignette) in Rocket Mide . My only gripe with the “Plastic” version is the clearance (direct line of site)...

    ROCKET MODE vs. Gimbal Guard (Frame) > Vignette Effect ?

    On slight windy days as the NEO tries to compensate and adjust to maintain a level lift / flight path), I noticed in ROCKET MODE (camera / gimbal tilted a full 90-degrees downward), that the video image will capture an "edge shadow frame" (aka - vignette effect) from the rear portion of the...
