Rollei presents filters for DJI drones

New ND, Pol, and Astroklar Filters

Rollei's F:X Pro series photographic filters are extremely popular. Sold thousands of times, photographers worldwide use them to create their shots. And now there's great news for drone pilots, as Rollei is now making its quality filters available for "flying optics." The drone filters come in the form of three filter sets each for four different models from the manufacturer DJI. They are suitable for all filmmakers and drone pilots who want to optimize their photo and video results with ND, Pol, and Astroklar filters.

Hamburg/Norderstedt, 30.07.2020 – Rollei is expanding its product range with drone filter sets for four different DJI models. The sets are based on the high-quality "F:X Pro" series and offer its proven characteristics, such as high color fidelity, temperature resistance, low reflections, and robustness. Rollei offers the filter sets for the DJI models "Mavic 2 Pro," "Mavic 2 Zoom," "Mavic Mini," and "Mavic Air 2." A set can contain filters of different intensities and filter types, such as ND, CPL, or Astroklar filters (see below).

Simply attached to the drone camera, the new filters offer all the advantages of ND, Pol, and Astroklar filters, ensuring, for example, even light reduction without altering colors. While most drones allow for ISO value and shutter speed adjustments, aperture cannot be changed. ND filters address this problem by preventing overexposure and delivering dynamic results with motion blur and flow effects. Some filter sets also include combination filters (ND-Pol filters). Polarizing filters are in demand when reflections on non-metallic surfaces, such as water or glass, are to be avoided. And an Astroklar filter is also included in each set, which can correct color changes at night caused by light pollution. Polarizing filters are in demand when reflections on non-metallic surfaces, such as water or glass, are to be avoided.

Drone Filter Set 1

Four filters included: ND4, ND8, ND16, and an Astroklar filter. ND filters prevent overexposure in sunlight and extend exposure time, allowing for higher frame rates (FPS).

Drone Filter Set 2

Four filters included: ND4/CPL, ND8/CPL, ND16/CPL, and an Astroklar filter. The combined ND and polarizing filters not only extend exposure time, thus enabling higher frame rates, but they also reduce reflections on non-metallic surfaces and intensify colors.

Drone Filter Set 3

Seven filters included: ND4, ND8, ND16, ND4/CPL, ND8/CPL, ND16/CPL, and an Astroklar filter. The third set is a combination of Set 1 and Set 2. All included filter strengths come as both ND and ND-Pol filters. This allows for the selection of the appropriate filter depending on the shooting situation.
