Neutral Density 64 / Polarizer Hybrid Filter for DJI Mavic 4 Pro by Freewell (FW-M4P-ND64/PL)

The Freewell Neutral Density 64 / Polarizer Hybrid Filter for DJI Mavic 4 Pro is a combined optical accessory that reduces incoming light by 6 stops while providing polarization to control reflections and enhance color saturation. Designed to mount directly to the Mavic 4 Pro camera, this hybrid filter enables longer shutter speeds and smoother motion blur in bright outdoor conditions, helping videographers and photographers achieve consistent exposure and improved image quality during aerial shoots.

Advantages

This hybrid ND64/Polarizer filter integrates neutral density and polarizing functions in a single element, eliminating the need to swap separate filters in the field. The 6-stop light reduction allows for slower shutter speeds for cinematic motion and motion blur control, while the polarizing layer reduces glare from water, glass, and other reflective surfaces and increases color saturation. The filter is engineered to maintain optical clarity and minimize color cast, so footage retains natural tones and sharpness.

Suitable for

• Aerial videography in bright daylight where smoother shutter speeds are required
• Landscape photography from drone platforms with reflective surfaces (water, glass, wet terrain)
• Time-lapse and slow-motion recordings that require reduced light and consistent exposure
• Commercial drone shoots needing accurate color rendering and reduced highlights

Key specifications

• Optical function: Combined neutral density (6-stop) and linear polarizer
• Light reduction: 6 stops (ND64)
• Compatibility: Designed for DJI Mavic 4 Pro camera mounting
• Construction: Multi-coated glass element for improved transmission and reduced reflections
• Finish: Low-profile design to fit gimbal clearance and maintain balance

How to use

Attach the filter to the DJI Mavic 4 Pro camera according to the drone manufacturer and Freewell mounting instructions, ensuring the filter is seated securely and the gimbal range is unobstructed. For polarization control, rotate the filter to the desired angle while observing through the drone’s live view until reflections and glare are minimized and color saturation is optimized. When using ND64, set the camera exposure to achieve the target shutter speed (typically double the frame rate for natural motion blur in video) and verify exposure using histograms or zebras if available. Remove or replace the hybrid filter when shooting in low light or when the polarizing effect is not needed.

Usage recommendations

Use the ND64/Polarizer hybrid in bright, outdoor conditions where both light reduction and reflection control are required. For video, start with a shutter speed approximately double your frame rate and adjust ISO to maintain image quality. For scenes with strong reflections from water or glass, rotate the polarizer while monitoring live view to find the optimal balance between glare reduction and color rendering.
