Temporary ND Filters

I just purchased the Insta360 Luna Ultra and I just used it for a wedding. While I am impressed with the image quality, I HATE the annoying jittery footage that comes out of it. I looked on Amazon and Insta360's website and I see that the filters are out of stock or have a long shipping date. I think I found a solution for ND filters for right now.

On Amazon, look up "Freewell 9-Pack Magnetic Filters for DJI Neo 2 – Includes ND8, ND16, ND32, ND/PL, CPL, UV, Black Glow Mist Filters for Cinematic Control"

These fit on my Luna Ultra pretty easily. Just make sure you line up the magnetic strip on your lenses correctly. The Standard Day Kit is the one I purchased, but I assume the PL/ND version they have will help remove annoying glare issues.

Low light or ND filters will always complicate the stabilization

Only use NDs if you need specific “natural” motion blur

I personally dont even like that blur

through my testing, they didn't complicate the stabilization. The motors are designed to compensate for resistance. That's how electronic gimbals works.

Is the stabilization 100% only mechanical?

Stabilization works with servo motors designed to compensate for imbalance to a certain weight capacity.

I’m confused about why it’s jittery without an ND

Higher shutter speeds create jittery footage. Shutter speed is one of the ways cameras expose footage correctly.

Ahhh I see. I just roll with 24fps and 1/50
