Nisi ND8/PL Filter for DJI Air 2S Drone
A lightweight 3-stop ND/polariser filter that cuts glare and extends shutter speed for smoother DJI Air 2S footage
- 3-stop ND/PL filter smooths motion and cuts glare
- Optical glass with Nano coating delivers sharp, colour-accurate footage
- Ultra-light 1 g aluminium frame passes drone start-up calibration
- Water-repellent surface beads moisture for easy cleaning
- Low-reflection design minimises lens flare in bright conditions
Purpose-Built Filter for DJI Air 2S
The NiSi ND8/PL is a single 3-stop neutral density filter with an integrated polariser made specifically for the DJI Air 2S drone camera. It targets aerial photographers and videographers who need to control exposure and cut glare without adding perceptible weight to the gimbal. The filter passes the drone's startup calibration routine, so the aircraft recognises it immediately and operates normally.
Optical Construction and Handling
High-definition optical glass is housed in an ultra-light air frame with aircraft-aluminium construction weighing approximately one gram. NiSi Nano coating repels water and resists fingerprints, keeping the surface clean during field changes. Low-reflection properties and IR technology minimise colour cast, preserving true-to-life tones straight from the sensor.
Creative Control in Bright Conditions
The ND8 density lengthens shutter speed by three stops, enabling natural motion blur at cinematic frame rates in strong daylight. The built-in polariser blocks polarised light from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass, eliminating reflections and deepening sky contrast. Together they expand creative possibilities without requiring separate filters or post-production fixes.

Questions about this item
How do I install the ND8/PL filter on the DJI Air 2S camera, and what step do people often miss?
Remove the stock gimbal cover by twisting counter-clockwise, then thread the NiSi filter clockwise until snug. The step often missed is running the gimbal calibration in the DJI Fly app afterward so the drone recognises the added ~1 g mass.
What maintenance will this filter need over time?
The NiSi Nano coating repels water and oil; rinse with lukewarm water, blow off dust with a blower, then wipe gently with a clean microfibre cloth. No re-coating or lubrication is required.
What limit appears first during extended flights with this filter fitted?
The polariser darkens the image by three stops, so in fading light the camera must lower shutter speed or raise ISO, introducing motion blur or noise before the battery runs out.
