Which ND and Polarizer filters do you recommend?

[Hassentassen]

Hi,

After reading on the forum I see filters mentioned several times and that they are smart to use, especially in bright sunshine. I will be doing a lot of videos during the summer and over sea. I am hoping to not spend more than 50-80$, unless I need to og higher to get fair quality filters.

Is there any filter pack you can recommend on either Amazon, B&H or Ebay? Or do I have to buy invididual filters? Would a ND8, ND16 and polarizer be enough?

Cheers,
Jorgen

I've had the Polar Pro, the Snake River Air, and the Peau Productions GoPro filters. They all work, are good, and I think that I like them in that order (least to best).

How many different ones will I need? ND8, ND16 and a polarizer?

Personally I am always using ND4 and 8. I've never needed above an 8.

I use a 32 most of the time over sand and water. Doesn't hurt to have a 64 in the bag of tricks either. PL versions are good to have also although not as important.

I ended up ordering the Neewer set, with ND8, 16, 32 and polarizer. Hoping it is good enough quality wise considering the price.

Don't forget to balance the gimbal for the additional weight
