Better Videos in Bright Light! ND Filters with Osmo Action

How to Tame Bright Light with ND Filters: Osmo Action ND Filters Tutorial

The DJI Osmo Action has been out for almost two years, and is still a great action camera. When it was released, it featured a monitor on the back and front of the camera, much earlier than GoPro released their camera GoPro Hero 9 with a front facing monitor. While we eagerly await to see if DJI releases and Osmo Action 2, the Osmo Action still holds up well as one of the best action cameras in 2021.

In this video, I'll give you a brief tutorial and tips for how to use ND Filters with the DJI Osmo Action.

Like sunglasses for our own eyes, ND Filters can filter really bright light conditions.

Since the Osmo Action has a fixed aperture (or lens opening), if you're trying to capture smooth, natural motion in your videos, you may need to filter excess light so you can slow down shutter speeds to go along with the right frame rate. Doing that will give you that smooth motion blur in your videos, and it's also known as shooting cinematic video.

In this video, I'll give you a DJI Osmo Action ND Filters Tutorial. I'll highlight some basics of using ND Filters, and give you some examples on how to use them properly for capturing more natural looking video for your personal videos, vlogs, and action camera shots. While not all-encompassing, this will be your quick tutorial for how to use some of the best ND Filters for DJI Osmo Action.
