Go pro mod

[Parkway]

Wasn't sure where to post this, but I recently did a go pro mod to get rid of the blurry prop you get in videos. I bought a camera filter attachment and mounted it to the go pro case, and bought a kit of different filters, so now I can screw on whatever lens I need for the day.

 

Works great and much cheaper than buying the one specifically for go pros.

I used Neutral Density filters, 1.2 seems best for getting rid of prop blur but also have a 0.9 and 0.6 to play around with

I put ND filters on my GoPros, but I find that it reduces the crispness of the footage. I'm thinking to take them off as I'd rather have wobbly props and crisp scenery than the reverse.

 

Thanks for posting though. I'd like to know more about how you mounted this to the case.

Yeah that's why I got a few different filters to play around with, on a really bright glary day I would imagine it would help to have a filter. If it's overcast I would probably just not use a filter and accept the blurry prop.

 

I just drilled tiny holes to line up with the existing go pro cases holes, and used the existing screws.

 

I haven't had a chance to fly with it yet but when i do I'll post how I went. I have 0.6 , 0.9 and 1.2 ND filters
