Don't you have to attack from the other direction and have two towers to line up? smile
..and in another country in a different century... but hey.
And despite what it said in the dam busters movie - not all the dams had two towers.

I wondered that smile Did you hear the dumb presenter comment - along the lines of "He must have been standing on high ground to take that"

I'd advise against filters
I use my mavic for stills and there is no need in that mode
For video people like to use them to get better exposures which they then tweak in software for the "look" they want
My other reason for not using them is they add weight (and load) to a very small and complex gimbal. I'd rather not cause an issue DJI will reject a warranty claim on.

Good points, I hadn't considered any warranty issues.

If the filters work the same as they do on my Phantom 3, you unscrew the standard clear glass and screw on the filter. Weight difference would be negligible if anything.

It also gives you the advantage if you wish to shoot video and images at the same time.

Their use in video is very useful as it allows you to get your exposure to around 1/50 which gives the most natural looking footage.
