Mavic Air 2 Variable ND - 6-9 Stop, 2-5 Stop
Tired of carrying too many tiny filters for your drone? So were we. So we made the world’s first cinema-grade Variable NDs for Mavic Air 2.
Our Cine Variable ND filters are the secret sauce to controlling your exposure on your drone. Made with premium Fused Silica Glass, these filters are crisp edge to edge without color fringing or cross-polarizing. By using aerospace-grade aluminum we were able to cut unnecessary weight out of the filter body in order to maintain peak gimbal functionality. Precision machined grip provides easy control over your filter strength and easy removal from the drone. Made to shoot on the go, the filters also feature hard stops at both ends of the range to prevent unwanted cross-polarization for the cleanest image possible.

Moment Mavic Air 2 Variable ND 2–5 Stop — Cinema-Grade Exposure Control for Drone Travel Footage
The gist: A premium variable neutral density filter (equivalent to ND4–ND32) purpose-built for the DJI Mavic Air 2 — enables the cinematic 180-degree shutter rule in moderately bright daylight without sacrificing gimbal performance.
- Adjustable 2–5 stop range: Covers ND4 to ND32 equivalent, letting you dial in the correct exposure for changing light conditions without swapping fixed ND filters in the field.
- Fused silica glass optics: Premium optical glass delivers edge-to-edge sharpness without color fringing or cross-polarization — the kind of quality that holds up when footage is color-graded.
- Gimbal-compatible weight: Aerospace-grade aluminum body cuts unnecessary mass to maintain peak DJI Mavic Air 2 gimbal functionality — no drift or horizon-tilt issues from filter weight.
- Hard stops prevent cross-polarization: Both ends of the adjustment range click into hard stops, eliminating the X-pattern artifact that ruins footage if a VND is adjusted too far.
DroneDJ noted these as Moment's “cinema-grade” solution for the Mavic Air 2, highlighting the fused silica glass construction and precise haptic adjustment as differentiators over budget filter alternatives.
Best for: DJI Mavic Air 2 pilots shooting travel video in moderate to bright daylight who want variable exposure control without carrying a stack of fixed ND filters. Skip it if: You fly a different drone model — this filter is machined specifically for the Mavic Air 2 gimbal and is not compatible with other DJI models. Check the current price before buying.
