[QUOTE="Dan Dolar, post: 27851, member: 3954"] The inside layer of the filter ring is made up of a smooth, pliable, semi-tacky rubber surface that seems to grip onto the camera ring pretty well; I think the combination of the rubber and the semi-tackyness (if that's even a word lol) does well to hold the filter in place. I flew my Spark in Sport mode for 5 minutes like a maniac while moving gimbal up and down the whole time - the filter didn't even budge, and I also never got any warnings of a gimbal overload. Maybe over time the rubber ring might not hold on as tightly, but honestly at 38 bucks it wouldn't be a big deal to buy another set of filters. [ATTACH=full]2745[/ATTACH] They're pretty easy to put on, but because you have to press them onto the gimbal you obviously have to be careful. I pinch the sides of the gimbal with the thumb and pointer finger of one hand while I press the filter onto the camera hump with the other hand - the directions say that full contact with the camera is achieved after 10 seconds. Taking the filter off is just a matter of carefully prying the edge of the filter with your fingernail while pinching the sides of the gimbal to steady it. I'm really hoping that these filters are indeed neutral for my video footage. Can't wait for tomorrow! [/QUOTE]
