[QUOTE="Mr Geek, post: 77350, member: 15144"] Light has direction based on where the sun is located relative to the target area the camera is pointed at and the sunlight being reflected back to you (aka The glare). It is the light bouncing off the surfaces of the land/water or objects back to your location/camera that the polarizer blocks. As you rotate the polarizing element you can see in the image how your scene is affected, you choose the look you want as you adjust/rotate it. Again, remember as you fly and change direction the filtering will change because you are filtering directional light. Check out that article I linked from [URL='https://djiphotoacademy.com/polarizer-filter-drone-photography/'][B]djiphotoacademy[/B][/URL] above, it should explain most of your questions and also help you decide if you want to use a polarizer on your drone. You may opt to wait on including polarization on your filters. I think an ideal setup would be two sets of ND filters PL and non-PL. The thing to keep in mind is the Neutral Density filter will let you obtain smoother video footage by manually setting shutter speed of 60 that matches the Spark's 30 fps capture rate and the polarizer will let you remove the sun glare giving your imagery much deeper colors and allow seeing into/under the surface of water. The downside of polarizing is it IS directional. [/QUOTE]
