I’m in Manteca! I actually grew up in Stockton. Greetings!

Ok, so I did two 360s and a 180, one right after the other, with the UV filter attached. They won't win any artistic awards, but they didn't cause any gimbal overloads either. So in my case these filters totally good to go so far, the last thing I have to test is taking video in Sport Mode.

lol!! Okay, I'll test it today when I decide to get out of bed. [emoji12]

Still too foggy out here in Central California for me to do any meaningful tests; I've never done a 360 shot but if it can be done at a height of less than 10 feet then I'll totally try it out today.

I almost pulled the trigger on this item and its ND8 counterpart, but at 15 bucks a piece it made more sense to me to just go ahead and get the 6-filter set I eventually ordered for just 8 dollars more than two of these filters: PGY-Tech Filter Lens for Spark (MRC ND16)

Oh, that totally, totally happened. It was the first time I'd ever dealt with that. I lost LOS of the Spark so I stupidly activated RTH - it obediently rose to the RTH height, and then got stuck there because the fog made it think that it was only 2 feet above the ground! Every attempt I made to...

Okay! So while today is way too foggy out here to try a video with the ND filters, it was decent enough to try a couple of 9-shot panos with the “expendable” UV filter. Below are the two pictures I was able to take - they’re not going to win any artistic awards, but the entire time it was making...

I'm almost positive this is the same item, check it out: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075ZQTPJH/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1515775276&sr=8-1-spons&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=anbee+spark+filter&psc=1

Sure, no worries! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076P8C5JD/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8

I ordered a set of filters just like these, but they were labeled as Penivo instead of Anbee: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076P8C5JD/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 If the weather is agreeable tomorrow here in Central Cali, I'll give that 9-shot horizontal pano a try and let...

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...

[DISCLAIMER: I totally do not get any type of compensation for the linked product. Just passing along what I've found.] I'm sure the PolarPro and PGYTECH filters are great, but I honestly didn't want to spend upwards of a $100 for a full set of ND filters. So when I saw this on Amazon for just...

This is actually a skin from slickwraps.com - the 50% Black Friday sale was too good to pass up! [emoji1]

My Spark!
