gsxrpilot Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 It's easy, just search Neutral Density Filter on Amazon. Get one to fit your camera. I use them on my GoPro's. It's just a dark filter. It serves to lower the light through the lens and thus gets the camera to slow the shutter speed to compensate. If you have a full featured video camera or if I'm shooting video with my Canon 60D, I can manually adjust the F stop to get the same effect. But on a GoPro, Contour, Garmin, etc. the f stop is automatic. So use a neutral density filter to get it to adjust its self. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauder Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Looks like you will want a 1.5 neutral density filter for a GoPro camera. http://www.snakeriverprototyping.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsxrpilot Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Any one will work, I just buy the cheapest I can find on Amazon. The brightness of the day also makes a difference so no need to be exact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
