GoPro Hero3 Hero4 lens hood and filter holder for DYS 3-axis SMART gimbal

thingiverse

This is a hood and filter holder for the DYS 3-axis SMART GoPro gimbal, carefully designed specifically for the Formatt Hitech GoPro Filters available at http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1032721-REG/hitech_htgpnd0_6kit5_0_6_neutral_density_filter.html. Each filter costs around 2 dollars, so I use them to protect the lens and decrease the shutter speed of the GoPro for smoother video. When a filter becomes scratched or dull, I simply throw it away and replace it with a new one. This part is designed for easy filter swapping in the field without requiring any tools. With a total weight of around 10g including screws and a filter, this hood or cap serves multiple purposes - primarily to reduce glare from the sun but mainly to prevent propeller shadow strobing. Since my GoPro was modified with a 4.35mm 10MP Lens featuring a 72 degree field of view, I am unsure if the hood won't be visible when using the stock lens, which is why I included a version without it. The part is secured to the gimbal bracket via two (x2) 4mm M2 screws, so you will need the bracket in order for it to fit properly. You can look at the pictures provided to figure out how to assemble it.
