    Neutral Density filters for photogrammetry mapping?

    I've just started using my Evo 2 Pro for photogrammetry mapping missions. I've had some problems with hot spots when flying near solar noon (sometimes I can't control when I can fly). I was wondering if anyone is, or has, used ND or polarizing filters when photographing for photogrammetry...
