Which filter, battery, and card does the DJI Air 2S need?

The specification points at a filter, a battery and a card.

What to buy

This page carries affiliate links. A purchase pays this account a commission, at no extra cost to you.

Filter

An ND filter set made for the DJI Air 2S

The lens is fixed, so an ND filter is the only way to hold the shutter near 1/50 second in daylight. Buy the set cut for this model, because a filter for another one will not seat.

Battery

A DJI Air 2S Intelligent Flight Battery, 3750 mAh

One battery runs 31 minutes. A spare is the difference between one flight and a whole session.

Card

A microSD card rated V30, which is UHS-I Speed Class U3

DJI publishes no card list for the DJI Air 2S. It reads a UHS-I card, and U3 is the floor for 4K, so a V30 card is the safe answer. It holds 8 GB (approx. 7.2GB available space) inside.
