It's a game changer
This set was an answered prayer for me, especially for my Pocket 1, which has a narrower FOV than my Pocket 2. The gain in width is small but its there and it allows a little more leeway with reframing and even a little extra stabilisation in post should you need to (though it's the amazing stabilisation the DJI Pocket cameras have that makes me prefer them over jelly wobble electronic stabilisation in many action cams). The game changer bit of course is wider FOV AND ND filter, both camera gimbals handle the extra weight without issue, I find the image quality excellent, in fact, it blows me away, I generally shoot in 4k and, after editing, export in 1080p which is fine for what I want.The build quality is very good, storage case fantastic and price affordable. IMHO these are a must have, especially if you have the Pocket 1 which, on occasions is just a bit too narrow.In use in the field it can be really fiddly on the go, especially if you're juggling camera, filter storage box and selected filter, I'd advise somewhere to put some of it down, or like me, employ a wife or partner as camera crew assistant, you really don't want to be searching for these tiny filters on the ground.The only really minor negative is that I'd have liked an ND 4 just to give that extra step between no ND and the first ND 8 of the set but I don't stick absolutely to the 180⁰ rule anyway so I don't mind a slightly faster shutter than recommended to keep exposure correct.Update 14 Dec 2021:I did have an issue recently where the ND16 filter glass fell out of the tiny frame. I tried to glue it back in and made a complete balls up smearing glue on the the filter glass. After contacting Freewell and owning up to my stupidity they still organised a replacement under warranty. Great customer service, nice one Freewell, still loving this wide angle lens ND filter kit and thoroughly recommend the product and the company.

All you need for 4K video
If you want to make professional looking 4k movies you will have to respect the 180 degree rule to avoid overexposure . The DJI pocket 2 can lower the ISO to a minimum but that is not enough. You can buy ND filters which can be stuck onto the existing fixed lens but if you want to take good Wide Angle shots you have to add a wide angle adapter to the lens. This Freewell set offers a wide angle adapter and 4 ND filter with different densities. These filters are placed magnetically behind the adapter lens and the combination snaps on the existing lens, also held by a magnet. Beware ! this is not a very strong magnet so watch out when making abrupt movements. My experience with this set is excellent. Image quality is very good . Only minor negative is the cost. . .

A good purchase for people looking to control light while filming with a wide field of view
This review is based almost completely on my use of the Freewell wide angle lens. I purchased the package that included the anamorphic lens but I've had limited use for it. It is clear and crisp and the below should apply to it as well as the wide-angle lens, but please beware.So, getting started: This wide-angle lens is a really good, and an excellent step up from the one included with the Pocket 2. You attach the magnetized ND filters to the back of the lens, and then place it on the Pocket 2. I've never had it fall off while using it, though obviously as it's magnetized you shouldn't brush it against anything or knock it as it will come off as you would expect.The case is acrylic, and feels pretty cheap. But it does the job, and doesn't show any signs of breaking or falling apart. Components are either held inside the case magnetically (the ND filters themselves) or in a foam enclosure (the wide-angle and anamorphic lenses). They fit securely and don't rattle around, and I've never had them pop out or otherwise come loose in a way that would damage them.The Pocket 2 can struggle sometimes in environments with intense sunlight or otherwise hostile weather (such as bright, overcast skies), so this allows you to get the lighting under control while maintaining a wild field of view. The lens doesn't reduce the image quality or otherwise taint it beyond reducing the amount of light hitting the sensor.All in all - a good purchase. Freewell makes excellent gear and this package is no exception. I highly recommend them for anyone that wants the best of both worlds (ND + wide angle).

Weak magnets, you will lose them
Would not recommend. Very weak magnets. Lost the anamorphic lens on the very first try. A tiny bush of force will pop these off and they fall on the ground never to be found again. Very stupid design, should have used an elastic band round the back of the camera.

Anamorphic is Pointless
Bought the kit mainly to use ND filters with the wide angle and anamorphic lens. Be aware that the anamorphic lens is only 1.15 so it gives your 15% more side view. BUT in order to get proper wide screen you need 1.33-1.35 so you either have a non standard ratio which is not widescreen or you have to over stretch the footage which defeats the purpose of the lens.
