The camera comes with 2 built in ND filters, a 2 and 4-stop, which can be used together, so that you can shoot wide open for low depths of field in bright lift.

Another feature sure to make underwater cinematographers happy? Slow-mo. The FS700 can capture footage 960 fps at a reduced resolution and at 240 fps at 1080p. Slow motion great whites, anyone?
