Matte Box - 3 Stage Swing-Away Deluxe Kit:

  1. Purpose and Function:

    • A matte box is an essential accessory for filmmakers and videographers. It serves several purposes:
      • Light Control: The matte box features barn doors and flags that allow precise control over how light enters the camera. You can adjust their positions to prevent unwanted flares or glare.
      • Filter Management: It holds filters (such as ND, polarizers, or diffusion) in front of the lens. Filters enhance creativity, manage exposure, and alter the image's look.
      • Lens Protection: Instead of using a lens cap, swing one of the flags over the lens to cover it. No more fumbling with caps during shoots.
  2. Filter Compatibility:

    • The kit accommodates both 4x4" and 4x5.65" professional filters.
    • These filters can rotate 360° individually, allowing for precise adjustments.
    • The convenience of using a matte box eliminates the need for multiple screw-on filters.
  3. Swing-Away Design:

    • The standout feature is the swing-away mechanism.
    • When mounted, the matte box can swing out and away from the camera body and lens.
    • This design facilitates faster lens swaps and easy access during shoots.
  4. Lens Compatibility:

    • The matte box works with various lenses, including APS-C, s35mm, Full Frame, and even Large Format Vista Vision lenses.
    • It accommodates lenses with different diameters.
  5. Construction and Accessories:

    • The kit includes:
      • Three fixed filter stages: Organize your filters efficiently.
      • One top flag: Shields from overhead light.
      • Five hard mattes: Shape the image and prevent stray light.
      • Height-adjustable swing-away bracket: Ensures flexibility.

Remember, a matte box enhances your filmmaking toolkit, providing versatility and professional-grade control over light and filters.
