    • @daveharrison9248
      @daveharrison9248 6 месяцев назад

      I also use magnetic 82mm filters. How would this work with this matt box in terms of mounting different lens etc. Can I keep the magnetic circular filter rings on all my lenses and then just snap on the VND for example all while also having this matte box?. Primarily I like to be able to quickly swap out my lenses and because I have magnetic rings on them all (82mm) I don;t ever have to worry about screwing anything on anywhere . I this still possible or do I now need 82-95mm adapter on all my lenses?? Sorry I'm not 100% clear

    Hey! great video, but one of the points of a matte box is to be able to use the same filter for all of your lenses, I don't see how this is possible if you have to screw the nd to the lens adapter. Then the only option you have is go with the rectangular filters, right?

    Unfortunately it does not work with Freewell magnetic VND filters that have a diameter of 82 mm. The recess in the matte box is too small, so the filter is too large on the outside. With 77 mm and smaller it will work with a step-up ring.

    Can a 95mm filter be applied to this setup instead of your 82mm filters?

    Can I use a circular filter and the 4x5 filter (for example Pro Mist circular and then a CPL?)

      Yes you can use a circular and a square filter but you have to be leery of ghosting. So really pay attention or you will go to edit the footage and be disappointed

      ⁠@@AOJOPhotographyOk thanks, and the ghosting isn’t an issue with the two circular lenses? To be honest I don’t know how you connected the Tiffen 67mm filter and then the adapter on top of it? (To be fair my first camera is coming in the mail so maybe it’s obvious then) It does not look like the Filter had a way to connect? Also will I need aftermarket step up lenses. As am starting at 58mm for my lens.
