Tilta Mirage Pro Matte Box Carbon Fiber with 3x 4x5.65 Filter Trays and VND Kit Option

Tilta Mirage Pro Matte Box Carbon Fiber with 3x 4x5.65 Filter Trays and VND Kit Option — Carbon fiber matte box weighing just 621.5 g, stacks up to 3 4x5.65 filters, magnetic quick-release hood, supports wide lenses down to 16mm

The Tilta Mirage Pro Matte Box has a matte carbon fiber body and a modular structure that is strong yet weighs just 621.5 g, so it won't weigh down your rig. It clamps onto 8 lens sizes: Clamp-On 95 / 110 / 114 / 136mm plus 67 / 72 / 77 / 82mm adapter rings (rings included in the Base Kit). It stacks up to 3 4x5.65 filters, with trays that accept 2–4mm thick filters so you can use many filter brands, and each tray has its own tie-down screw to lock the filter independently. The magnetic Quick Release hood can be removed to save weight on a gimbal while still holding all 3 filters. The 4-sided carbon Top Flag has side wings that open to 55° to block flare, with an Anti-Glare coating on both the flags and the inner walls of the body. A special opening angle and extra-slim profile support wide lenses down to 16mm without vignetting. Precision Tilt Control lets you tilt the filter with a knob to chase away reflections. It mounts to 15mm LWS rods with Swing Away, so you can change lenses without removing the matte box. The VND Kit adds a 114mm VND filter with step-less 1–7 stop adjustment (0.3–2.1 scale) and wireless ND control via the Nucleus Nano II motor.

FAQ

• Q: What is a 4x5.65 filter?
  A: It is the standard rectangular filter size used in filmmaking (in inches). Unlike round screw-in filters, they are faster to swap and the same filter can be used across lenses with different front diameters.
• Q: What is the difference between the VND Kit and the Base Kit?
  A: The VND Kit adds a 114mm VND filter adjustable from 1–7 stops and supports wireless ND control. The Base Kit is the matte box with 4 adapter ring sizes; filters are purchased separately.
• Q: Does the magnetic hood come off easily?
  A: No. The magnets hold firmly for normal use but can be removed quickly by hand. It is designed to save weight on a gimbal without having to remove the filters.
