Matte Box Solution for UNDER $100! Worked on my BMPCC 6k and 4K

[@wokthedragon]

Nice review. I bought this for my Canon lens' hoping that I could somehow mount it to my Rokinon 14mm T3.1 with a non-removable sun shield. To my surprise it slid on snugly and solidly with no modifications needed.

[@jeanchindeko5477]

Thanks to put my comments in your video, good video on this Tilta Mini Matte Box. They also release this very affordable manual follow focus who work very well.

[@my2cents198]

Thats mad !!... that 6K rig is beast !!!

[@TheContentShak]

Thanks, seems to well so far!

[@justingilbert4026]

Awesome! I was just thinking I wasn't going to be able to work a $700 matte box into my first set of gear for a C200 setup I'm hoping to build. This video also made me want to add a BMPCC 6K in the mix later when I expand lol

[@TheContentShak]

C200 is a fantastic camera! The matte box is small and sleek. If you need the and raw and to punch in the 6k is a good choice for the bucks

[@justingilbert4026]

The Content Shak exactly. I want to work on both short film and documentary/commercial style video and sometimes you have to be able to set your shot a little wide to not miss something that only happens once. 6k would give me that freedom to shoot wide in a pinch and not have to worry about having too much negative space in my composition. Also the C200 only shooting Cfast makes RAW on it out of the question for long format video but the 6k with ssd compatibility really solves my problem there

[@TheContentShak]

Justin Gilbert keep in mind that shooting in 6k has its downsides, even with a 2t drive it’s limited, so I choose shots and time of shots fairly short for the ones I really need to have options for. Price to everything right?

[@justingilbert4026]

The Content Shak definitely. I could spend weeks going back and forth from video to video to find the perfect solution to everything but sometimes, like in the case of raw file sizes, it’s just unavoidable.

OMG this is Great work thank you And Please please tell me can i use #all Rokinon cine lenses with #BMPCC 6k without #adapter ?! Please And thank you so so soooo much

[@TheFilmmakingChannel]

Can you recommend a good ND filter for that matte box? In Amazon preferably since I’m in Europe. Thank you very much.

[@DutchAussieProductions]

Thanks for the video. I like your minimal setup on the BMPCC 4K. What are your top and side handles? Are they SmallRig?

[@TheContentShak]

Thank you! They are both small rig: side wooden and top nato, in the description below I have links for them towards the bottom! They are great and had them for 2 years very solid.

[@twistedpeachmedia2067]

Great video! Is that thing light enough to use it on a gimbal?

[@TheContentShak]

Having the clamp on capability will allow that, this things is really light:)

where do you buy those kind of filters?

Can you use 4x4 filters without them rattling around?

[@Visualsthatgohard]

Your lens on 4k is meike? And it fits well ??

[@TheContentShak]

Great lens yes, great fit.

[@mrhobs]

I wanted something like this, but they won't fit on 95mm (front diameter) lenses right? Also, I kinda wanted better filtration options anyway... nice little matte box though.

[@TheContentShak]

They are a little limited but for under 100 bucks they do 90%. Thank for watching!

[@mrhobs]

@@TheContentShak Yeah, and doesn't hurt that they have a nice clean look. And no problem, I like your style. Keep it up bro. (I just subbed as well when I left that comment.) 🙂🤙 Side note, I ended up ordering the Basecamp. Expensive at first glance, but it comes with 2 high quality NDs plus the VND polarizer as you probably know, so still somewhat comparable to matte boxes of its size. Plus I saved a hundred bucks on eBay. I'm sort of drawn to companies that do everything themselves, like Apple, Nintendo, and Tesla making their own hardware and software. Hope the Basecamp works out.

[@FKfilmphotography]

Is it possible to use a regular screw filter directly on the lens in addition to the matt box?

[@TheContentShak]

Ferhan Khan Photography there is a thread inside and outside so if you have the right size it can screw on the actual ring that connect to the matte box

[@FKfilmphotography]

@@TheContentShak great suppose that gets round the single filter issue. Thanks

[@TheContentShak]

Ferhan Khan Photography to some extent yes abut if you put a variable Nd keep in mind that turning it will be an issue if it’s on the inside opposes to outside thread.

[@thomasfeezel5633]

Great video and that's a dope set up! Was also curious the song you used in this video?

[@TheContentShak]

Thomas Feezel I mainly use Artlist for sound these days check them out.

[@thomasmellia1784]

Great video, quick question what brand LARGE matte box is on your 6K?

[@TheContentShak]

I had this one for many years purchased open box not sure of the brand to be honest but I think it’s a genus.

[@thomasmellia1784]

@@TheContentShak Thank you for responding so quickly, I enjoy your videos keep them coming!

[@eyelessfilmproductions3314]

I'm looking for a Matte Box for 35mm, do you know any that would work?

[@TheContentShak]

Depends on type of lens you have to screw in a ring to the front of your lens, check the specs. Most smaller lenses you would need step up rings

[@ekphotography]

I wondering how you can use a VND filter? Is it possible? And read several complaints about the 4x5 filters being to far from the lens is not good. But seems like a good price until you want to fork out 599.00 for the polapro base camp.

[@TheContentShak]

I looked at that one as well, my other matte boxes are far from the glass as well. Haven’t run into an issue. (Yet:)

[@ekphotography]

The Content Shak i love how the polapro VND works.. but quite spendy. But with the Tilta can you put a VND filter on the outside ring and spin it freely? I would appreciate if you can confirm that. I was about to order one but not sure if it is possible. So the 77 adaptors have a thread to put a VND on them and you can reach in to turn them?

[@TheContentShak]

If your asking If i’m an use a circular variable filter as well as with the ring. I think that’s what your asking:) I have the supplied ring then installed my variable nd and it works threads on the supplied rings are on the outside and inside.

[@katlis]

I was wondering the same, and it turns out the rings do have inner threads EXCEPT for the 82mm, which is what I use for all my circular filters. :(

[@ekphotography]

katlis that is good to know and weird actually.. many people use 82mm filters. I use to but switched to 77mm bc I do not have any 82mm lenses anymore.

[@lukaspictures]

Hi, can you meassure the diameter of mattebox hole? I have cinemoded vintage primes with 85mm simmod rings on each lens and just wondering If I could this mattebox without tilta rings. Thanks. :)

[@TheContentShak]

In specs description btw.. 82 mm Opening

[@emilianobolado7763]

Will this work with the BMPCC 4K and vintage canon FD lenses?

[@narrm8672]

Hey! What 4x56 filter do you show in the video? I got the matte box and wanted to get filters for it

[@TheContentShak]

At the moment the only 2 non circular filters I own are the Tiffan promist 1.4 4x4 and cavision fg pl nd both 4x4

[@narrm8672]

The Content Shak thanks!!

[@NirnBootMod]

Can I put an 82mm screw on filter on the lens with the Matte Box in front? I have to use a screw on filter since my cameras are all full spectrum.

[@TheContentShak]

I believe so but will double check. I’m using a circular filter on my rokinon 50 mm and rh matte box at the moment

What mattebox do you have at 5:20?

[@TheContentShak]

It’s actually an old genus matte box, I’ve had it for over 6 years..

[@dwaynefoong]

is it possible to have a round BPM on the lens and screw on the adapter for the matte box?

[@TheContentShak]

If the thread is right I’m assuming you can screw In a pro mist. I tried a variable circular nd and and it worked

[@dwaynefoong]

The Content Shak that sounds like a plan!

[@JitDawgBruhDang]

The Content Shak i couldn’t fit my VND on with this mattebox

[@TheContentShak]

Clout9Cinema did you try both inner and outer thread? What is the thread size?

[@JLozdrummin]

So I use gh5 with 58mm and 67mm ring I know 67mm will work with this Matt Box but what about 58mm? From B&H it listed what can fit (see below) I want to use for my Lumix lens with 58mm ring with it. Any suggestions to make it fit? 67mm Adapter Ring 72mm Adapter Ring 77mm Adapter Ring 82mm Adapter Ring

[@TheContentShak]

Jake Lozano you can use step up or step down rings you have threads on the inside and outside of the rings provided

[@JLozdrummin]

The Content Shak so the step up ring ur referring to is the one from the link u provided from amazon?

Can you use a Variable ND along with this Matte Box. I plan on using the Matte Box clamped to the lends of my GH5S with the VND still on since I don't have 4X4 filters atm.

Short answer yes!

i dont want to be rude but i didnt watch the whole video, just skipped through. the rig looks pretty nice but i am wondering how you hold it when you use the left grip, do you hold it by the follow focus and if so dont you accidentally pull focus when you dont want to?

We also use one, great with BMPCC 4k or 6K cause is lightweight 🙂 We are new to YT so check us out and help us to survive 😃

[@darrylsmith3102]

The problem with these inexpensive Matt Boxes is, They aren't Deep enough and have NO side Flags.

[@ThatCampingLad]

Which means you have to use 4x5.65 filters too and only one at that.

[@TheOrisya]

tilta brand for under 10 dollars? wow...thats interesting

[@redmonkeyarmy]

using 4x4 filter on this matte box is not advisable.

[@TheContentShak]

Not advisable, but usable. Since it’s pretty close to the lens seems to work ok.
