Quick correction I own the Mini light, and the top knob does have a spring on it. It works just like the regular Mini matte box. At least mine does. Great video it helped me decide. I appreciate it. Keep up the good work.

That’s cool! Congratulations on the purchase! That’s cool you’re has the spring load ratchet style tightener for your flag. Yeah I had someone similar ask about the ND filters also, the one I have is the Tiffen ND filter and mine is to large of a diameter to fit in either one. I’m sure people will be able to fit different ND filter, it’s about the dimensions. That why I mentioned that I had the tiffen. Congratulations on the box, and thanks for checking out the video!!

Thank you for giving over the differences. I went with the mini but the light option looks better. Especially due to the 1/4 under the matte box for adding rods to keep it in place. The mini always spins out of place.
@FelipeAlmeida_media
@FelipeAlmeida_media Год назад
Thanks for checking out the video!! Yes that is a great point that I did not mention. The lite those have a a tendency of moving around. And the mini does not because it has the option to hold it in place from the bottom . Not only does it hold it in place, it help support the weight of your lens and anything you choose to attach to the matte box if you use the bottoms support. Thanks again!

... you mean the lite always spins out of place? the NON LITE one has rail support, the LITE one doesn't so i think what you're tryin to say is that the LITE version does NOT look better.
@FelipeAlmeida_media
@FelipeAlmeida_media Год назад
So the mini does not have a adapter in the bottom to support a rail support. So it could spins. But it’s not something that is always happening, but will depending on the movement your making. Hope that answers your questions. Thanks for checking it out.

Thanks for checking out the video! As far as the trays. They both come with the 4x5.56 tray for you to add your own ND filter. Now per Smallrig it does show that the lite has the ability to take a 4x4, bit u need to purchase that tray separate.

My lens' filter thread size is 67mm. I have a 72mm VND filter and step up rings and I'm planning to buy the mattebox. Am I going to use the (stacked) step up rings from 67mm to 72mm to attach my VND filter to my lens then use the mattebox's 72-95mm ring to be able to attach the mattebox?
@FelipeAlmeida_media
@FelipeAlmeida_media Год назад
First you would use the smallrig set up ring included with the Matt box in your case it’s the 67mm-95mm. That will secure the your lens to the Matt box. The other side of the smallrig set up rings has threads and you will attach your 72mm VND to it that way. The thread size is the same of your lens thread. So then you use your normal set up ring to go to 67mm to 72mm. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
@harrydelacruz5883
@harrydelacruz5883 Год назад
Just to be clear, I'm going to thread the included rings of the mattebox to my lens first (in my case 67-95mm), then attach the mattebox itself, and then thread my step up rings, 67mm up to 72mm, with the VND?

Dude I’m pretty sure you got to put on your VND filter first like you put your 82 mm into the 95mm step up ring Because it has the 82mm thread inside then put it through the matte box , that’s why your 82’s aren’t fitting , I just saw someone else’s video explaining it , and you did it the opposite

@Tonellacam yep I tried every way possible lol, and I watched similar videos also to see if I was doing something wrong lol if you notice his ND filter is smaller then the step up ring, were my ND filter circumference is larger then the step up ring itself by a fraction of a hair lol 😭. At the time I ended up purchasing another Tiffin (77mm) ND to fit cause I wanted to keep the same color, but now I have a K&F 82 no problem. It sucked and I was frustrated but all good now.
