The Misfit Atom 4 x 5.65" / 4 x 4" Ultra Lightweight 2-Stage Clip-On Matte Box from Bright Tangerine is a small, lightweight yet strong, clamp-on matte box for lenses with an outer diameter of up to 114mm. It holds up to two 4 x 4" or 4 x 5.65" filters without using filter trays, and provides a wide field of view suitable for many wide-angle lenses even with two filters mounted.
The removable flexible hood is built to hold its shape over time, even in temperature extremes. The matte box with hood weighs in at under 7 ounces, only 3.5 ounces without the hood. This makes the matte box suitable for use with gimbals and Steadicams, and the removable hood makes the matte box an excellent choice for aerial shooting.

Bright Tangerine Misfit Atom Reviews
Great build quality
I've tried other cheaper matte boxes, but the build quality of Misfit Atom is off the chart. A solid piece of gear that would hopefully last for a long time!
Great for gimbals/Steadicam
I bought this on sale so I feel like the price was great for a piece of Bight Tangerine gear. Really love it and I'm sure it will become an important piece of my kit. Pros: -Love that you can take off the rubber piece and hunt for lens flares -Very light weight so it's great for a small gimbal or compact rig -Can rail mount if you want with an optional accessory -Has a top flag that can be purchased separately Cons: -Pretty pricy if it's not on sale -Clip on can be a bit janky -Putting two filters in this feels wrong (glass on glass) -This isn't really a matte box, it's a filter holder Key takeaway: If you need a compact filter holder that offers a little bit of flare protection, this is the product for you. If you need a lightweight matte box, there are better options out there in the same price range. Buy this is you're hunting for lens flares and still need a filter, if you're using a gimbal, or if you're flying it on a Steadicam.
