Is it possible to remove the top handle from the matte box?
Asked by: Gwendoline
Hello Gwendoline, Thank you for your question! Indeed, you would have to dismantle a good amount of the internal frame to access the screws on the inside of the top handle mount, or if you have a tiny 90 degree allen key you can access it. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team

Does this have a 138 rota pola?

Does this have a 138 rota pola?
Asked by: Michael
We're afraid not. This kit does not come with any filters. However you will be able to fit the Tiffen Multi Rota Tray with 138mm Circular Polarizer, B&H # TIROTAPOLCP, which is in a 4 x 5.6" tray. https://bhpho.to/2Cb9TF1

Hi, Does can anyone let me know what cases they use for this matte box and related filters? The more options the better. Cheers. Aarron
Asked by: Aarron
Hello Aarron, Thank you for your question! Are you referring to transport cases? We can give you the dimensions of the box the matte box is shipped in if that can help. (15x13x8 inches). You can easily find a variety of transport cases on B&H. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team.

Does this mattebox have problem with sliding up and down the 15mm rod like JTZ has? where it gets stuck at the start of the rod.
Asked by: Ivan
I can confirm my JTZ (Owned by Shape) has the same problem. Have you found an alternative? What matte box did you end up getting? Or do you switch the rods according to the lens?

I have 100mm x 150mm graduated ND filters and want to know if I can vary/slide them to shift the position of graduation and also if 100mm x 150mm is a size that fits in 4 x 5.65" since not sure if they're equivalent or not?
Asked by: Christopher
It will not fit.. While 100mm is just under 4 inches, 150mm is over 5.65 inches at 5.9 inches. A 100 x 150mm filter will be too large.
