Great Product for the $
I have always been a fan of Cavision matte boxes and have used them for 8 years. This is an excellent matte box for the money. It is adjustable up and down and the French flag can be locked in position. It also comes with one 4 x 5.65 filter holder and two 4 x 4 filter holders. I had to flip the 15mm rod mounts 180 degrees to be compatible with a DSLR but not a draw back at all. What keeps this item from getting 4 stars is the price of 4 x 5.65 filters. You only need the 4 x 5.65 filters if you're shooting super wide angle. Also this item does not come with donuts to block out the light.
Non User Friendly
I purchased the Cavision Mattbox to use it with my 5D Mark II rig, and I find it not user friendly at all. - It is very difficult to control the upper shades. - Side shades do not exist. - It is not sturdy enough and it causes rig instability. Otherwise, the filter sliders are great and the eiders 5.65 feature is brilliant specially with the grad filters.
