Matthews Cutter - 40x40"

Cutters are square or rectangular frames with mounting pins attached. Used to control natural or artificial light. Can be used to protect the camera lens from flares, control spill light from other sources, or keep light from reaching an area on the set.

Newly designed 90° Cutter frames will make it possible to position the instrument over the top of the set wall or to use two or more units to create a box for better light control.

Matthews Floppy Flag (Top Hinge, 40 x 40")
Add this 40 x 40" Solid Floppy to your grip kit for easily rigged light control and cutting, with the option to open the flag into a large 40 x 80" black surface. Because Matthews has shaved 8" off of both the height and width of their traditional 4 x 4' floppy, this flag's compact size allows it to be transported in certain passenger vehicles without the need for a dedicated grip truck or cargo van.
Simply undo the hook-and-loop touch fasteners at the corners, and the top hinge Floppy "flops" opens to become a large 40 x 80" opaque flag that creates a tent-like structure. Its two sections are comprised of heavyweight commando cloth duvetyne for optimized blockage of incoming light transmissions. It is also an easy way to create negative fill on one side of the subject when your desired look requires a bit more contrast. Though its obvious application is shaping light to achieve a wide variety of looks from the same sources, it can also double as a sunshade while shooting on location or as a privacy screen in the studio. The frame is hollow steel tubing to cut down on weight, while the solid steel mounting rod can stand up to years of heavy use.
Matthews Matthbounce Floppy (40 x 40")
Add this 40 x 40" Matthbounce Floppy to your grip kit for easily rigged light control, with the option to open the flag into a large 40 x 80" reflective surface. Because Matthews has shaved 8" off both the height and width of their traditional 4 x 4' floppy, this bounce's compact size allows it to be transported in certain passenger vehicles without the need for a dedicated grip truck or cargo van.
Simply undo the hook-and-loop touch fasteners at the corners, and the top hinge Floppy "flops" opens to become a large 40 x 80" reflective surface that creates a tent-like structure for creating versatile washes of bounced light. Its two sections are comprised of heavyweight commando cloth duvetyne for optimized blockage of incoming light transmissions and an inner surface of Matthew's ultra-reflective Matthbounce fabric. Though its obvious application is shaping light to achieve a wide variety of looks from the same sources, it can also double in a pinch as a heat-resistant sunshade while shooting on location or as a privacy screen in the studio. The frame is hollow steel tubing to cut down on weight, while the solid steel mounting rod can stand up to years of heavy use.
Matthews White Artificial Silk Scrim (40 x 40")

The 40 x 40" White Artificial Silk Scrim from Matthews softens and diffuses direct light while bouncing some of it to elevate the ambient light level. The silk has a solid frame made of stainless steel tubing, absorbs approximately 1.6 stops of light, and has gold webbing around its edges to make it easily identifiable.

Don’t look for any alternatives. These are the better sized compared to 4X4. I bought 2 sets, I planning to buy one more. The only problem is the shipping charges. The current price $800+ accounts $300 for shipping charges and the actual items price is around $500.

Great quality

These are solid quality and perfect size to fit in my small SUV but still big enough to get the job done!!
