Tilta MB-T16-VND Overview

Reduce the exposure of your image without touching the iris, ISO, or shutter speed by using the 95mm Variable ND Filter for Mirage Matte Box from Tilta. It slides into the Mirage, or it can be clamped directly onto a 95mm lens with the Lightweight Filter Clamp-On Adapter (available separately).

The Variable ND reduces the exposure by 1 to 9 stops, enabling you to keep the iris wide open for a shallow depth of field, abide by the 180° rule regarding shutter speed, and optimize your ISO to boost dynamic range. Rotate the VND, either by hand or via an optional wireless motor, to find the density that blocks the maximum amount of extraneous light, freeing the other elements of the camera to pursue a specific artistic effect.

Color Fidelity throughout Entire Range
This variable ND filter is designed to have a minimal impact on the color of the light that reaches your sensor.
For the Mirage Matte Box
This variable ND slides snugly into the Tilta Mirage, ensuring that a lens with a 95mm front diameter is perfectly covered. Alternatively, it can be clamped directly onto the lens via the Lightweight Filter Clamp-On Adapter (available separately).
Compatible with the Wireless Motor
The module that controls the VND rotation is compatible with the Tilta Wireless Motor (available separately), enabling camera operators to remotely control the variable ND's rotation to find its desired effect.
The Physics of Variable Neutral Density Filters
Variable NDs consist of two polarized layers that block increasingly more light the closer to perpendicular they are to one another. This ND has hard stops before reaching the maximum and minimum settings to prevent unwanted X-pattern interference and reduce autofocus and light metering issues caused by the polarized layers.

Tilta MB-T16-VND Reviews

I'm a fan

This thing is a well priced workhorse and it works. Does it add some tint to my glass? Yes. So if you're shooting with two cams or more, it might be a good idea to use on all your cameras or you can fix it all in post without too much trouble. I'm a fix-it-in prep guy, myself, so I bought one of these and the Tilta Mirage mattebox for both of my cameras so my interview angles match perfectly. With these bad boys, I can expose my windows properly and add more light on my interview subject and everything looks natural and balanced. They're a good buy.

Great filter!

NO aggressive color shift and the wheel to rotate the filter is extremely smooth, very easy to delicately adjust on a gimbal!

No, The Tilta MB-T12 mattebox would not work with Titlta Mirage filters. The following matte box model supports the Mirage matte box filters. https://bhpho.to/3tbs4W8
