Control the light into your lens and add filters with this Tilta Mirage Matte Box with Motorized VND & Circular Polarizer Kit put together by B&H. The kit includes the Mirage matte box, a top flag, a motorized VND module, a circular filter tray, a Nucleus Nano motor with adapter, a wireless motor controller, a battery/charger set, a power supply, four adapter rings, and a carry case.
The lightweight matte box can easily mount onto your camera, drone, or gimbal rig to provide light control and add a filter system with motorized VND operation. The motor turns the VND module using the wireless controller, which comes in handy with constantly changing light conditions. The matte box allows you to add optional circular filters, such as the included circular polarizer, to the front of your lens while allowing the addition of 4 x 5.65" filters on the front of the matte box.
Built rugged for daily use on your camera rig yet lightweight for handheld, gimbal, stabilizer, or drone work, the Tilta Mirage Motorized VND Kit is a modular component system combining a matte box that clips onto 95mm OD and a variable ND system, and a wireless controller that allows you to precisely adjust the ND effect from 0.3 to 2.7 stops when needed. The matte box weighs about the same as a standard 4 x 5.65" glass filter, and it accepts Tilta's 95mm round filters with the included filter adapter. The modular design means you can configure the matte box to match your needs on a shot-by-shot basis.
The rigid hood and removable top flag aid in cutting glare and protecting your image from overhead flares. Four included lens adapters enable mounting the Mirage Matte Box on lenses with 67, 72, 77, or 82mm threaded fronts. The included 15mm LWS rod clamp can be attached, allowing you to mount the Mirage on rods to take the weight off your lens or use lenses with rotating fronts. An optional 4 x 5.65" stackable filter holder lets you mount 4 x 5.65" filters on the matte box. Other modular components, such as a top flag, dual circular filter tray, Nano motor, filter protector, and rubber hood for shooting up against windows are available separately.
Clouds will billow off the page and a flowing stream will reveal its stony bed when using the 95mm Circular Polarizer 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 polarizer blocks the light that appears as haze in the sky or a reflection off the surface of the water. Rotate the filter, either by hand or via an optional wireless motor, to find the angle that blocks the maximum amount of unwanted light, highlighting your subject and boosting the contrast of your image.
