Matthews Open End Scrim 24x36" Overview

This 24 x 36" Open End Single Scrim from Matthews is an essential component to a complete grip kit, giving one the total creative flexibility of precise light manipulation. This stainless steel frame features one layer of Black Bobinett lighting control fabric to reduce the intensity of light in a given area.
This specific frame is equipped with a single layer of Black Bobinett fabric, which reduces the effective illumination of the selected area by 1/2 stop. This is indicated by the green fabric which lines the frame. Light reduction strength can be finely tuned by rotating the scrim, thus increasing the amount of netting light needs to pass through before hitting the subject. All Matthews Open End Scrims are constructed from rigid stainless steel and sport a 3/8" pin for rigging to standard grip heads, with an integrated support that can be used to hang the scrim from a C-stand handle when not in use. A nearly invisible length of piano wire is strung across the open side of the frame in order to effectively modify light by keeping the fabric taught without casting any additional shadows.

Whats the difference between this and B&H ...

Whats the difference between this and B&H #MAS2436CSW thats almost double in price?
Asked by: Joseph
The difference between the two items would be the quality and the light reduction. The Matthews 24 x 36" Open-End Scrim (1/4 White Silk) (B&H # MAS2436QSW • MFR # 149550) has a light reduction of 0.6 stops of light, whereas the more expensive Matthews Open End Scrim - 24x36" - White China Silk (B&H # MAS2436CSW • MFR # 149556) has better build quality and has a light reduction of 1 full stop of light.

It says 1/4 stop silk but in the specs it says two stops of light. Which is it?
Asked by: Jamal
2 1/3 stop at most, depends on the distance of the flag and the light source.

Does this diffuse enough direct sunlight to cover ...

Does this diffuse enough direct sunlight to cover a single interview subject? Or is 48x48 better?
Asked by: Jason
We would highly suggest a 48x48 to accommodate you subject matter needs. A 24x36 would not give enough space coverage as needed.
