Tilta MB-T16 Overview:
The Tilta Mirage Matte Box is designed for professionals looking for a lightweight, versatile matte box that can be easily adapted for handheld, gimbal, stabilizer, and drone setups. Built to clip onto lenses with a 95mm outer diameter, it offers a sturdy yet modular solution for film and digital cine cameras. Despite its rugged build, the Mirage Matte Box is lightweight, making it as portable as a standard 4 x 5.65" filter. It works seamlessly with Tilta's 95mm round filters via the included filter adapter, allowing for quick setup and configuration to match various shooting needs.
For effective light control, the matte box comes with a rigid hood and a removable top flag to minimize glare and prevent unwanted reflections. Additionally, four lens adapters (67mm, 72mm, 77mm, and 82mm) are included, enabling compatibility with a wide range of lenses. The matte box also comes with a protective soft case for safe storage and transport.
For added flexibility, the system is compatible with an optional 4 x 5.65" stackable filter holder, enabling the use of multiple filters. You can also add an optional variable ND (VND) filter system for precise exposure control. The modular components, such as the top flag, circular filter tray, filter protector, and rubber hood for close-up shots, can be configured as needed, making the Mirage highly adaptable. You can also attach an optional 15mm LWS rod clamp to transfer the weight off your lens when using larger filter systems or lenses with rotating fronts.
Aerodynamic Design: The matte box is engineered with integrated vents to minimize wind resistance, providing stability during high-speed shots, making it ideal for drone or vehicle-mounted filming.
Modular Configuration: The versatile modular system lets you customize the matte box for various shooting setups. You can strip it down to the essential 95mm filter holder or fully equip it with the 4 x 5.65" filter tray, lens hood, and top flag. For added stability, the matte box can be mounted onto 15mm rods using the optional LWS rod support.
95mm Circular Filter System: Tilta’s 95mm circular filter system is designed to be lightweight, offering a significant reduction in weight compared to traditional rectangular filters, making it easier to handle during mobile shoots.
Filter Options: An optional stackable 4 x 5.65" filter tray allows you to use standard rectangular filters, with space for one or two filters at a time, for increased creative control.
